About Converting GeoJSON to CSV

GeoJSON encodes geographic features as ordinary JSON, standardised as RFC 7946. Because any language that parses JSON can read it, it has become the default format for web maps and geospatial APIs. When you need to move away from GeoJSON, the usual reason is simple: text-based, so heavy for very large datasets.

Converting your GeoJSON map file to CSV solves that. CSV is a plain-text table format where each line is a row and commas separate columns. Its simplicity makes it the universal exchange format for data between spreadsheets, databases and code. In practice you gain readable by virtually every tool and tiny, plain-text files. PrivConvert runs the whole GeoJSON-to-CSV conversion in server memory and deletes your file the instant the CSV is ready — nothing is stored, logged or reused.

When this conversion helps

  • You need readable by virtually every tool
  • You need tiny, plain-text files
  • You need ideal for data import/export
  • Sharing a GeoJSON map file with someone whose software expects CSV

Tips for best results

  • After converting, open the CSV and skim the formatting — complex layouts occasionally need a small touch-up.
  • Files up to 250 MB are supported, and you can batch-convert several GeoJSON files at once; each is processed privately and deleted immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are features turned into rows?
Each GeoJSON feature becomes one CSV row. Points get dedicated longitude and latitude columns, and every other geometry keeps its full coordinate list in a coordinates column so nothing is lost.
Are feature properties included?
The feature name and description are pulled out into their own columns. The output is standard CSV that opens cleanly in Excel, Google Sheets or any data tool.
Is my data parsed safely?
Yes. The GeoJSON is read with a depth-limited JSON parser that blocks nesting bombs, entirely in memory - your file is never written to disk and is deleted immediately after conversion.
