How to upload Shapefile to Cartaro that was created by GIS Desktop Software? [#2335259]

Cartaro allows to import many different spatial file formats, also zipped Shapefiles. You only need to install the PHP GDAL extension. Have a look at the GDAL module documentation for details on how to install and use it: https://www.drupal.org/node/2133101

GDAL is installed on my localhost (Windows) as I tested it as per http://cartometric.com/blog/2011/10/17/install-gdal-on-windows/ (under - Confirming a Successful GDAL Installation)

Also, GDAL geodata module is installed which comes default with Cartaro. But, I didn't find a way to import spatial file formart within drupal. Is there something I'm missing. Cartaro documentation is not elaborated, i think.

Right now Windows ist not really supported by Cartaro. Please install Cartaro on a (virutal) Linux machine and build the PHP GDAL extension as documented here: https://www.drupal.org/node/2133103
