[gdal-dev] Re: converting KML to CSV

[Stefan Keller]

Try this:

% ogrinfo -ro Bahnhoefe.kml
INFO: Open of `Bahnhoefe.kml'
      using driver `KML' successful.
1: BahnhoefeWGS84 (Point)

% ogr2ogr -f CSV out Bahnhoefe.kml -sql "select *,OGR_GOM_WKT from
BahnhoefeWGS84"
...or my online converter http://geoconverter.hsr.ch
