Andrew,

My understanding is that the SWIG based PHP bindings for GDAL/OGR are
incomplete and unsupported at this time.  Unless you are a developer willing
to put substantial effort into them, I would discourage their use.

There are also some hand crafted PHP bindings for just OGR developed by
DM Solutions for a client of theirs.  I don't have too much familiarity
with it, but you can find it at:
