Frequently Asked Questions
What is GeoParquet?
GeoParquet is an open geospatial vector data format built on Apache Parquet. It adds standardized metadata for geometry columns (points, lines, polygons) encoded in WKB (Well-Known Binary) format.
Can TableView open both .geoparquet and standard .parquet files?
Yes, TableView seamlessly parses both standard Apache Parquet files and GeoParquet files with spatial metadata.
Can I export GeoParquet records to Excel or CSV?
Yes, all tabular attributes and geometry representations can be exported to Excel, CSV, or JSON.
