Hi! I'm getting this error at reading a shape file that comes from a third party: > AilantMSY09 <- > readOGR(dsn="/media/TRANSCEND/MONTSENY2008/MONTSENY_GEODATA/FloraExotica2009/AilantMSY09/",layer="AilantMSY09") OGR data source with driver: ESRI Shapefile Source: "/media/TRANSCEND/MONTSENY2008/MONTSENY_GEODATA/FloraExotica2009/AilantMSY09/", layer: "AilantMSY09" with 62 features and 29 fields Error in make.names(fldnms, unique = TRUE) : invalid multibyte string 9
(Using R version 2.11.0, rgdal 0.6-26 and GDAL 1.6.3) Any guide on how to debug this problem? I've looked at the dbf file and do not see anything weird. I can display the file using QGIS, but cannot create a csv file (but QGIS uses OGR also, so this is not really an alternative). Thanks for any help (I can post the file if needed) Agus -- View this message in context: http://r-sig-geo.2731867.n2.nabble.com/Error-at-reading-shape-file-readOGR-tp5062752p5062752.html Sent from the R-sig-geo mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ R-sig-Geo mailing list R-sig-Geo@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo
