Hi there, I'd be grateful if someone could advise on the quickest way to import ESRI Personal Geodatabase into GRASS.
A couple of questions: 1. Is it possible to directly import the mdb into GRASS after installing the mdb driver? 2. I've been using ogr2ogr (ogr2ogr --version GDAL 1.7.1, released 2010/02/08) to convert the mdb to shapefiles (which I subsequently plan to import into GRASS) but the geometry is not being created in the shapefile. Eg. ogr2ogr -f "ESRI Shapefile" -a_srs EPSG:4326 test_BWA_adm_ogr.shp PGeo:sample_pgeo ERROR 1: importFromWKT() failed on SRS 'GEOGCS["GCS_'. ERROR 1: importFromWKT() failed on SRS 'GEOGCS["GCS_'. ERROR 1: importFromWKT() failed on SRS 'GEOGCS["GCS_'.
