Excel to GeoJSON Converter
Microsoft Excel workbook (XLSX) (Excel) is the format used by Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, Apple Numbers, and LibreOffice Calc. Geographic JSON (GeoJSON) is what developers and GIS analysts building maps or running spatial queries need. This free converter takes a Excel file and produces a ready-to-use .geojson on the spot — everything runs in your browser, so your data never touches our server. Drop a file or paste text on the left, click convert, copy or download the result on the right.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert Excel to GeoJSON?
Open this page, paste your Excel text or drop your .xlsx file into the input panel, keep the dropdown set to Excel on the left and GeoJSON on the right, then click Convert. The .geojson output appears on the right; copy it to your clipboard or download the file.
Is this Excel-to-GeoJSON converter free?
Yes, completely free. No signup, no watermark, no upload limits. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using open-source libraries.
Does my file get uploaded anywhere?
No. The converter is fully client-side — your Excel file is parsed by JavaScript running in your own browser tab and never leaves your computer. We have no server-side processing for these tools.
What's the difference between Excel and GeoJSON?
Excel (XLSX) is Microsoft's spreadsheet format. It carries the same tabular data as CSV but preserves column formatting and opens directly in Excel. GeoJSON is a lightweight JSON-based standard. It's what modern web maps speak natively, with first-class support in Mapbox, Leaflet, and PostGIS.
Can I convert GeoJSON back to Excel?
Yes — switch the dropdowns or open our /tools/geojson-to-excel/ page. We support every directional pair between KML, GPX, GeoJSON, CSV, and Excel.
