For GIS users working with shapefiles, get help diagnosing common problems such as missing projection files, broken geometries, or fields that will not import. Describe your software and error message to get a step-by-step check, plan a conversion to GeoJSON or another format, or assess whether attributes are ready for mapping. Leave with a troubleshooting checklist, conversion steps, or a GIS preparation plan.

What it writes
- Shapefile troubleshooting checklist
- Format conversion steps
- Pre-mapping data check plan
How to use it
Include your GIS software and version, the exact error text, the shapefile sidecar files present (such as .shx and .prj), and your intended output. That context makes the troubleshooting steps more specific.
What you bring
- GIS software and version
- Exact error message or symptom
- Known coordinate system and target format
- Describe the issue or intended GIS task
A good fit for
- A shapefile opens without the expected coordinate reference system
- QGIS reports invalid geometry before a spatial analysis
- You need to convert shapefile attributes for a web map
Ways to start
A few requests this Agent can handle.
In QGIS, my shapefile lands near the wrong country, and it has no .prj file. What should I check before assigning a coordinate system?
ArcGIS Pro says my polygon shapefile has invalid geometry. Give me a safe sequence of checks before I run an overlay.
I need to move a parcel shapefile into GeoJSON for a web map. It has 120,000 features and several long field names; what should I watch for?
Good to know
This workspace provides text assistance.
- Editing, repairing, or converting files directly
- Choosing a legal property boundary or survey result
- Cannot inspect shapefiles or verify their geometry
- Conversion steps depend on your GIS software and version
