[Gdal-dev] Contouring that outputs polygons?

Ethan,

It might be a hack, but, you could always modify the output by adding
the first point as the last and changing the geometry type to polygon.
Or, you could just mod the gdal_contour code to make a polygon instead
of a linestring.  

Just a thought.

Been looking at gdal_contour a bit and noticed that it's output
shapetype is PolyLine. Does anyone know of any contouring utilities that
will output polygons? I'm not particular about what format but most
contouring apps I've found will render the polygons as images but not
export them.

Thanks,
