What “shapefiles” means
WikipediaThe shapefile format is a geospatial vector data format for geographic information system (GIS) software. It is developed and regulated by Esri as a mostly open specification for data interoperability among Esri and other GIS software products.

Each item usually has attributes that describe it, such as name or temperature.
