Format Details
Parquet
Apache Parquet is an open-source binary columnar storage format designed for efficient analytical data processing across the big data ecosystem. Its columnar layout enables excellent compression ratios and fast query execution when only a subset of columns is needed. Parquet is the de facto standard format for data lakes and is natively supported by Apache Spark, Hadoop, Presto, Snowflake, and most modern data processing platforms.
dataGeoJSON
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.
dataConverting PARQUET to GEOJSON: what actually changes
Parquet to GeoJSON 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 .PARQUET and .GEOJSON each hold
.PARQUET is a data format built for analysing, importing or exchanging records, storing rows, columns and value types. .GEOJSON 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 .GEOJSON encodes rows, columns and value types — not what the file is about.
When this conversion is the right one
Reach for .GEOJSON 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 .GEOJSON to .PARQUET using the same tool.
Tips for a clean PARQUET to GEOJSON conversion
Start from the original file
Convert the .PARQUET you started with, not an earlier .GEOJSON output. Every extra round trip costs quality and can accumulate formatting drift.
Check the real type, not the extension
Application/x-parquet becomes application/geo+json. 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 .PARQUET 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.
