Geospatial Files Example

Example

You can download a selection of Geospatial files which you can ingest into any project.

The are saved into a zip file. You can ingest the zip file and Sintelix will unpack the zip file to ingest the example Geospatial files.

The examples demonstrate different:

  • file formats (KMZ, GeoJson, SHP, and Geotif)

  • types of Geospatial information (points, routes and shapes).

Using this example

You can:

  • Download the Sample file which contains sample geospatial files.

  • Add the Sample File into a Collection.

    You can add the zip file directly into Sintelix, you do not need to extract the files first. Sintelix will extract the files from the zip file for you.

  • View the ingested Documents.

For more information about investing and viewing Geospatial Files, see Add (Ingest) Documents, Viewing Maps and Geospatial Files.

When viewing maps, the default map has limited zoom. Change maps to be able to zoom in closer into maps.

Version: Sintelix 8

This example is designed to work in Sintelix 8.
