About

GeoJSON

GeoJSON is a geospatial data interchange format based on JSON. It can represent Point, LineString, Polygon, MultiPoint, MultiLineString, MultiPolygon, and GeometryCollection geometries. Defined by RFC 7946, GeoJSON has become one of the most popular data exchange formats in web GIS. GeoJSON files use WGS84 coordinates and support Feature objects with associated properties and FeatureCollections for organizing multiple features.

GeoPackage

GeoPackage is an open standard defined by OGC, implemented on SQLite database technology. It is a single container file that can simultaneously store vector features, raster imagery, attribute tables, and map tiles. GeoPackage requires no database server and can be used directly on mobile devices and desktop applications, making it an ideal choice for modern GIS data exchange.

Conversion trade-offs

GeoJSON: limitations to know

  • Text format results in larger file sizes, not suitable for massive datasets
  • Does not support topology or spatial indexing

GeoPackage: what you gain

  • Self-contained single file, easy to manage and transfer
  • Spatial indexing support, excellent query performance for large datasets
  • Cross-platform compatible, can be used directly on mobile devices

Why convert GeoJSON to GeoPackage?

GeoJSON is verbose — a large dataset becomes a giant text file that is slow to load and awkward to query. GeoPackage packs the same data into a single compressed SQLite database with spatial indexing: often a fraction of the size, dramatically faster to open in QGIS and ArcGIS, and the recommended field-collection format for mobile GIS apps. Converting GeoJSON to GeoPackage is the standard way to productionize web data for desktop GIS.

Frequently asked questions

How much smaller is GeoPackage than GeoJSON?

Typically 50–80% smaller for the same data, thanks to binary geometry storage and SQLite compression-friendly structure.

Can the result hold several datasets?

Each conversion writes one layer; you can load the resulting .gpkg in QGIS and merge more layers into the same file afterwards.

Does it include a spatial index?

Yes, an RTree spatial index is built so desktop GIS renders large datasets without slowdown.
