<div dir="ltr"><div>Salut Matthieu,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Nice idea! </div>
<div> </div>
<div>It's a good alternative to our GeoConverter (<a href="http://geoconverter.hsr.ch/">http://geoconverter.hsr.ch</a>) - especially for large files.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I actually could'nt test it right away as the Windows Installer on this PC is disabled (opened it instead with 'LessMSIerables'). Would'nt it be more "open source" like, when there is only a single executable 'ogr2gui.exe' (only with registry entries if really needed...)?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>When looking at the screen shots, I'm missing an optional "Source SRS (EPSG no.)" field, because many GIS formats don't have SRS information available.<br></div>
<div>Yours, Stefan</div>
