Technical note

MBTILES to GBR: what carries over and what does not

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. An MBTILES file has a pixel count and a DPI value, and no real-world size at all. GBR is a drawing where one unit means one millimetre or one inch, so the conversion has to assign a scale. Set the DPI before the run rather than resizing afterwards, then measure one feature of known length in the output and scale the drawing once to match it. Everything downstream, from dimensioning to cutting, rests on that single check.

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 MBTILES 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

MBTILES to GBR Conversion

What are MBTILES files?

MBTILES is a single file that holds a ready-made map cut into small square tiles at many zoom levels. A web or mobile map does not draw the whole world at once but loads only the tiles that are visible, and an MBTiles file keeps all of them together, so a whole map can be copied to a phone, a tablet, or a server and used without an internet connection. The tiles can be pictures, such as PNG, JPEG, or WebP images, or compact vector tiles, which stay sharp at every scale. The format was created by Mapbox and has become a common way of storing and distributing map tiles, including the OpenStreetMap-based map data that is sold or published as ready-made packages.

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.

Can reaConverter convert MBTILES to GBR?
