<h2>ogrinfo</h2>
Usage:
\endhtmlonly

\verbatim
ogrinfo [-ro] [-q] [-where restricted_where]
               [-spat xmin ymin xmax ymax] [-fid fid]

\section description DESCRIPTION
\endif

The ogrinfo program lists various information about an OGR supported data
source to stdout (the terminal). 

<dl>
<dt> <b>-ro</b>:</dt><dd> Open the data source in read-only mode.  </dd>
<dt> <b>-al</b>:</dt><dd> List all features of all layers (used instead of having to
give layer names as arguments).</dd>
<dt> <b>-so</b>:</dt><dd> Summary Only: supress listing of features, show only the 
summary information like projection, schema, feature count and
extents.</dd>
<dt> <b>-q</b>:</dt><dd> Quiet verbose reporting of various information, including
coordinate system, layer schema, extents, and feature count. </dd>
<dt> <b>-where</b> <i>restricted_where</i>:</dt><dd> An attribute query in a restricted
form of the queries used in the SQL WHERE statement.   Only features matching
the attribute query will be reported.</dd>
<dt> <b>-sql</b> <i>statement</i>:</dt><dd> Execute the indicated statement
and return the result.</dd>
<dt> <b>-spat</b> <i>xmin ymin xmax ymax</i>:</dt><dd> The area of interest.  Only
features within the rectangle will be reported.</dd>
<dt> <b>-fid</b> <i>fid</i>:</dt><dd> If provided, only the feature with this feature
id will be reported.  Operates exclusive of the spatial or attribute 
queries.</dd>
<dt> <b>--formats</b>:</dt><dd> List the format drivers that are
enabled.</dd>
<dt> <i>datasource_name</i>:</dt><dd> The data source to open.  May be a filename, 
directory or other virtual name.  See the <a href="ogr_formats.html">OGR Vector
Formats</a> list for supported datasources.</dd>
<dt> <i>layer</i>:</dt><dd> One or more layer names may be reported.</dd>
</dl>

If no layer names are passed then ogrinfo will report a list of available
layers (and their layerwide geometry type).  If layer name(s) are given then
their extents, coordinate system, feature count, geometry type, schema and
all features matching query parameters will be reported to the terminal. 
If no query parameters are provided, all features are reported.  

Geometries are reported in OGC WKT format.

Example reporting all layers in an NTF file:
\verbatim
% ogrinfo wrk/SHETLAND_ISLANDS.NTF
INFO: Open of `wrk/SHETLAND_ISLANDS.NTF'
using driver `UK .NTF' successful.
1: BL2000_LINK (Line String)
2: BL2000_POLY (None)
3: BL2000_COLLECTIONS (None)
4: FEATURE_CLASSES (None)

Example using an attribute query is used to restrict the output of the 
features in a layer:
\verbatim
% ogrinfo -ro -where 'GLOBAL_LINK_ID=185878' wrk/SHETLAND_ISLANDS.NTF BL2000_LINK

\section description DESCRIPTION
\endif

This program can be used to convert simple features data between file formats
performing various operations during the process such as spatial or attribute
selections, reducing the set of attributes, setting the output coordinate 
system or even reprojecting the features during translation.

<dl>
<dt><b> -f</b><em> format_name</em>:</dt><dd> output file format name, possible values are:
	 \verbatim
     -f "ESRI Shapefile"
     -f "TIGER"
     -f "MapInfo File"
     -f "GML"
     -f "PostgreSQL"
	 \endverbatim
	 </dd>
<dt><b>-append</b>:</dt><dd> Append to existing layer instead of creating
new</dd>
<dt>  <b>-update</b>:</dt><dd> Open existing output datasource in update mode</dd>
<dt> <b>-select</b><em> field_list</em>:</dt><dd> Comma-delimited list of
fields from input layer to copy to the new layer (defaults to all)</dd>
<dt> <b>-where</b><em> restricted_where</em>:</dt><dd> Attribute query (like SQL WHERE)</dd>
<dt> <b>-spat</b><em> xmin ymin xmax ymax</em>:</dt><dd> spatial query extents</dd>
<dt> <b>-dsco</b> <em>NAME=VALUE</em>:</dt><dd> Dataset creation option (format specific)</dd>
<dt> <b>-lco</b><em>  NAME=VALUE</em>:</dt><dd> Layer creation option (format specific)</dd>
<dt> <b>-nln</b><em> name</em>:</dt><dd> Assign an alternate name to the new layer</dd>
<dt> <b>-a_srs</b><em> srs_def</em>:</dt><dd> Assign an output SRS</dd>
<dt> <b>-t_srs</b><em> srs_def</em>:</dt><dd> Reproject/transform to this SRS on output</dd>
<dt> <b>-s_srs</b><em> srs_def</em>:</dt><dd> Override source SRS</dd>
</dl>

 Srs_def can be a full WKT definition (hard to escape properly),
 or a well known definition (ie. EPSG:4326) or a file with a WKT
 definition.

creates a tileindex
\section synopsis SYNOPSIS
\endif

\htmlonly
<h2>ogrtindex</h2>
Usage:
\endhtmlonly

\verbatim
ogrtindex [-lnum n]... [-lname name]... [-f output_format]
                 output_dataset src_dataset...
\endverbatim

\if man
\section description DESCRIPTION
\endif

The ogrtindex program can be used to create a tileindex - a file containing
a list of the identities of a bunch of other files along with there spatial
extents.  This is primarily intended to be used with the 
<a href="http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/">UMN MapServer</a> for tiled access
to layers using the OGR connection type. 

<dl>
<dt><b>-lnum</b> <em>n</em>:</dt><dd> Add layer number 'n' from each source
		file in the tile index.</dd>
<dt><b>-lname</b> <em>name</em>:</dt><dd> Add the layer named 'name' from each source file
        in the tile index.</dd>
<dt><b>-f</b> <em>output_format</em>:</dt><dd> Select an output format name.  The default
        is to create a shapefile.</dd>
<dt><b>-tileindex</b> <em>field_name</em>:</dt><dd> The name to use for the dataset name.
        Defaults to LOCATION.</dd>
</dl>

If no -lnum or -lname arguments are given it is assumed that
all layers in source datasets should be added to the tile index
as independent records.

If the tile index already exists it will be appended to, otherwise it will
be created.  

It is a flaw of the current ogrtindex program that no attempt is made to
copy the coordinate system definition from the source datasets to the tile
index (as is expected by MapServer when PROJECTION AUTO is in use).   

\if man
\section example EXAMPLE
\endif

This example would create a shapefile (tindex.shp) containing a tile index
of the BL2000_LINK layers in all the NTF files in the wrk directory:
\verbatim
% ogrtindex tindex.shp wrk/*.NTF
\endverbatim
