Extensions: .shp, .dbf, .shx, .prj

Software: ArcGIS, QGIS, MapInfo, AutoCAD Map 3D, Global Mapper

Limitations: Field names limited to 10 characters. 2 GB file size limit. Single geometry type per file. No support for date-time fields.

About ODS

ODS (OpenDocument Spreadsheet) is an open standard spreadsheet format. Like XLSX, it can serve as a geographic data source when it contains coordinate columns.

Extensions: .ods

Software: LibreOffice Calc, Google Sheets, QGIS, GDAL/OGR, Python

Limitations: No built-in geometry type — requires coordinate columns. No CRS metadata. Limited to tabular point data.
