Is it possible to draw out some SVG shapes in Illustrator or Inkscape and convert them to Shapefile using GDAL or QGIS (or something else perhaps?).
I have an image that I can easily georeference, but there are many shapes I would like to draw out and using a tool like GIMP to draw them out would be much easier than using QGIS.
Any suggestions?
