About GSH files

The GSH file format is a lesser-known file type primarily used for storing geospatial data, often associated with GIS (Geographic Information System) applications. These files can include vector and raster data, making them versatile yet complex. Due to their specialized nature, converting GSH files can present challenges, particularly in maintaining data integrity and usability across different platforms.

To convert GSH files, you typically require specialized software. One popular choice is QGIS, an open-source GIS application. QGIS supports exporting GSH files to formats like .shp (Shapefile), .kml (Keyhole Markup Language), and .geojson, among others. Another reliable software is FME (Feature Manipulation Engine) by Safe Software, which offers extensive conversion capabilities.

When converting GSH files, it's important to consider the compatibility of the target format with your intended use. For example, while .shp is widely supported in GIS software, it may not retain all the complex attributes of a GSH file. Similarly, converting to .kml can be useful for integrating with Google Earth but may not support all data types.

Despite the availability of desktop software, these tools can often be complex and difficult for average users. This is where Convert.Guru comes into play. By using the free and user-friendly online platform, you can simply drag-and-drop your GSH files to convert them effortlessly into various formats. Convert.Guru ensures a smooth conversion process without the need for specialized knowledge or software installation.


The GSH Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.

When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.

Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best GSH converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
