Convert ESRI File Geodatabase (.gdb) online — free
A File Geodatabase is how ArcGIS stores data: a folder ending in .gdb that holds one or more feature classes (layers) as binary tables. It is what ESRI users hand over, and without ArcGIS it can be awkward to open.
Upload a zipped .gdb folder below to get a shapefile, GeoJSON, GeoPackage or KML, with no ArcGIS licence needed. Or turn your own data into a geodatabase for a colleague who works in ArcGIS Pro.
Files are deleted automatically after 48 hours. Your files are never shared.

GDB: frequently asked questions
Is the GDB converter free?
Partly. Every new account gets three welcome conversions for free; after that, buy a credit pack to pay per conversion, or take a subscription for unlimited conversions within its file-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.
