[Gdal-dev] OGR2OGR GML coordinate reversal

[Jesse Cleary]

Hi folks

I'm trying to convert a GML file (3.1 I think) to a shapefile using 
ogr2ogr (GDAL 1.3.2.0).  The conversion works and the attributes 
translate nicely, but the destination file's point coordinates are 
reversed from the source file.  The source GML file uses the following 
nomenclature:

                <gml:Point>
                    <gml:pos>lat lon</gml:pos>
                </gml:Point>

OGR seems to expect the order to be lon then lat.  Is there any way to 
tell ogr2ogr how to reverse the expected order of coordinates inside 
these tags?  Or maybe my source file doesn't meet the GML spec and 
should be changed to lon then lat?  Thanks...


Jesse
