ogrinfo file1.shp -sql "CREATE SPATIAL INDEX ON file1

Subject: [Qgis-user] Autocreating a qix file

I have a process which creates a new shapefile on a regular basis which I
then provide to one of our users, however I'd like the new file to be
spatially indexed.

Is there a way to automatically generate a qix (QGIS shapefile index) file?
By which I mean one that doesn't require any manual intervention.

Thanks,
Jonathan
