FAQ
DOCM to SHP Conversion
What are DOCM files?
DOCM is a Microsoft Word document that can contain macros, which are small programs written in the VBA language that automate work in a document. Such a file looks like an ordinary DOCX document, and the macros add buttons, forms, calculations, and automatic formatting or filling. Word blocks the macros until the user allows them, because a macro from an unknown source can be harmful, so a DOCM file should be opened only if it comes from a trusted sender.
What are SHP files?
The SHP (Shapefile) format stores vector files compatible with various Geographical Information System (GIS) software. SHP was developed by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), an American provider of GIS software and geodatabase management solutions, with the aim of improving interoperability between GIS software produced by ESRI and other developers. An SHP file usually contains vectorial descriptions of geospatial data (e.g. rivers, lakes), including specific attributes.
