GeoPackage[1] is an open, standards-based, platform-independent, portable, self-describing, compact format for transferring geospatial information. GeoPackages are widely used in programs like QGIS.

GeoPackage features (2D vector data), such as buildings or terrains can be imported into and exported from the Tygron Platform.

A GeoPackage contains one ore more layers. Generally each layer is assigned a particular geometry type, such as Point, Line or Multi Polygon.
