8
9       The following utilities are distributed as part of the OGR Simple
10       Features toolkit:
11
12       · ogrinfo - Lists information about an OGR supported data source
13       · ogr2ogr - Converts simple features data between file formats
14       · ogrtindex - Creates a tileindex
15       · ogrlineref - Create linear reference and provide some calculations
16         using it
17       · ogrmerge - Merge several vector datasets into a single one

General Command Line Switches

19       All GDAL OGR command line utility programs support the following
20       'general' options.
21       --version
22           Report the version of GDAL and exit.
23       --formats
24           List all vector formats supported by this GDAL build (read-only and
25           read-write) and exit. The format support is indicated as follows:
26           'ro' is read-only driver; 'rw' is read or write (i.e. supports
27           CreateCopy); 'rw+' is read, write and update (i.e. supports
28           Create). A 'v' is appended for formats supporting virtual IO
29           (/vsimem, /vsigzip, /vsizip, etc). A 's' is appended for formats
30           supporting subdatasets.
31       --format format
32           List detailed information about a single format driver. The format
33           should be the short name reported in the --formats list, such as
34           GML.
35       --optfile file
36           Read the named file and substitute the contents into the command
37           line options list. Lines beginning with # will be ignored. Multi-
38           word arguments may be kept together with double quotes.
39       --config key value
40           Sets the named configuration keyword to the given value, as opposed
41           to setting them as environment variables. Some common configuration
42           keywords are SHAPE_ENCODING (force shapefile driver to read DBF
43           files with the given character encoding) and CPL_TEMPDIR (define
44           the location of temporary files). Individual drivers may be
45           influenced by other configuration options.
46       --debug value
47           Control what debugging messages are emitted. A value of ON will
48           enable all debug messages. A value of OFF will disable all debug
49           messages. Another value will select only debug messages containing
50           that string in the debug prefix code.
51       --help-general
52           Gives a brief usage message for the generic GDAL OGR command line
53           options and exit.
