SBDF to Shapefile

[Diane Seidel]

I have a long list of township, range, section identifiers that I used to select individual shapes from a large shapefile of all the sections within a state. I used Insert Columns, matched on the identifiers and then did left outer join. I was left with just the shapes that were in my list.

This worked beautifully within spotfire, but I am only able to export the result to an SBDF file which I cannot use in another application.

Has anyone else found a way to convert an sbdf to a shapefile

When you export data to file from File Menu > Export > Data to File, you can save it in .txt or .csv format which you can use in other applications.

SBDF is spotfire binary data format which will open only in Spotfire.
