[GRASS-user] Opening a shape file in GRASS 6.4.3

[Markus Neteler]

Hi,

I tried your data with GRASS 7:

# create location from SHP file:
grass70 -c Meghalay.shp grassdata/Meghalay

# import, here the final "working" command line:
v.in.ogr Meghalay.shp out=Meghalay snap=100

Given that such "severe" snapping was needed (snapping is in map
units, here: meters), you will need to redo the conversion from KML
since the geometry in the SHAPE file is broken as the others
indicated.
