I am new GRASS use, and learning GRASS to use conservation literacy using rare plant databases. To start with I converted a Kml file of the state of Meghalaya India to a shapefile using DNRGarmin. However when I try to open the shapefile in GRASS I keep getting errors and the map of the opened file does not look anything like the original map. What did I do wrong. I am attaching the shapefile and dbf file, I used.
thanks in advance Sonali This is the message I get in the command output console Projection of input dataset and current location appear to match Layer: Meghalay Counting polygons for 1 features...
