SLD

QGIS .qgs to GeoServer .sld

Plugin for QGIS that saves out SLD. Useful for simple choropleth maps with GeoServer. Implements solely renderers and styling options. Later on I thought about a tighter integration with GeoServer than to save first a SLD file and then upload or copy-and-paste to GeoServer. Using GeoServer's REST API the SLD preview dialog features now the possibility to upload the style directly to GeoServer.

QGIS to Carto

QGIS .qgs to Carto .css

Only supports graduated renderers. Everything is output as a line-color style, not sure if it works with polygon layers

ArcMap .mxd to OGC .sld

  • Arc2Earth - Can export layer styles in OGC SLD Format, can adapt by hand to Cascadenik or Carto. Don't know of a method in ArcPy to get layer graphic properties without going full on ArcObjects, nudge nudge.
