Supported extensions are supported in last version?

Hi Alexander,
Regarding : these extension of shapefile: .atx, .cpg that are not mandatories files.
atx- is an attribute index file.
cpg- is a code page file for a Shapefile.
I convert to itself with succes.

This the source file, I got from A
Shapefile.zip (11.2 KB)

Regarding :
Today I have short session with ArcGis programmer and he show me the abilities:

In order to convert the following extensions - need first to install ArcGis software on running the machine and than you can use their API.

Flow:
.MPKX-
Map Package
An ArcGIS Pro map package is a compressed file that contains a map and its associated data. It is designed to facilitate the sharing of maps and data between users or to archive work. A map package can include layers, their symbolization, labeling, table properties, and data
It possible to extract map package with Arc GIS API + pass on the extracted content folders ,on each folder can be many layers=> and convert each layer with your GIS API.

.LPKX -
Layer Package
A layer package (.lpkx file) in ArcGIS is a file that contains both the layer properties and the dataset referenced by the layer. It allows you to save and share everything about a layer, including its symbology, labeling, field properties, and associated data. Layer packages can include multiple layers and can be directly added to maps by other users without requiring access to the original database or manual configuration of layer properties.

It possible to extract layer package with Arc GIS API => and convert each layer with your GIS API.

LYRX => is for visualation.
Layer File
lyrx file is a type of layer file used in ArcGIS Pro to save and share the properties of a layer, such as its symbology, labeling, and other settings. It is an updated format compared to the older .lyr file used in ArcGIS Desktop.

ifc =>
A .ifc file is an Industry Foundation Classes file, used in BIM (Building Information Modeling).

 Stores 3D building and construction data: geometry, materials, components, and metadata

 An open standard maintained by buildingSMART International

 Designed for interoperability between BIM software like:

  • Autodesk Revit
  • ArchiCAD
  • Tekla Structures
    *Vectorworks

Flow:It possible to extract ifc to .gdb and from there to any formats.
You do not support .gdb.
Here is sample of usage.

Hi, @danies8
Yes, we know these files are ArcGis software

Do you think it possible to implements the I said?
Did you try it?

Hi, @danies8

Yes, it’s possible

No, we have on you own API

Flow:It possible to extract ifc to .gdb and from there to any formats.
You do not support .gdb.
Here is sample of usage
Can you please support it ?

Without .gdb support from you I can’t support ArcGis files.

This the summary mail with ArgGis software:
Hi Yigal.

Thanks you very much for the meeting.

1.Regarding:

.ATX + .CPG (1+2), you gave me a sample of shapefile containing these files , that are not mandatories, and it supported in our system.

.MPKX / .LPKX /.LYRX (3+4+5).

.IFC (6)

.Horizon (7)

.DWJ (7)

2.We need to buy ArcGIS Pro, costs 1100 & every year, includes support how to use ArcGIS Pro application.

The license comes with API in C# .Net 8, moving to .Net 10 in May.

If we need help to use their API , we need to pay extra support per hour.

  1. Can you please pass on our the solution we passed together and see if it ok (Solution to support it Sasa’s GIS converter tool)?

4.What about .horizon, we forgot to talk about it.

5.What about .dwj, we forgot to talk about it.

The list of extensions:

1. .ATX

An .atx file is an attribute index file used by Esri File Geodatabases (.shapefile).

Stores attribute index structures for a field in:

  • Feature classes
  • Tables

It is not gis format, it’s additional files for format.

2. .CPG

A .cpg file is a code page file for a Shapefile.

It is not a mandatory file.

 Stores the character encoding for text fields in the .dbf attribute table

 Ensures non-ASCII characters (like accented letters, symbols, or non-Latin scripts) display correctly in GIS software

 Typically contains a single line specifying the encoding, e.g., UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1.

No need any conversion , part of .MPKX and .LPKX.

6. .IFC

.ifc file is an Industry Foundation Classes file, used in BIM (Building Information Modeling).

· Stores 3D building and construction data: geometry, materials, components, and metadata

· An open standard maintained by building SMART International

· Designed for interoperability between BIM software like:

  • Autodesk Revit
  • ArchiCAD
  • Tekla Structures
  • Vectorworks

Solution to support it Sasa’s GIS converter tool.

It possible to extract .ifc to .gdb and from there to any formats.

7. .Horizon

Typically used in geological software to represent horizon surfaces.

8. .DWJ

A .dwg file is a drawing file format used by AutoCAD and other CAD software.

Stores vector graphics, 2D/3D geometry, annotations, and metadata

Widely used in engineering, architecture, and construction

Binary format developed by Autodesk

we are support .gdb format

You do not support .gdb format when the input is folder mean dataset.

We are support gdb format when the input is folder.
We can read it and write and create new one.

We do not support dataset conversion

Hi Alexander,
This file, unzip it and you do not support it, bacause is dataset ? how do I know if it dataset?
gdb1.gdb.zip (2.4 MB)

  1. You said :“We are support gdb format when the input is folder
    Can you give sample + description how you do it?
    is this folder contain only .gdbtable and .gdbtablx?
    We can read it and write and create new one.

Hi, @danies8
It’s easy. Dataset represent as a folder with .gdb extension.
It’s not correct convert dataset to vector layer.

Ok.

You saud:
We are support gdb format when the input is folder.
We can read it and write and create new one

This is the case:
So, you suppord gdb format as folder when in the folder there are two files mandatories files
.gdtable and .gdtablx.

This what you mean?

Your quick answer will be appreciated.

Your quick answer to last post will be appreciated.

@danies8
One more time :
gdb format can be dataset or layer.
Dataset represent as folder, layer as two files .gdtable and .gdtablx.
If you put layer inside folder it not become dataset!

No, it will not work

So folder with two files .gdtable and .gdtablx. supported in gdb format in GIS lib.
.gdb extension represent dataset not supported yet.
Is it?

you set path to file, not folder

Do you again wanna convert dataset to layer ? it’s incorrect operation

Ok.
The issue is fully understood.
The ArcGIS extensions creates folder that each folder contains layer mainly shapefile and gdb.
And you fully suported it.
