How to convert GeoJSON to DXF

Three steps, no software to install. Works on Windows, macOS, Linux and mobile.

01

Upload your GeoJSON file

Drop a .geojson or .json file into the converter, or click to browse. Files up to 100 MB are supported.

02

Convert in your browser

Click Convert to DXF. The file is processed locally, so your data is never uploaded to a server.

03

Download your DXF file

The DXF file downloads straight to your device. Need another format? Pick a converter below.

Beyond conversion

A file is a start. A map tells the story.

Converted your GeoJSON file? Upload it to GISCARTA and turn it into an interactive map your team or clients can actually use.

Every layer, styled your way

Colour by attribute, cluster thousands of points, switch on 3D.

Dashboards with live charts

Charts and key numbers next to the map, updated as you filter.

Timeslider for change over time

Animate dated features and compare how places change.

Share with a link or embed

Publish a read-only map, embed it on your site, or keep it private with role-based access.

GeoJSON vs DXF: what changes when you convert

GeoJSON is built for web maps, APIs and JavaScript apps. DXF is built for exchange with AutoCAD and engineering tools.

GeoJSON

What is a GeoJSON file?

GeoJSON is an open standard (RFC 7946) for describing geographic features in JSON. Each feature pairs a geometry — point, line or polygon — with a set of properties.

It is the native format of web mapping libraries like Leaflet, Mapbox GL and OpenLayers, and of most geospatial APIs. The trade-off: plain text gets heavy for large datasets.

DXF

What is a DXF file?

DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is Autodesk's open format for sharing CAD drawings, introduced with AutoCAD in 1982. It stores lines, polylines, arcs, text and blocks organised in layers.

DXF is the bridge between GIS and engineering teams. It carries geometry well, but attribute tables and coordinate system information are usually lost or limited.

What to know before converting GeoJSON to DXF

Your GeoJSON file

GeoJSON coordinates are expected in WGS84 longitude/latitude, as the standard requires.

The DXF output

DXF keeps geometry and layers but drops most attribute data — keep the original file if you need the attribute table.

Privacy

Your file never leaves your device: conversion runs in your browser, for files up to 100 MB.
