SHP ESRI Shapefile

A file format specifically designed by Esri company to store georeferenced shapes. It is widely used in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for its ability to represent a variety of geometries and their associated data attributes.

SHP Format Capabilities

  • SHP Geometries:

    The shapes that define the spatial features, such as points, lines, and polygons. Each geometry has a unique identifier and a spatial reference system that specifies its location on the earth’s surface.

  • SHP Attributes:

    The data that describe the properties of the geometries, such as name, type, area, population, etc. Each attribute has a name and a data type, such as string, integer, float, etc.

  • SHP Files:

    The physical files that store the geometries and attributes in a binary format. A SHP shapefile is actually a collection of at least three files: a .shp file that contains the geometries, a .dbf file that contains the attributes, and a .shx file that indexes the geometries.

SHP File Conversion

SHP shapefiles serve as a widely adopted standard across GIS applications, providing a straightforward and effective method for storing and processing geospatial data. Among these applications is our Automapki Application, an add-on compatible with AutoCAD, Bricscad, and ZWCAD. This powerful tool enables you to import SHP shapefiles directly into DWG model space and export DWG drawing elements to SHP format. This functionality facilitates seamless integration of geospatial information with CAD designs and simplifies data sharing with other GIS platforms.
