Create, read, convert, process GIS data and render maps with an API designed specifically for .NET developers. Aspose.GIS for .NET enables you to access & manipulate geographic information from vector-based geospatial data formats. API supports to read, write & convert most popular GIS file formats such as Shapefile, GeoJSON, FIleGDB, KML & OSM XML as well as render a map from supported formats to SVG. Furthermore, a developer can easily customize rendering and feature styles to get the desired map look.

Aspose.GIS for .NET is designed with simplicity, performance, usability & portability in mind. It contains APIs to be used with .NET Framework, .NET Core & Xamarin platforms, enabling you to build cross-platform applications with great ease.

Advanced GIS Data Manipulation API Features

Create new layers and datasets or read features from existing files Create points, lines and surfaces Build non-linear geometries Translate geometries to/from WKT and WKB Compute topological relation between geometries Compute an intersection, union or difference of any geometries Compute a buffer region around a geometry Render maps to SVG, PNG, JPEG, or BMP Combine several symbolizers to perform complex drawing Calculate styling parameters of a feature basing on values of its attributes Reproject individual geometries and entire layers Import spatial reference systems from WKT, export spatial reference systems to WKT Look up spatial reference systems by SRID Convert data to any supported format Perform reprojection while converting data

Single API for Various Formats
Aspose.GIS takes care of all tedious details of data formats and provides you with a clean and simple object model for GIS data. You can read or store data in files with a universal, format-independent code.

Convert GIS Data Between Formats
Converting GIS data from one format to another with Aspose.GIS usually takes just one line of code.

If necessary, you can perform additional operations during conversion such as adjustment of data attributes schema or on-the-fly reprojection of feature geometries.

Some examples of supported format conversions:

Shapefile to KML
Shapefile to File Geodatabase
GeoJSON to Shapefile
KML to File Geodatabase
KML to Shapefile
KML to GeoJSON
GPX to File Geodatabase
GPX to GeoJSON
GPX to KML
GPX to TopoJSON
MapInfo Interchange to GeoJSON
MapInfo Interchange to Shapefile
MapInfo TAB to KML
OSM to Shapefile
GML to File Geodatabase

Render Maps
Data is only useful when someone can see it. Aspose.GIS makes it easy and fast to export GIS data to vector or raster images, and provides rich symbology for complex visualization scenarios.

Use Different Coordinate Systems
With Aspose.GIS, you can transform geospatial coordinates, geometries, and whole layers from one coordinate reference system to another. Cartographic projections as well as geodetic transformations are supported.

You can either look up a coordinate reference system by SRID, import from WKT, or set custom parameters directly in the code.

Perform Spatial Analysis
Aspose.GIS includes a full set of spatial predicates based on the DE-9IM model that evaluate topological relationships between objects. Typical cases are:

Determine if two objects overlap
Determine if one object intersects another object
Find minimum distance between a geometry and another geometry
Check if a geometry of an object itersects itself
Compute the area of a geometry
Aspose.GIS enables you to easily perform geometric operations, such as:

Create a buffer polygon around a geometry
Find the centroid of a geometry
Find the convex hull of a geometry
Compute bounding extent
Linearize a curve
