FAQ
GPKG to CGM Conversion
What are GPKG files?
GPKG is the file of a GeoPackage, an open standard of the Open Geospatial Consortium for storing geographic data in a single file. Inside one .gpkg file there can be several layers of points, lines, and polygons with their attribute tables, sets of map tiles for backgrounds, and ordinary tables of data, all together with the coordinate systems and descriptions that go with them. The file is portable and can be copied or sent as it is, it works on any operating system and on phones and tablets, and it has none of the restrictions of the older Shapefile, which needs a group of files and has short field names. GeoPackage is supported by practically all current GIS programs and is often used as the main format for sharing and storing geodata.
What are CGM files?
CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) is a format that contains vector graphics information (clip art, drawings) associated with graphics design or CAD programs. As opposed to other types of metafiles, such as EMF or WMF, CGM files are not only supported by Windows, but can be used on different platforms too. They are encoded using binary, character-based of clear-text encoding.
