[Mapserver-users] How to convert a CSV data to shapefile

[Tyler Mitchell]

I'm working on something that will help to do just that using Python and
OGR (http://gdal.maptools.org/ogr/) or maybe just Python and Shapelib
directly.

I think it would be great if OGR supported reading/writing CSV format, then
you could use it to go between all the supported formats:
