About CSV

Comma-Separated Values (CSV) files store tabular data with coordinate columns (latitude/longitude or WKT geometry). A simple, universal format supported by virtually all data tools.

Extensions: .csv

Software: Excel, Google Sheets, QGIS, Python/Pandas, R

Limitations: No built-in geometry type — requires coordinate columns. No CRS metadata. No support for complex geometries without WKT.

About GML

Geography Markup Language (GML) is an OGC XML-based format for expressing geographic features. It is often used for data exchange between government agencies and in INSPIRE-compliant systems.

Extensions: .gml

Software: QGIS, ArcGIS, GeoServer, Deegree, GDAL/OGR

Limitations: Verbose XML format — large file sizes. Complex schema definitions. Slower to read/write than binary formats.
