GeoPackage: Unterschied zwischen den Versionen

Aktuelle Version vom 2. Dezember 2016, 00:56 Uhr

GeoPackage is a universal file format for vector and raster geodata. It’s open, standards-based, application and platform independent, and self-describing. And since its built on top of SQLite, all you need to know is SQL to use GeoPackages on any desktop or mobile OS on the market. GeoPackage is the modern alternative to formats like GeoTIFF and especially Shapefile.

Don't confuse with package as a high-level bundling of files or software or as part of programming structures. "Geodata Package File Formats" typically include symbology and styling:

• ArcGIS Layer Package and ArcGIS Map Package
• QGIS All-in-one Project Plugin
• Spatialite and MBTiles
