GML to AI Conversion
What are GML files?
GML (Geography Markup Language) is an XML-based language for describing geographic features, developed by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and adopted as the international standard ISO 19136. A GML file is readable text in which every object on a map, such as a building, a road, a lake, or a boundary, is written down together with its shape and its attributes, for example a name, a type, or a population. The language is a toolbox rather than a fixed list of objects: communities and organizations define their own application schemas on top of it, which is how national mapping data, cadastral records, and the data of 3D city models are exchanged. GML is also the standard way for web map services to return features.
What are AI files?
AI (Adobe Illustrator Artwork) is a proprietary format used by Adobe Illustrator to create vector-based drawings. Though highly popular among graphic designer due to its ability to offer the possibility of creating and editing vector-based drawings. AI files can prove to be incompatible with most image viewers. For this reason, designers usually prefer to convert them to a more accessible format after finalizing the drawing.
