Map Data Workflow

Bring files into a GIS

Need GG content inside a GIS project? reaConverter converts it to SHP offline and in batch, so a whole folder arrives in the format your GIS expects. Placing it on the map is then a job for the GIS.

  • Convert a whole folder to SHP in one pass
  • Apply the same settings to every file in the batch
  • 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.

Security was our top concern when evaluating file conversion tools. reaConverter’s offline mode and role-based access controls let us lock it down for sensitive environments. No unexpected network calls or bloat — just clean, fast conversions. Even passed our pen-testing scans without a hitch.

FAQ

GG to SHP Conversion

What are GG files?

A GG file represents an image associated with Koala Paint or Koala Painter — a drawing program included on the Koala Pad. This device represented a low-cost tablet released in the 1980s by Koala Technologies, designed as a drawing pad for children. Koala Painter was also released for the Commodore 64 computer, and was fairly popular among home users during the 1980s. GG files are currently considered obsolete.

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.
