[GRASS-user] Trying to export a 3d Layer

[Matthew Pulis]

I did not create the layer myself. Downloaded it in the north Carolina
package that came out with Grass Book 3

v.db.select tells you that you haven't an associated db tabel... Maybe
something wrong while creating your elev_contoru_3m layer?

Hi,

 

I am trying to export a contour layer to PostGIS / Shapefile / GML but to no
avail. The files I am trying to export are in GRASS Vector format, thus I am
using v.out.ogr. I am using the dataset found with the Grass Book Edition 3
(North Carolina). My layer is elev_contour_3m. I tried also to load the 10m
contour layer in the same dataset but got the same results, so I do not
think it is a problem of the vector files, but more of an exporting problem.

 

Any help how I can make this layer into a useable layer outside GRASS is
extremely appreciated!

 

I am taking this email to wish everyone on the list best wishes for
Christmas and New Year to you and your families :)

 

 

Matthew

 

 

 

I am supplying some info which might help you give me some tips how I can do
it.

And these are the output formats I tried :

 

GRASS 6.3.0RC1 (thesis):~/thesis_gis/thesis/yancho/vector/elev_contour_3m >
v.out.ogr input=elev_contour_3m format=ESRI_Shapefile
dsn=/home/yancho/elevation.shp

WARNING: Vector map <elev_contour_3m> is 3D. Use format specific layer

         creation options (parameter 'lco') to export in 3D rather than 2D

         (default)

DBMI-DBF driver error:

I tried also lco="DIM=3" but got same results.
