Solved: Shapefile to topojson: weird outcome

Sibrulotte · ‎05-21-2021

Hi,

I am using this shapefile provided by our electoral instance here in Québec:

Tried using mapshaper.org to convert to topojson with 2% simplification.

When I load my topojson as a shape in Shape map, I get what appears to be a representation of a picasso moisac.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong as I've done the same process with other Shapefiles and it has worked like a charm.

yes, we've seen this before. I think it's the projection type, it should be wgs84. Have a search on the forum for this.

You can change it in mapshaper.

Let me know how it goes.
