As an alternative to separate Parquet files, all vector data exports might also be imported into a single Spatialite (SQLite) file:

::

ogr2ogr -a_srs 'EPSG:3857' -of SQLite world-map.db -oo 'GEOM_POSSIBLE_NAMES=*wkt' -oo 'KEEP_GEOM_COLUMNS=NO' -oo 'AUTODETECT_TYPE=YES' -dsco 'SPATIALITE=YES' -update -overwrite regions.csv

Or into a single Geopackage file:

::

ogr2ogr -a_srs 'EPSG:3857' -of GPKG world-map.gpkg -oo 'GEOM_POSSIBLE_NAMES=*wkt' -oo 'KEEP_GEOM_COLUMNS=NO' -oo 'AUTODETECT_TYPE=YES' -update -overwrite regions.csv
