GeoJSON/Shapefile to DXF Converter

Upload GeoJSON, Shapefile, CSV or KML and export to AutoCAD DXF — points, lines and polygons all convert, ready to open in AutoCAD, Civil 3D or any CAD software.

TL;DR: Free GIS-to-DXF converter for CAD workflows. Upload any supported GIS format in GISGP's GeoJSON Viewer, pick "AutoCAD DXF" as the export format, and download — no AutoCAD or CAD software needed for the conversion itself.

Open the DXF converter

DXF export is built into GISGP's GeoJSON Viewer — upload your file there and pick "AutoCAD DXF" from the export format list.

How the conversion works
1

Upload your GIS file

GeoJSON, Shapefile (.zip), CSV, KML/KMZ or Excel are all accepted — or paste a live ArcGIS Online FeatureServer URL to load data directly.

2

Preview on the map

Your data renders on an interactive map first, so you can confirm it's the right layer and filter features before exporting.

3

Export as AutoCAD DXF

Points become DXF POINT entities, lines and polygon rings become LWPOLYLINE entities. Open the result directly in AutoCAD, Civil 3D, BricsCAD or QGIS.

Common questions
What GIS formats can I convert to DXF?+

GeoJSON, Shapefile (.zip), CSV (with lat/lon columns), KML/KMZ, and Excel files with coordinate data. You can also paste a live ArcGIS Online FeatureServer URL to load and export a hosted layer directly.

Does the DXF export preserve attribute data?+

The DXF export focuses on geometry (points as POINT entities, lines/polygons as LWPOLYLINE entities) for direct use in CAD software. If you need the attribute table too, export to CSV or Shapefile instead, or keep the source file alongside your DXF.

Do I need AutoCAD installed to do the conversion?+

No — the conversion happens entirely in your browser. You only need AutoCAD (or another CAD program) to open the resulting .dxf file afterward.

Can I export an ArcGIS Online layer directly to DXF?+

Yes — paste the FeatureServer URL into GISGP's GeoJSON Viewer, no login required for public layers, then export to DXF.

Working with ArcGIS Online?

GISGP imports and exports ArcGIS Online Feature Service data — Excel, CSV, Shapefile, KML, GeoJSON — no ArcGIS Pro needed.
