Cloud converters upload your data to their servers. GeoUnpack does the conversion inside your browser instead, which matters when the data belongs to a client or a government agency.
How to use it
- Drop your Esri file into the box.
- Preview and pick layers.
- Click Convert & download. The data never leaves your machine.

FAQ
When should I use a cloud converter instead?
For very large files, raster data or formats GeoUnpack doesn't support yet. For sensitive data or quick Esri package conversions, local conversion is simpler and safer.
