[gdal-dev] howto flattening of 3D shapefiles

[WolfgangZ]

Hi,

I hope that I'm on the correct mailing list. Otherwise please excuse my 
posting here.

How can I flatten a 3D shapefile? The problem is, that a software, where 
I need to import my shapefile, does not handle 3D shapfiles and 
therefore it can only display 2D shapefiles. However my shp is generated 
automatically and there is no option to flatten the shapes.

I just had a look at ogr2ogr but I did not figure out how to do this 
task. Any ideas?

Best regards
