[GRASS-user] Importing the GSHHS data set using v.in.ogr (grass_trunk)

[Nikos Alexandris]

Hi!

I am trying to import the GSHHS data set (full resolution, level 1, ESRI 
Shapefile) using v.in.ogr in G7.

While it starts nicely, and progresses, slowly though in my machince (after 
all, the data set is really large), it get's stuck at "Finding centroids 
for...".  Does it really require *too* much time?

Anybody imported this data set recently?

Best, Nikos
