Hi Jürgen,

Thanks for your answer.

This means that the ESRI API is absolutely necessary.
Moreover, if I don't misunderstand it, it needs to be built, using 
Visual Studio.
Seems at first sight very complicated.

In any case, I sent an e-mail to the data provider, asking him to 
provide these data in a less closed format, such as a shapefile.


Thanks again for all the responses,

Paul
