Hi Janet,

beside what Alexandre pointed out, there is an other free Open source tool to convert ArcMap mxd files into QGIS projects (MapQonverter, https://github.com/WhereGroup/mapqonverter). The difference to SLYR is, that MapQonverter must be used within ArcMap as an ArcMap Python toolbox. So it is only useful if you still have an ArcMap licence to work with.

Best regards

Stefan

Hello Janet,

It will really depend on what you mean by all your work. The projects and layouts are hard to come by, as they are in closed source format, which ain't interoperable with other software. But the data may be in one of hundreads of formats readable by QGIS, like Shapefiles and Filegeodatabases.

There's a plugin that tries to import QrcGIS styles into QGIS, but not sure what it can do. It's called SLYR, there a paid version and a community version/

    For a number of years, whilst a student and on the staff of
    University I have used ArcGis.  After this year I will be retiring
    from University and losing this access.  I would like to copy all
    my work over to QGIS, so that I can continue my research, could
    you let me know if this is possible and where I can locate
    directions to do it.  I have all my work on an external hard drive.

    Many thanks

    Janet
