<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The error seems to happen in PostGIS which creates a field for “shape_leng” as NUMERIC(19,11) and then insertion of value 275736334.13200003000 fails. If GDAL user gets this kind of (invalid?) shapefile, what can they
do? I had a try with –oo ADJUST_TYPE=YES but with no luck. Opening the shapefile and saving a copy with OpenJUMP indeed works because OpenJUMP is changing the field definition from Shape_Leng: Real (19.11) into Shape_Leng: Real (33.16).
