How to convert GeoJSON to GeoPackage

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 GeoPackage. The file is processed locally, so your data is never uploaded to a server.

03

Download your GeoPackage file

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

GeoJSON vs GeoPackage: what changes when you convert

GeoJSON is built for web maps, APIs and JavaScript apps. GeoPackage is built for modern desktop GIS and multi-layer projects.

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.

GeoPackage

What is a GeoPackage file?

GeoPackage is an open OGC standard built on SQLite. One .gpkg file can hold many vector layers, raster tiles and attribute tables together.

It has none of the Shapefile's limits — long field names, large files, proper data types — and it is the default format in QGIS.

What to know before converting GeoJSON to GeoPackage

Your GeoJSON file

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

The GeoPackage output

Field names and data types are kept as they are — there is no 10-character limit.

Privacy

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