CSV

Convert to CSV online — free

Sometimes the most useful map format is a spreadsheet. Converting geodata to CSV gives you every feature as a row you can filter, pivot and join in Excel, Google Sheets or pandas — point layers arrive with ready-made lat and lng columns, and more complex geometry is preserved as Well-Known Text.

Pick any source format below — shapefile, GeoJSON, KML or GeoPackage — and download the attribute table as CSV. Converting in the other direction (CSV into map formats) is temporarily offline while upload support for coordinate CSVs is rebuilt.

Files are deleted automatically after 48 hours. Your files are never shared.

CSV: frequently asked questions

How do I get coordinates from a GIS file into Excel?

Convert the file to CSV here: point data arrives with lat and lng columns alongside all attributes, and the file opens directly in Excel or Google Sheets. No GIS software needed.

What happens to lines and polygons in a CSV?

CSV has no native geometry, so non-point shapes are written to a geometry_wkt column as Well-Known Text (e.g. “POLYGON((…))”). Spreadsheets treat it as text; GIS tools and libraries like Shapely or PostGIS can parse it back into real geometry.

Is the CSV converter free?

Yes — new accounts get free conversion credits, and paid plans convert unlimited files within their size limit. Nothing to install; everything runs in the cloud.

What is the maximum file size?

Up to 5 GB per file on the largest plan (smaller plans have lower limits). Files are deleted automatically after 48 hours.
