Thanks, I thought there was something already tailored for the NHD data, that was what I was looking for. I put the link on the wiki page. I checked the link to the NHD files, and they are all in .mdb access data files (personal geodatabase). What is everyone using to get them into shape files? org2ogr? Directly to shp, or thru postgreSQL? I found this command line to try out: ogr2ogr -f "ESRI Shapefile" [output dir] [data].mdb using the latest FWTools2.4.2 a 500mb .mdb turns into 140mb of .shp files and most seem empty. Suggestions on what I am doing wrong?? -- Dale Puch _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
