About

MIF/MID

MapInfo MIF (MapInfo Interchange Format) is MapInfo's data exchange format. MIF files store geometric graphics data, and MID files store corresponding attribute data. Unlike TAB format, MIF/MID is a plain text format more suitable for cross-platform data exchange. Many GIS software use MIF/MID as a bridge for interacting with MapInfo data.

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.

Conversion trade-offs

MIF/MID: limitations to know

  • Large file sizes, slow loading speed
  • Style support not as complete as TAB format

GeoJSON: what you gain

  • Human-readable, easy to manually edit and debug
  • Supported by virtually all GIS software and mapping libraries
  • Naturally suited for web applications and API data transmission

Why convert MIF/MID to GeoJSON?

Converting MIF/MID to GeoJSON is one of the most common workflows in GIS. MIF/MID data usually comes from desktop GIS software, government open-data portals, or data exchange with partners, while GeoJSON is what modern tools, web maps, and platforms expect. This converter bridges the two: it reads your MIF/MID files, keeps geometry and attributes intact, and writes clean GeoJSON output — entirely in your browser, so your data never leaves your device.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly — your files never leave your device.

Is the MIF/MID to GeoJSON converter free?

Yes, completely free with no sign-up and no usage limits.

Are coordinate systems preserved when converting MIF/MID to GeoJSON?

By default the output keeps the source coordinate system. If your MIF/MID file uses a projected CRS (like UTM), you can search any EPSG coordinate system by keyword or code and reproject in one step. Note: output formats that require WGS84 by specification (KML, KMZ, GPX) always reproject to WGS84 automatically.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Yes — drop several MIF/MID files at once and each one produces its own GeoJSON output.

GeoJSON at a glance

Key Features

  • Based on standard JSON, natively supported by all programming languages
  • Supports multiple geometry types: Point, LineString, Polygon, MultiPolygon, etc.
  • Can carry attribute data and supports FeatureCollection for batch organizing features

Common Use Cases

  • Data exchange for web maps and online mapping services
  • Geospatial data storage and display in mobile applications
  • Sharing and transporting GIS data across platforms

How to Use

  1. 1

    Upload your MIF/MID file — drag and drop it onto the page, or browse from your device. You can add several files at once for batch conversion.

  2. 2

    The conversion runs automatically in your browser. No upload, no server — your data stays on your device the entire time.

  3. 3

    Download the GeoJSON file. Each input produces its own output, ready to use in your GIS, web map, or archive.
