[postgis-users] Trying to import natural earth data into

Then you can try the various v.clean option. There is one to remove dangles, for instance.
Happy hunt!

Oggetto: [postgis-users] Trying to import natural earth data into
A: <postgis-users at postgis.refractions.net>

regarding GRASS and PostGIS on Natural Earth vectors

   unfortunately, it seems that a v.in.ogr / v.out.ogr round trip
does *not* clean the vectors completely, as tested by st_isValid()

--
GRASS trunk (7)
PostGIS 1.5.3
current Natural Earth shp files,

tested table: 10m_urban_areas
12,022 polys

st_isValid() shows 31 errors
  self-intersection and ring self-intersection

PostGIS ST_Buffer(0) creates output
that is clean of these errors, according to PostGIS

GRASS 7 v.in.ogr / v.out.ogr creates output
that still has 14 polys with "ring self-intersection"
according to PostGIS
-

ps -
   this is true with or without benefit of the mighty "for" loop

best regards
   -Brian
