<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have now a conceptual question. I went over the
file you have posted and what I see is that you have defined other containers
for </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>processing the data stored in the OGR
layers. What is the rationale for that ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Would it be justified to use directly OGR ? If not
what is the reason ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>thanks</FONT></DIV>

OGR</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have started to use gdal and OGR and I have the
following question,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am loading a mapinfo map into a OGR structure,
and I would like to be able to access all its components (lines, polygon,
points ).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The problem is that except functions like
DumpReadable, I do not see any public method in the code</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>that allows access to the data. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Am I missing something ? Is there a way to get to
the data ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>an example (s) or pointer to examples would be
very welcome.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>thanks </FONT></DIV>
