I needed a really big .json file for testing various code.
The CityLots spatial data layer is a representation of the City and County of San Francisco's Subdivision parcels. The initial file is in the .shp (shapefile) format and as the conversion process is quite cumbersome I uploaded the data as a .json file.
Warning: size is 189,9 MB.
The initial file can be downloaded from San Francisco Data.
- download the
.zipfile from San Francisco Data - install gdal
- help for installing on a mac can be found here and here
- install shp2json via
npm install shp2json -g - run
$ shp2json citylots.zip citylots.jsonfrom the command line
- substack's shp2json
