Formats

 

DSpatial can work natively with different formats in the public domain and proprietary formats native to other GIS systems. This page lists the formats that are supported by DSpatial. Currently only raster formats are supported. A page with detailed information on use, capabilities, developer information, data sources, and other information is available for each format.

Note that for most practical purposes you should convert your data to the DSpatial format if you want to execute any of the analysis functions, because most other formats do not support all the features of DSpatial.
