What is a TAB file?

TAB is a geospatial vector format used by MapInfo software. It stores spatial data along with attributes, typically in a set of files that includes .tab, .dat, .map, and .id components.

TAB files are widely used in GIS applications for mapping, spatial analysis, and geodata exchange. They support points, lines, polygons, and labels within custom coordinate systems.

How to open TAB files

TAB files can be opened with MapInfo Professional and other GIS tools like QGIS (with plugins) or FME. They often require accompanying files (.dat, .map, .id) for proper use.

Convert TAB to SHP, KML, or GeoJSON using AnyConv or through GIS export tools.
