Exporting the ESRI shapefile of your field from application maps

Once you have added a field in Arvorum and created your first application map, you can use it to download a shapefile - or a package of files containing spatial information about the shape and location of the field. Every shapefile that you download includes files of the following formats:

• .shp
• .shx
• .dbf
• .prj- an optional file that stores information about what coordination system was used.
