Hi,<br>
<br>
I used --- ogr2ogr -f "ESRI Shapefile" grid grid.csv -nlt multipoint
----- to convert a series of points (in csv format) into a shape file
of multiple points. I also have a grid.vrt and a grid.csvt file that
are used in this conversion. A directory named grid was created and
under it there are 3 files, namely, grid.shp, grid.dbf, and grid.shx.
Using ogrinfo grid returns,<br>
INFO: Open of 'grid', using driver 'ESRI Shapefile" successful. 1:grid
(multi point).<br>
Also using ogrinfo -ro -al grid returns a series of records, and the
last one is<br>
OGRFeature (grid): 5374<br>
long (Real) = -100.08310911830001<br>
lat (Real) = 44.963133226799997<br>
data (Real) = 3<br>
mapped dat (Real) = 68.000000000<br>
<br>
The above commands were executed in Linux with gdal installed. After
transferring grid folder to windows, I can open them, but nothing show
up (I tried ENVI and FWTool). For example, in FWTool, it seemed that
the shape file can be opened, but this is what showed in the Shape
Attributes window, <img src="cid:part1.00000906.02080209@und.edu"

Where did I do wrong? <br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
