[GRASS-user] converting LAT/LON coordinates to X/Y coordinates

[Szilard Albert]

Hello,

I am trying to batch convert Lat/Lon coordinates of several hundred points
into XY coordinates.
Would this be possible using ogr2ogr or similar?

Please see a sample of input (ukoa navigation text file).
Columns 1-9 are "Line" name, 23-25 "point" name, 26-46 lat/lon.

I can easily manipulate the columns position if needed.

regards,
Sid
