Dump Shape FIles into GeoJson #28

Closed gocluster closed 6 years ago

gocluster commented 6 years ago

Is there a way to use this package and convert the shp files into JSON? Thanks

fawick commented 6 years ago

No, there is not. That is not within the scope of this package.

I'd recommend using ogr2ogr for converting shape files to GeoJSON or a variety of other vector formats for geo-information.

However, if you insist on having something in Go, you can always use go-shp together with one of the many GeoJSON packages and perform the conversion yourself: https://github.com/paulmach/go.geojson https://github.com/kpawlik/geojson https://github.com/twpayne/go-geom
