geographic component, another for metadata, and a DBF for non-geographic attribute data. We have the capability to edit it using a dedicated editor. However, I acknowledge that it might be more beneficial for everyone not to use this format for a file that
may require editing if necessary. Given that our objective is to integrate the Vector MiraMon driver (we are finalizing details and more details), we are open to making this change.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p>Actually thinking that if your intent is to upstream the driver at some point, a CSV resource file would be better than a DBF one, because CSV is text (whereas DBF is somehow binary, or at least not directly editable), which makes it more appropriate for
review & editing.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Is the GDAL_DATA environment variable set in your environment ? If so, just remove the trailing ';' . GDAL_DATA doesn't support multiple paths<o:p></o:p></p>
