Why do the examples of ogrinfo not work? That is, the
example shows a coal_dep.gml with contents of:
<gml:featureMember>
<Coal_Deposits fid="1">
<UNKNOWN>0.000</UNKNOWN>
<NA>0.000</NA>
<ID>2</ID>
<ID2>2</ID2>
<MARK>7</MARK>
<COALKEY>110</COALKEY>
<COALKEY2>110</COALKEY2>
<ogr:geometryProperty>
<gml:Point>
<gml:coordinates>78.531,50.694</gml:coordinates>
</gml:Point>
</ogr:geometryProperty>
</Coal_Deposits>
</gml:featureMember>
Yet ogrinfo doesn't recognize it:
> ogrinfo coal_dep.gml
FAILURE:
Unable to open datasource `coal_dep.gml' with the following drivers.
...
-> GML
This seems to indicate that the GML driver is compiled into
ogrinfo, but the file is not recognized. Why is that?
There are no projection associated with the gml file, so are
the coordinates in whatever the layer projection coordinates
are?
The example is off of the page:
