More often than not, many geospatial dataset are still stored in geodatabase, containing list of shapefiles. Since it is not really friendly to be transferred to other platform, I hereby would like to share how to open your shapefile stored in geodatabase (.gdb), into your QGIS environment.

  1. Open your QGIS

I am using my QGIS 3.22.3-Białowieża version. Click “Layer → Add Layer → Add vector layer” or simply type in Ctrl + Shift + V to open the add layer window.
