Why I make free shape file online viewer?

Short : I google search, but can't find one.

Long story :  Shape file is a proprietary file format owned by ESRI. Technically you have to have ESRI license and use ESRI software to open it.  Since most of public user don't have those cost of several thousands dollars ESRI license. They don't have ArcGis Pro software installed. When they get a shape file, they can't open it. ( QGIS is a free option, but they have to install it and know how to use QGIS to load shapefile, it is too hard for most of public user. ) 

 

 

  if you want to open shape file without a ESRI license and software. Here is rescue.
