Hi GPlates community,
Is it possible to export small circles created by GPlates to shp features ?
(Probably I was bad in my research so don’t hésitate to give me the link of the answer).
Thanks for your help

Hi Fabrice,
Not really, small circle features store a point and a radius (in GPML files) from which GPlates generates a tessellated small circle geometry at render time (in globe/map views).
However the actual small circle geometry itself is not stored in the feature (only point/radius), and therefore isn’t exported to non-GPML files.
Regards,
John
Very clear answer
Thank you John
The best
