Compress and Archive Files with ZIP, TAR, GZIP, and BZ2

This function compresses two files into different formats: ZIP, TAR, GZIP, and BZ2. It also integrates geographic spatial data into Python using the ArcGIS library.

Technology Stack : os, zipfile, shutil, tarfile, gzip, bz2, arcgis

Code Type : File compression and decompression

Code Difficulty : Intermediate
