How to convert GeoJSON to DXF

  1. 1

    Add your GeoJSON file

    Drag and drop your .geojson file onto the box above, or click to browse — you can also paste the raw text directly.

  2. 2

    Convert in your browser

    GeoMaps reads the GeoJSON and rewrites it as DXF locally, on your device. The conversion is instant and your file is never sent anywhere.

  3. 3

    Download your DXF

    Click download to save the converted .dxf file, or copy the output text. That's it — no account, no watermark, no limits.

Tip: A feature's layer property, if it has one, becomes its CAD layer; otherwise points, lines and polygons go on separate layers. Pick the output coordinate system to match your CAD project (UTM meters by default).

GeoJSON is an open standard (RFC 7946) for representing geographic features — points, lines and polygons — together with their attributes as plain JSON. It's the lingua franca of modern web mapping: readable by virtually every GIS tool, library (Leaflet, Mapbox GL, OpenLayers, deck.gl) and programming language out of the box. Its simplicity and human-readability make it the natural hub format to convert to and from.

Need the other direction instead? DXF is autoCAD's Drawing Exchange Format for CAD drawings. DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is the open, text-based CAD format Autodesk created so drawings can move between AutoCAD and other programs such as BricsCAD, LibreCAD, MicroStation and QGIS. Surveyors, civil engineers, architects and utilities use it for site plans, parcel boundaries, and road and pipe layouts. A DXF stores lines, polylines, arcs, circles, points and text on named layers, in the drawing's own units and coordinate system. That's often a projected grid such as UTM or State Plane rather than latitude and longitude.

The DXF is written as R12, the version every CAD program opens. Points, lines and polygons go on separate layers (or keep their source layer), and point names are added as text on a LABELS layer. Coordinates are in meters in the UTM zone that covers your data unless you pick latitude/longitude, Web Mercator or another EPSG code.

GeoJSON to DXF — FAQ

How do I convert GeoJSON to DXF?
Upload your .geojson file using the converter above (drag & drop or click to browse). GeoMaps converts it to DXF instantly in your browser and gives you a .dxf file to download. No software to install and no signup required.
Is the GeoJSON to DXF converter free?
Yes — it's completely free with no usage limits, watermarks or account needed. We offer it as a free tool from GeoMaps, the platform for turning your data into interactive maps.
Is my data private? Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely in your web browser using JavaScript — your file is never uploaded to any server. Because nothing leaves your device, it's safe for sensitive or confidential data and works even offline once the page has loaded.
Can I convert DXF back to GeoJSON?
Yes. Use our DXF to GeoJSON converter for the reverse conversion — every format on GeoMaps converts both ways.
Anything to know about DXF output?
The DXF is written as R12, the version every CAD program opens. Points, lines and polygons go on separate layers (or keep their source layer), and point names are added as text on a LABELS layer. Coordinates are in meters in the UTM zone that covers your data unless you pick latitude/longitude, Web Mercator or another EPSG code.
How large a file can I convert?
Because conversion happens in your browser, the limit is your device's memory rather than a server quota — files up to tens of megabytes convert comfortably on a typical laptop. Very large datasets may be slower depending on your machine.
