GeoJSON is a lightweight format for encoding geographic data using JSON (JavaScript Object Notation). It is commonly used in web mapping applications, GIS platforms, and spatial databases. GeoJSON can represent points, lines, polygons, and multi-geometries, making it useful for showing administrative boundaries, postcode areas, and deprivation indices. Its simplicity and compatibility with web technologies make it easy to work with and read by both humans and machines.
