[gdal-dev] gdal_rasterize use SHP FID as burn attribute

[Peter Rankor]

List,

I need to rasterize a polygon layer coming from a SHP file. However, the
values in the outputraster need to be the FID of the corresponding polygon.

My command:
gdal_rasterize -a FID -l FECS FECS.shp flattenedRaster.tif

I get:
Failed to find field FID on layer FECS, skipping.

And the program aborts.

Any idea how to use a FID as rasterization attribute?

Regards,
Peter
