FAQ
VFK to IGS Conversion
What are VFK files?
VFK is the exchange format of the Czech real estate cadastre, the official register of land parcels, buildings, and ownership rights in the Czech Republic. A file of this type is a text file with the cadastral data of one cadastral area, published by the Czech Office for Surveying, Mapping and Cadastre. It lists the parcels and buildings together with their boundaries, the points that define them, the types of land use, and the legal relations such as rights of ownership and easements. Surveyors, municipalities, and software companies use it to receive cadastral data and to load them into their own systems. Since the introduction of the data protection rules in 2018, personal information about owners has been removed from the files that are issued.
What are IGS files?
The IGS (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) file format is a standardized CAD data exchange format used to transfer 2D and 3D model data between different CAD systems. Developed in the 1980s, IGES ensures compatibility across various engineering and design software by storing geometric data, annotations, and structure in a neutral ASCII or binary format.
