Hi Knut, This procedure has already been described briefly in the GIS user manual. Take a look there for a start, included below for your convenience.
"1.1.2. Production of GeoJSON files with GDAL GDAL is a multi-platform toolkit for the manipulation of geographical data. It is freely available for a wide-range of platforms at http://gdal.org Production of GeoJSON files are straightforward with GDAL. Just execute (on Windows) ogr2ogr.exe -f "GeoJSON" dst_datasource_name src_datasource_name or on Linux ogr2ogr -f "GeoJSON"dst_datasource_name src_datasource_name Replace dst_datasource_name with the path to the destination geographical data file (following the naming convention described above) and src_datasource_name with the source geographical data file. Take note that you may need to specify input and output coordinate systems as described above. " Also, FME will do this job very nicely.
