# gdal3.js - Gdal compiled to JavaScript
[![npm](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/gdal3.js?style=for-the-badge)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/gdal3.js)

gdal3.js is a port of Gdal applications (**gdal_translate**, **ogr2ogr**, **gdal_rasterize**, **gdalwarp**, **gdaltransform**) to Webassembly. It allows you to convert raster and vector geospatial data to various formats and coordinate systems.

gdal3.js uses emscripten to compile Gdal, proj, geos, spatialite, sqlite, geotiff, tiff, webp, expat, zlib and iconv to webassembly.

If you are building a native application in JavaScript (using Electron for instance), or are working in node.js, you will likely prefer to use a native binding of Gdal to JavaScript. A native binding will be faster because it will run native code.

**gdal3.js GUI**

gdal3.js GUI is a web application that provides a gui to gdal_translate, ogr2ogr and gdal_rasterize applications to be used online. Uses gdal3.js in the background.
It runs on the browser and files are converted on the client side.

**Builder such as Webpack (Vue, React, Angular, ...)**
```bash
pnpm add gdal3.js
# or
yarn add gdal3.js
# or
npm install gdal3.js
```

```js
import initGdalJs from 'gdal3.js';

initGdalJs({ path: 'static' }).then((Gdal) => {});
```

```js
plugins: [
new CopyWebpackPlugin({
