How to convert GML Surface to SHP Using OGR? An example file (not the massive one I was originally working on, but should be similar) is here: ftp2.cits.nrcan.gc.ca/pub/canvec/50k_gml/033/c/… - the data should contain Canadian topo data, so it should all be points/lines/polygons. An ogrinfo -al -ro -so on this file gives a number of layers as 'Unrecognized geometry type (Surface)'. For example, Layer HD_1490009_2, which according to the metadata, should be 'islands' (all layers with _2 at the end are 'areas'). |

How to convert GML Surface to SHP Using OGR? The issue is that the feature should be a polygon, according to all of the documentation I can find. It appears that OGR is identifying it incorrectly as a surface when it shouldn't. |

DBF creation and manipulation without excel 2003 @dariapra: your comment applies to editing .dbfs in Excel as well--it's not the program used to edit the .dbf that causes the problem, it's that shapefiles get quite upset if you go and edit the .dbf in an 'outside' program. |

Problems merging DEMs or other raster datasets? Clipping Raster dataset to vector line? Beat me to it--I was also going to mention GDAL! |

DBF creation and manipulation without excel 2003 Open Office Calc will work like 'old' versions of Excel and allow you to edit and save the .dbf directly. |

What is the most annoying fact about the GIS market/industry? Open Source to the rescue. You should really check out Quantum GIS, GRASS, OpenJump, et al if you are worried about costs! |

Remove Duplicate Polygons Using Open Source Tools Actually, just importing the shapefile into GRASS creates a layer of overlapping polygons as the 2_polygon layer. I think this should be enough for me to go on! |

Remove Duplicate Polygons Using Open Source Tools Markus, A quick spin through v.digit doesn't sound like it will do what I want. Can you perhaps give an example of how I would accomplish my task using v.digit? |

Remove Duplicate Polygons Using Open Source Tools I don't believe v.clean allows users to 'interactively' identify and fix topology errors one by one. Please correct me if I am wrong. |
