FAQ
GDB to GBR Conversion
What are GDB files?
GDB here is the Esri file geodatabase, the standard native storage of ArcGIS for geographic data. It is not a single file but a folder whose name ends in .gdb, and inside it the program keeps many data sets together: feature classes with points, lines, and polygons, tables of attributes, rasters, and the rules and relations that connect them, such as topology, networks, and subtypes. Esri introduced it in 2006 as a faster successor of the personal geodatabase and a more capable replacement of the Shapefile, and it is now the usual way to store and share GIS projects from ArcGIS. A single table may grow to a terabyte, and the geodatabase itself has no size limit. Because the data are kept as a folder, it is usually sent in a ZIP archive.
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.
