Format Details
GeoJSON
GeoJSON is an open standard for encoding geographic data structures as JSON. It represents points, lines, polygons, and feature collections with coordinates for maps and GIS tools. GeoJSON works well with web mapping libraries and converts cleanly to CSV or JSON tables for analysis.
dataTSV
TSV (Tab-Separated Values) is a plain-text tabular data format that uses tab characters as column delimiters and newlines to separate rows, making it similar to CSV but avoiding issues when data values contain commas. It is well-supported by spreadsheet applications, relational databases, and scripting languages, and is commonly used for data exports from bioinformatics databases, genome browsers, and text-processing pipelines.
dataConverting GEOJSON to TSV: what actually changes
GeoJSON to TSV is one of the conversions this site performs, but the two formats are not interchangeable containers. Here is what the file keeps, what it loses, and how to get a result you can use.
What .GEOJSON and .TSV each hold
.GEOJSON is a data format built for analysing, importing or exchanging records, storing rows, columns and value types. .TSV is a data format built for analysing, importing or exchanging records, storing rows, columns and value types. Converting between them is a decision about which of those two jobs the result needs to do.
What changes in the conversion
Both files belong to the data category, so this is a like-for-like repackage: the same kind of content, stored in a different container. What changes is how .TSV encodes rows, columns and value types — not what the file is about.
When this conversion is the right one
Reach for .TSV when the software, device or platform you are sending to expects it — the content is the same data, only the packaging differs. The reverse direction works the same way, so you can always convert back from .TSV to .GEOJSON using the same tool.
Tips for a clean GEOJSON to TSV conversion
Start from the original file
Convert the .GEOJSON you started with, not an earlier .TSV output. Every extra round trip costs quality and can accumulate formatting drift.
Check the real type, not the extension
Application/geo+json becomes text/tab-separated-values. If a file was renamed rather than converted, it will fail to open — rename it back to its true extension before uploading and the conversion will recognise it.
Confirm the structure first
Open the .GEOJSON briefly and check delimiters, headers and encoding. A misplaced separator or a stray quote is the usual reason the output looks wrong even though the conversion succeeded.
Limits worth knowing
Uploads are capped per file (30 MB, or 100 MB for video) and processed temporarily — nothing is kept as a permanent copy. For huge data files, split or compress the source first.
