<p class="MsoNormal">I would say that it is best to still use ogrinfo. You did not tell what is<br>
your database so I can't tell the exact recipe for you but you will learn<br>
it. You need to know that there are different SQL dialects for GDAL: OGR<br>
SQL, SQLite, indirect_SQLite, and the native SQL for your database. They<br>
are all documented. If your database does not have native ST_Transform<br>
support then you take it from SQLite/Spatialite. For overriding the native<br>
SQL of your database you may need to use -dialect indirect_SQLite.<br>
<br>
Here is another example with a shapefile. A combination of OGR SQL and<br>
SQLite dialects is needed.<br>
<br>
Add a new column<br>
ogrinfo -sql "alter table states add wkt_geom text" states.shp<br>
<br>
There is space for only 254 charactes in a shapefile and that is not enough<br>
for big polygons but we can do at least something with a little trick. <br>
<br>
ogrinfo -dialect sqlite -sql "update states set<br>
wkt_geom=ST_AsText(ST_Transform(ST_Centroid(geometry),3857))" states.shp<br>
<br>
Check what we got<br>
ogrinfo states.shp -al<br>
