Technical note

DT2 to GBR: what to expect from the conversion

Geospatial coordinates are absolute positions on the earth, and they are large: a projected easting runs to six or seven digits, while latitude and longitude are small decimals. GBR expects a drawing laid out near its own origin in millimetres or inches. The geometry itself converts correctly, but it can land tens of kilometres from 0,0, or arrive at a scale where an entire county is forty units across. Zoom to extents first, then measure one known distance before dimensioning anything. Lettering in the image is traced as shapes, not recognised as text. Every character arrives as an outline that can be scaled and edited like any other geometry, but not retyped, restyled or searched, and no font is attached to it. Titles and callouts on a scanned drawing usually have to be typed again in the GBR if they need to stay editable.

Map Data Workflow

Turn GIS data into something anyone can open

A map saved as GBR opens on any computer and any phone. reaConverter produces those from DT2 in batch, entirely offline.

  • Render every file in a folder to GBR with the same size and settings
  • Set DPI and output dimensions before the run, not afterwards
  • Pick up new data automatically with Watch Folders, or script the job from the command line

Everything runs on your PC, which matters for cadastral, utility and client data that should not pass through an upload form.

FAQ

DT2 to GBR Conversion

What are DT2 files?

DT2 is the file extension for Level 2 of Digital Terrain Elevation Data (DTED), the high-resolution tier of the elevation series standardized in MIL-PRF-89020 by the U.S. National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA). A file of this type covers a one-degree by one-degree cell with a post spacing of 1 arc-second, about 30 meters at the equator, which makes it suitable for detailed terrain work such as viewshed modeling, slope analysis, route planning, and flood simulation. It is the most detailed of the three standard levels, following the .dt0 and .dt1 products. The content is organized as header records with identification and accuracy information, followed by a regular grid of elevation values for the cell. Because of its fine sampling, Level 2 files are considerably larger than those of the lower levels.

What are GBR files?

GBR is part of the Gerber group of formats — a set of standardized extensions used in the printed circuit board (PCB) industry. Gerber files include 2-D representations of various PCB images, such as copper layers, solder mask etc. They can also describe the electrical connections on such boards, or drilling and milling info associated with them. Similar formats include GBS, CMP and SOL.
