Hi All It seems like my previous message (see below) was deleted because of the attachment. Sorry for this off topic question, but is it possible to send attachments to this list?

Hi Pere I am attaching a zip file with the perl script, an example html form, a test dataset and setup instructions. I am assuming that your data has the following columns: id, longitude, latitude, species, genus, family. You can change this in the script if I got it wrong. It should work fine with large datasets (30,000 records should not be a problem at all). The script is configured to work on a windows machine, although with some minor changes to pathnames, it should work in linux/unix environments as well. Please let me know if you have any questions or have trouble getting it to work. I've never sent attachments on this list, so if the zipfile does not come through please let me know and I'll send it to you directly. - Chetan PS This version simply uploads the file to a temp location and then loads it into postgresql/postgis. I still need to look into Stephen's suggestion. On 7/5/07, pere roca <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Hi Chetan and Stephen , > many thanks for your offer!
