# shapefile

A **shapefile**, also known as an Esri shapefile, is a file format for storing geographic vector data. You can upload shapefiles to [Mapbox Studio](https://docs.mapbox.com/studio-manual/) as vector [tilesets](https://docs.mapbox.com/help/ja/glossary/tileset/) that you can use in a custom map style

Shapefiles are composed of several individual files, which should be combined into a single `zip` file before uploading. Of these files, Mapbox can read `shp`, `shx`, `dbf`, `prj`, and `index` files. Any other files you upload in the `zip` file will be ignored.
