3DS to SHP Conversion: FAQ
What are 3DS files?
3DS is an extension attached to files created using 3DS Max, Autodesk's popular software for creating 3D imagery and animations. The program is mostly used in developing video games, production of TV commercials and movies, or in architectural modelling. The 3DS format was first launched in 1990, together with the first version of 3D Studio DOS, and has since gained a wide popularity, managing to become the actual standard for storing and transferring 3D models.
What are SHP files?
The SHP (Shapefile) format stores vector files compatible with various Geographical Information System (GIS) software. SHP was developed by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), an American provider of GIS software and geodatabase management solutions, with the aim of improving interoperability between GIS software produced by ESRI and other developers. An SHP file usually contains vectorial descriptions of geospatial data (e.g. rivers, lakes), including specific attributes.
