Convert UP0 to another file type
To convert your UP0 file to another format, you need SHIMIM or other GIS software.
Convert a file to UP0
To convert other file formats to the "Cadastral Survey Data" file type, you need software like SHIMIM or a similar tool.
About UP0 files
A .UP0 file is a specialized Cadastral Parcel Update file generated by the Iran Cadastral System (SHIMIM). These files are strictly formatted to store geospatial vector data, specifically defining land boundaries, property lines, and ownership attributes within the Iranian national registry. While critical for official surveyors and the Deeds and Properties Registration Organization of Iran, the format poses significant interoperability challenges for architects, civil engineers, and property owners. A common problem is that .UP0 files are proprietary to the SHIMIM ecosystem; standard GIS applications like QGIS or ArcGIS, and CAD software like AutoCAD, typically cannot open them natively without specialized plugins or intermediate middleware. This "proprietary lock-in" effectively creates a silo where data exists but is inaccessible for general visualization or planning. To make this data usable for architectural design, site planning, or simple viewing on a map, users must convert .UP0 files to more universal standards. For engineering and drafting, converting to DXF or DWG preserves vector precision. For visualization on satellite imagery, converting to KML (Keyhole Markup Language) allows for immediate viewing in Google Earth. For broader GIS analysis, the SHP (Shapefile) format is the industry standard target.
Convert.Guru analyzes your UP0 file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert UP0 file to CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, YML, TOML, INI, CFG, CONF, DAT, DB or SQL, you can use SHIMIM or similar software from the "Cadastral Data Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert DBF, XML, SQLITE, XLSX, SQL, TSV, ACCDB, YAML, MDB, CSV, ODS or JSON files to UP0, try SHIMIM or another comparable tool in the "Cadastral Data Storage" category.
The UP0 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 UP0 converter.
