Why use a GeoJSON Linter?
Working with geospatial data requires precision. A single missing comma or bracket can break your map application. Our GeoJSON Validator ensures your data follows the standard format (RFC 7946).
Secure & Client-Side
Just like our Map Viewer, this tool processes data securely in your browser. Your sensitive location data is never uploaded.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does GeoJSON validation check?
The tool validates compliance with the RFC 7946 GeoJSON standard: valid JSON syntax, correct geometry type values, coordinate format (longitude/latitude order), Feature/FeatureCollection structure, and presence of required fields.
Why minify GeoJSON?
Minification removes unnecessary whitespace and line breaks to reduce file size. This speeds up data transfer in API responses and web applications — especially useful for large GeoJSON files with many features.
What is the difference between GeoJSON and Shapefile?
GeoJSON is a text-based, lightweight, web-friendly format. Shapefile is a binary multi-file format commonly used in desktop GIS software. GeoJSON is preferred for web applications; Shapefile for enterprise GIS workflows. You can view both formats in our Map Viewer.
