Markus,

   I'm importing all species into their own locations; will combine later.
The above command worked (so far) with four species, but on one it threw a
seqfault:

GRASS 7.3.svn (Fish):~/data/grassdata > v.in.ogr in=~/data/species/fish/RedbandTrout_201201_v931.gdb/ location=redband_trout_loc
WARNING: Updating spatial reference with embedded proj4 definition
WARNING: Datum <unknown> not recognised by GRASS and no parameters found
Segmentation fault

   I tried to find the proj4 defintion but have no idea in which file it is
found. I can provide the directory if desired; it's 18M so I could put it on
Dropbox. Or, is there something I can do here to clear the blockage?

Regards,

Rich
