TopoJSON is an extension of GeoJSON that encodes topology: shared boundaries between features are stored once as 'arcs' instead of being duplicated. The result is dramatically smaller files — often 80% smaller than the equivalent GeoJSON — which makes it popular for web visualizations (notably D3.js) where download size matters. It converts losslessly back to GeoJSON for editing.
Need the other direction instead? GPX is the GPS Exchange Format for tracks, routes and waypoints. GPX (GPS Exchange Format) is the open XML standard for GPS data, supported by virtually every handheld GPS unit, fitness watch and outdoor app (Garmin, Strava, Komoot, AllTrails). It stores waypoints, routes and recorded tracks with timestamps and elevation. If your data comes off a GPS device or needs to load onto one, GPX is the format you want.

TopoJSON to GPX — FAQ
- How do I convert TopoJSON to GPX?
- Upload your .topojson file using the converter above (drag & drop or click to browse). GeoMaps converts it to GPX instantly in your browser and gives you a .gpx file to download. No software to install and no signup required.
- Is the TopoJSON to GPX 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 GPX back to TopoJSON?
- Yes. Use our GPX to TopoJSON converter for the reverse conversion — every format on GeoMaps converts both ways.
- 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.
