Altemiq.IO.Shapefile

A library for reading and writing ESRI Shapefile format (.shp, .shx, .dbf) with support for projection definitions.

Features

  • Shapefile reading: Support for all ESRI Shapefile geometry types
  • Shapefile writing: Create new Shapefiles with geometry and attributes
  • Projection support: Embedded ESRI projection database (pe_list_geogcs.json, pe_list_projcs.json)
  • DBF integration: Reads associated .dbf files for attributes
  • QIX spatial indexing: Support for spatial index files

Usage

using Altemiq.IO.Shapefile;

// Read a Shapefile
using var reader = new ShapefileReader("data.shp");
while (reader.Read())
{
    var geometry = reader.GetGeometry();
    var attributes = reader.GetAttributes();
}

// Write a Shapefile
using var writer = new ShapefileWriter("output.shp", ShapeType.Point);
writer.Write(new ShapefileRecord(geometry, attributes));

Shapefile Format

The Shapefile format consists of multiple files:

  • .shp - Main file storing geometry
  • .shx - Index file for fast record access
  • .dbf - dBASE file for attributes
  • .prj - Projection definition (optional)
  • .qix - Spatial index (optional)

Target Frameworks

  • .NET Standard 2.1
  • .NET Standard 2.0
  • .NET Framework 4.61
