FAQ
EPA to SHP Conversion
What are EPA files?
An EPA file represents the Award BIOS image logo that appears on some older computers when you boot them. Opening and editing it usually requires advanced computer programming knowledge. The format was developed by Award Software International, a former manufacturer of BIOS, which later merged with Phoenix Technologies. The EPA format is very rare and is incompatible with most image handling programs.
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.
