Convert GEOJSON to another file type

To convert your GEOJSON file to another format, you need QGIS or other GIS software.

Convert a file to GEOJSON

To convert other file formats to the "Geospatial Vector Data" file type, you need software like QGIS or a similar tool.


About GEOJSON files

A .GEOJSON file is an open standard format designed for representing simple geographical features, along with their non-spatial attributes, based on JavaScript Object Notation. It encodes geometries like points, line strings, and polygons using WGS84 coordinates, making it the de facto standard for web mapping applications and APIs like Mapbox and Leaflet. While highly compatible with web technologies, raw .GEOJSON files present significant challenges for end-users: they are text-based scripts rather than visual maps, meaning you cannot simply drag them into a word processor or standard image viewer to see the geography. Large datasets often result in bloated file sizes that are slower to parse than binary equivalents like SHP. Additionally, many hardware GPS units and legacy desktop applications (such as Google Earth) do not natively support direct GeoJSON ingestion. To bridge this gap, users should convert .GEOJSON to KML or KMZ for immediate viewing in Google Earth, to GPX for upload to Garmin/GPS devices, or to SHP for robust analysis in software like ArcGIS Pro. For non-GIS workflows, converting to CSV allows for data analysis in spreadsheets, while SVG enables graphic editing in tools like Adobe Illustrator.

Convert.Guru analyzes your GEOJSON file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted JSON, GIS, KML, SHP, SVG, GEO, ZIP, UMAP, PDF, TXT, KMZ, OSM and FLP files.


FAQ

If you want to convert GEOJSON file to KML, GPX, SVG, DXF, MBTILES, OSM, PNG, XML, SHP, KMZ, TOPOJSON or TIF, you can use QGIS or similar software from the "Geospatial Data Interchange" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….

To convert LAZ, KMZ, DTM, CSV, DEM, PRJ, LAS, GPX, DSM, SHP, DBF or KML files to GEOJSON, try QGIS or another comparable tool in the "Geospatial Data Interchange" category.



The GEOJSON Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our GEOJSON converter.
