Hi Zoltan,

I have MapInfo installed, if you post a mif/mid file I can test it
I will send you one off-list.
Thanks & regards,

before/after conversion with ogr2ogr, imut (which is based on FME) and
MapInfo Import command.

Have you tried to open in geomedia the Shape generated by ogr2og2, at
least to see if its geom is ok?
Yes, it works fine - barring the truncation plus the odd geometry problems:

Hi All,
I am trying to convert a bunch of MapInfo MID-MIF files to MapInfo TAB
files, because GeoMedia 6.1 will not "connect" to MIDMIF files.
Using this script on Ubuntu 10.04, ogr2ogr from GDAL 1.8.0, released
2011/01/12



for m in `ls *.mif` ; do n=`echo $m | awk -F . ' { print $1".tab" } ' `
; echo "******************** Starting $m" ; ogr2ogr -F "MapInfo File" $n
$m ; done

(Basically: ogr2ogr -F "MapInfo File" boundaries.tab boundaries.mif )




When I load the resulting .TAB, .ID, .MAP and .DAT files into GeoMedia,
I get coarse boxes and diagonal lines, albeit in the correct LatLong region.

When I use a very old "imutgui" from an old MapInfo to convert the same
MID MIFs to SHAPE, I can (correctly) load the SHAPEs into GeoMedia.

I cannot use the SHAPEfile route as the field names are truncated when
converting from MIDMIF to SHAPE.


Any idea why the TAB route messes up the geometries?

TIA,
Zoltan
