[gdal-dev] Failure to read some geojson files

[Joaquim Manuel Freire Luís]

Thanks Andrea,

I thought that could be the case and downloaded the file with a right-click-save-as and what I got seemed to be a valid json file and clearly not an html file. And that one doesn't work either. It does when I select to download as "raw".

Hi Joaquim,
the URL
https://github.com/OSGeo/PROJ/blob/9.1/docs/plot/data/coastline.geojson
does not point to the actual coastline.geojson file. It points to a GitHub HTML page.

You need to use the URL
https://github.com/OSGeo/PROJ/raw/9.1/docs/plot/data/coastline.geojson
instead.

Best regards.
