What is a shapefile?
A shapefile is a geospatial vector data format used by GIS software that was created by ESRI. Points, lines, or polygons can all be contained within a shapefile along with attributes describing the data.
Three required file types make up a shapefile:
.shp
.shx
.dbf
Optional files
.prj
When imported into GIS software such as Surety
®
Pro, shapefiles are automatically placed geospatially on the map.
Polygon boundaries and form data can also be exported from Surety and/or Surety Pro as a shape file.
Surety
®
Pro also contains the ability to import other geospatial vector data file types including:
Google's geospatial vector file - .KML (Keyhole Markup Language)
(To import a .kmz file first change the file's extension from .kmz to .zip and extract the kml out of the compressed folder)
Database file - .GDB
Geography Markup Language - .GML
AutoCAD vector file .DXF
Geographical JSON file -.GeoJson
