FAQ
VSTM to SHP Conversion
What are VSTM files?
VSTM is the macro-enabled Microsoft Visio template format, introduced in Visio 2013. A file of this type works like a VSTX template, with page setup, themes, layers, and a set of masters for creating new diagrams, and it also carries a Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) project. New drawings created from it inherit the code, so it suits organizations that distribute standardized diagrams with built-in commands, such as automatic shape numbering, data import, or report generation. As with other macro-enabled Office files, a security warning appears when it is opened.
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. An SHP file usually contains vectorial descriptions of geospatial data (e.g. rivers, lakes), including specific attributes.
