Specifically, Shapefiles, GeoPackage and GeoJSON as they are popular formats in data portals.

Shapefile has an embedded DBase (yikes!) db and is a proprietary format from Esri. Use https://github.com/tmontaigu/shapefile-rs

GeoPackage is a true open format with a more modern embedded SQLite database. Use https://github.com/cjriley9/gpkg-rs

For GeoJSON, we'll leverage the existing json command, but with awareness of the GeoJSON spec.
