shp2geojson.js

Convert shapefile to geoJSON via a web browser without Server-Side code. This conversion will unzip your file and reproject the data with correct encoding in JavaScript.

Inspired by this project by wavded http://github.com/wavded/js-shapefile-to-geojson

Usage

Include all of the necessary files for the webpage to preview shp.

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/proj4js/2.3.3/proj4.js"></script>
<script src="lib/jszip.js"></script>
<script src="lib/jszip-utils.js"></script>
<!--[if IE]>
<script type="text/javascript" src="lib/jszip-utils-ie.js"></script>
<![endif]-->

<script src="preprocess.js"></script>
<script src="preview.js"></script>

Load the ZIP archive that must contain the .shp and .dbf files and replace the .prj file of shapefile with EPSG code.

Two options available if you need to set the EPSG or encoding for best fit to your data. You can skip EPSG code field if your ZIP archive contain the .prj file.

loadshp({
    url: '/shp/test.zip', // path or your upload file
    encoding: 'big5' // default utf-8
    EPSG: 3826 // default 4326
}, function(geojson) {
    // geojson returned
});

Use with Leaflet.js

var map = L.map('map').setView([ 0, 0 ], 10),
vector = L.geoJson().addTo(map);

L.tileLayer('http://{s}.tile.osm.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png' , { maxZoom: 18}).addTo(map);

loadshp({
    url: '/shp/test.zip',
    encoding: 'big5',
    EPSG: 3826
}, function(data) {
    vector.addData(data);
    map.fitBounds(vector.getBounds()); 
});

Use with Google Maps API v3

var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
    zoom: 10,
    center: {lat: 0, lng: 0}
});

loadshp({
    url: '/shp/test.zip',
    encoding: 'big5',
    EPSG: 3826
}, function(data) {
    var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds(),
    bbox = data.bbox;
    
    map.data.addGeoJson(data);
    bounds.extend(new google.maps.LatLng (bbox[1], bbox[0]));
    bounds.extend(new google.maps.LatLng (bbox[3], bbox[2]))
    map.fitBounds(bounds);
});
