What the file carries

The GeoParquet file for Ipameri: the whole map comes as a single file, the file is binary — it is opened by a program, not by an editor, all features lie in one collection, and the source layer name stays in the _layer field, OpenStreetMap tags are kept as feature attributes.

File size

The expected size of the GeoParquet file for Ipameri is about 885 KB; the exact size depends on the chosen layers and area.

How to use GeoParquet for Ipameri

  1. DuckDB — INSTALL spatial; LOAD spatial; SELECT * FROM 'map.parquet' WHERE _layer='buildings'; the query runs straight against the file, no import needed.
  2. Python — geopandas.read_parquet("map.parquet"), then the usual GeoDataFrame work, spatial joins included.
  3. QGIS 3.28 and newer — opens GeoParquet if the GDAL build has Parquet support; if the format is not visible, convert it: ogr2ogr -f GPKG out.gpkg map.parquet.

FAQ: GeoParquet for Ipameri

Why is GeoParquet better than Shapefile?

GeoParquet supports billions of rows, columnar queries, compression, and cloud-native access.

Can I open GeoParquet in DuckDB?

Yes, DuckDB natively supports GeoParquet via the spatial extension.

How do I split the export by layer?

Every row has a _layer column with the name of its source layer. Filtering on it in DuckDB, GeoPandas or Spark separates roads from buildings and water in a single query.

In what form is the geometry stored?

In binary WKB format, in a separate column; the coordinate system (WGS84, EPSG:4326) is described in the file metadata per the GeoParquet specification. Libraries restore the geometry automatically.

What compression is the file packed with?

Snappy by default — a compromise between size and reading speed. Parquet also supports gzip and zstd: they give a smaller file but decompress a little more slowly.
