# trying with a grass-vector ##(following the example & terminology used in the page "drv_gpx.html") ogr2ogr -f "ESRI Shapefile" befliegung_test.shp /geo/grassdb/rlp_fgaps/gk2_opt6_test/PERMANENT/vector/befliegung/head -sql "select AREA AS area, PERIMETER AS perimeter from /geo/grassdb/rlp_fgaps/gk2_opt6_test/PERMANENT/vector/befliegung/head" ERROR 1: SQL: Missing comma after column AREA in SELECT statement. ## I don't think that a comma is required after the "field" name I get the same ERROR when trying on a shapefile.
