Technical note

What changes when you convert ZARR to SHP

ZARR is a grid of cells and SHP stores discrete features with their own attributes, so this is not a change of container: the pixels have to be traced into polygons or lines. How well that works depends entirely on the source. A classified land-cover raster vectorises cleanly, while a photographic aerial image produces a polygon for almost every cell and a file nobody can use. Both ZARR and SHP are georeferenced, and the coordinate reference system is the part that usually breaks. Confirm the projection of the output rather than assuming it survived, because data that lands in the wrong part of the world still opens without an error.

Map Data Workflow

Move GIS data between formats

Data deliveries rarely arrive in the format a project runs on. reaConverter takes ZARR to SHP on your own PC, file after file, with nothing uploaded.

  • Convert an entire delivery folder to SHP in one run
  • Produce several formats from the same source for different teams
  • Leave the originals untouched and write the results to a folder of your choice
  • 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

ZARR to SHP Conversion

What are ZARR files?

ZARR is an open format for storing very large multidimensional arrays of numbers, such as satellite image series, climate model output, weather forecasts, and microscope scans. A Zarr data set is cut into small chunks, and each chunk is compressed and saved on its own, so a program can read just the part it needs without loading the whole data set, and many computers can work on different parts at the same time. The format was designed for cloud storage, where data are kept as separate objects, and it is now widely used for analysis-ready geospatial data in the cloud. It is maintained by a community of developers, and an OGC community standard describes its second version.

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.
