<h1 id='restrictions'>License & Restrictions</h1>
<p>This is open source software under the permissive MIT license.

open, or any other kind of data with this tool without the tool changing
its legal status.</p>
<h1 id='faq'>FAQ</h1>
<h2 id='what-now'>So I've made a map, what do I do now?</h2>
<p>If you just want to share your map, you can click the 'Share' tab
and send a link to friends, or grab HTML for embedding it on your
website.</p>
<p>For more flexibility, download the GeoJSON data and you can use it
with a number of different tools:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href='http://tilemill.com/'>TileMill</a> is an open source, free desktop application for
designing maps with awesome style flexibility.
<li><a href='http://qgis.org/'>QGIS</a> is an open source, free desktop application for
doing GIS analysis on data.
<li><a href='http://leafletjs.com/'>Leaflet</a> is an open source map framework
for embedding maps in webpages.
</ul>
<h2 id='other-formats'>How Do I Import Shapefiles or unsupported formats?</h2>
<p>geojson.io doesn't support Shapefile import directly, but you can
convert Shapefiles to GeoJSON first, and then upload GeoJSON to
geojson.io.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href='http://ogre.adc4gis.com/'>ogre</a>, an online tool for shapefile to geojson conversion</li>
<li><a href='http://www.shpescape.com/'>shpescape</a>, another online tool that supports conversion</li>
<li><a href='http://www.arc2earth.com/'>Arc2Earth</a>, an ArcGIS plugin that exports GeoJSON</li>
<li><a href='https://github.com/project-open-data/esri2open'>esri2open</a>, a python script that converts ESRI Feature classes to GeoJSON</li>
