FAQ
VFK to MIF 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 MIF files?
MIF is the file with the shapes in MapInfo's interchange format, which stores map data as a pair of text files. In the .mif file are the points, lines, and areas of a map layer, written as readable text with their coordinates, colors, and line styles, while the attributes of these objects, such as names and numbers, are kept in the partner .mid file. MapInfo is a desktop GIS program widely used in business, telecommunications, and local government, and the MIF and MID pair is its open way of passing data to and from other programs, since it can be read and edited in any text editor. A MIF file needs its MID file with the same name to be complete.
