Format Details
XLS
XLS is the legacy binary spreadsheet format used by Microsoft Excel from 1987 through the Office 2003 era, based on Microsoft's proprietary Binary Interchange File Format (BIFF). It stores worksheets, formulas, charts, and macros in a binary structure that requires Microsoft's format specification to parse correctly. XLS remains common in older enterprise systems and when compatibility with legacy versions of Excel is required.
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.
