Hi Everyone,

 

I am attempting to convert data from a .dat file (X-Plane data) into
shapefiles.  Below is the ogr2ogr command I found online, but this
always gives errors:

 

ogr2ogr apt_shapes apt.dat

 

If anyone has any experience or tips on how to correctly do this I would
really appreciate it.

 

 

Thank You,

 

 

Peter Mallen
