Creating a GeoPackage
At the start of this chapter, we looked at data formats and the GeoPackage format. Remember that, in QGIS 3, the GeoPackage format is the default format. So, let's finish this chapter by creating data in the GeoPackage format:
Create a new GeoPackage layer by clicking Layer | Create Layer | New GeoPackage Layer...:
Create a New GeoPackage Layer
Now fill in the resulting dialog box. Let's create a GeoPackage called My_first_GeoPackage, set the Geometry type as a Point, and add the ID and Name fields.
It should look similar to the following screenshot:
