Notion to QGIS
Export your Notion location database to GeoJSON for professional spatial analysis in QGIS
Free • No credit card required • Updated
QGIS is the world's most popular open-source GIS, with roughly 22 million sessions per month and a community estimated in the millions. But getting Notion data into QGIS means manual CSV exports, coordinate cleanup, and projection headaches every time the source changes.
NotionToMaps serves any Notion database with addresses or Place properties at a live RFC 7946 GeoJSON URL — the format QGIS reads natively. Point QGIS at the URL once, style it, run spatial analysis, and refresh the layer whenever your Notion data changes. No manual coordinate cleanup, no broken re-imports.

What is GEOJSON?
QGIS is the leading open-source Geographic Information System used by researchers, urban planners, and GIS professionals worldwide. Export your Notion database to GeoJSON and import directly into QGIS for spatial analysis, cartographic visualization, and integration with other geospatial datasets. All your Notion properties become feature attributes for analysis.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What QGIS version supports GeoJSON import?
All modern QGIS versions (3.x) support GeoJSON natively. Simply drag the file into QGIS or use Layer → Add Layer → Add Vector Layer.
Are my Notion properties preserved as attributes?
Yes! Every Notion property becomes a feature attribute in the GeoJSON. View them in the attribute table, use for styling, filtering, and analysis.
What coordinate reference system does the export use?
GeoJSON exports use WGS84 (EPSG:4326) per the GeoJSON specification. QGIS auto-detects the CRS. Reproject using Processing → Reproject Layer if needed.
Can I join my Notion data with other spatial datasets?
Absolutely! Use QGIS spatial joins to combine your Notion locations with census data, administrative boundaries, land use, or any other GIS layers.
How do I style points by a Notion property?
Right-click layer → Properties → Symbology → Categorized or Graduated. Choose your Notion property as the value field for data-driven styling.
Can I load the GeoJSON into PostGIS?
Yes! Use ogr2ogr or QGIS DB Manager to import GeoJSON into PostGIS. Your Notion data becomes a spatial table for SQL queries.
Is GeoJSON better than Shapefile for QGIS?
GeoJSON is often preferred: single file, human-readable, no field name limits, UTF-8 support. Shapefiles have legacy compatibility but more limitations.
