GeoJSON File Format - Features and Conversion
GeoJSON is a widely-used geospatial data interchange format that encodes geographic features using lightweight JSON syntax. Designed for simplicity, interoperability, and ease of use, GeoJSON provides a powerful way to represent geometric shapes, properties, and coordinate reference systems across various applications.
What is GeoJSON?
GeoJSON files describe points, line strings, polygons, and multi-geometries using a standardized WGS84 coordinate system. It supports rich attribute data, making it ideal for mapping applications, geospatial databases, and spatial analysis tools. As an open format based on JSON, it is human-readable, easily parsed, and supported by a wide range of software platforms.
Key Features of GeoJSON
- JSON-Based Structure: The GeoJSON format relies on JSON (JavaScript Object Notation), making files lightweight, readable, and easy to validate or manipulate across different programming environments.
- Support for Geometric Types: GeoJSON supports Point, LineString, Polygon, MultiPoint, MultiLineString, and MultiPolygon geometries, providing flexibility for complex geospatial representations.
- Standard Coordinate System: Features are based on the WGS84 reference system (latitude and longitude), ensuring compatibility with GPS data and mapping applications worldwide.
- No Styling Information: Unlike other geospatial file formats, GeoJSON focuses solely on geometry and properties, not appearance or style, leaving visualization aspects to the rendering software.
Convert and Work with GeoJSON Maps
Use Automapki Application to import, export, and convert GeoJSON files directly within CAD platforms like AutoCAD, BricsCAD, and ZWCAD. Automapki automatically manages coordinate system conversions and projects GeoJSON features onto georeferenced DWG drawings, ensuring perfect spatial accuracy. Easily integrate precise CAD designs with real-world geospatial data for comprehensive mapping and design workflows.
Google Earth KMZ Placemark File Format
The KMZ file format is a compressed version of KML (Keyhole Markup Language) files, bundling associated resources - such as images, textures, 3D models, and overlays - into a single, efficient archive. Designed for sharing complex geospatial projects, KMZ files are natively supported by Google Earth and Google Earth Pro, making them ideal for professional geographic data visualization and distribution.
Key Features and Benefits of KMZ Files
- Efficient ZIP Compression: KMZ files use standard ZIP compression to dramatically reduce file size, optimize storage space, and enable faster uploads and downloads compared to standalone KML files.
- Comprehensive Geospatial Data Support: Support for points, line strings, polygons, overlays, and 3D models (Collada DAE) allows KMZ files to deliver rich, interactive geographic content.
- Wide Software Compatibility: KMZ files can be seamlessly opened, edited, and shared across popular geospatial applications such as Google Earth, Google Maps, ArcGIS, QGIS, and more, ensuring smooth project collaboration.
KMZ File Conversion Made Simple
With our Automapki Application, you can easily import and export KMZ files within AutoCAD, BricsCAD, and ZWCAD environments. Quickly convert DWG entities - including points, curves, polygons, 3D solids, and raster images - into KMZ format for seamless use in Google Earth. You can also reverse the process, converting KMZ files back into DWG drawings for further editing and enhancement.
