DESCRIPTION

17       ogrtindex program can be used to create a tileindex - a file containing
18       a list of the identities of a bunch of other  files  along  with  their
19       spatial  extents.  This is primarily intended to be used with MapServer
20       for tiled access to layers using the OGR connection type.
21
22       -lnum <n>
23              Add layer number n from each source file in the tile index.
24
25       -lname <name>
26              Add the layer named name from each source file in the  tile  in‐
27              dex.
28
29       -f <output_format>
30              Select  an output format name. The default is to create a shape‐
31              file.
32
33       -tileindex <field_name>
34              The name to use for the dataset name. Defaults to LOCATION.
35
36       -write_absolute_path
37              Filenames are written with absolute paths
38
39       -skip_different_projection
40              Only layers with same projection ref as layers already  inserted
41              in the tileindex will be inserted.
42
43       -t_srs <target_srs>
44              Extent  of input files will be transformed to the desired target
45              coordinate reference system. Using this option  generates  files
46              that  are  not  compatible with MapServer < 7.2. Default creates
47              simple rectangular polygons in  the  same  coordinate  reference
48              system as the input vector layers.
49
50              New in version 2.2.0.
51
52
53       -src_srs_name <field_name>
54              The  name of the field to store the SRS of each tile. This field
55              name can be  used  as  the  value  of  the  TILESRS  keyword  in
56              MapServer >= 7.2.
57
58              New in version 2.2.0.
59
60
61       -src_srs_format <format>
62              The  format  in  which  the  SRS  of  each tile must be written.
63              Available formats are: AUTO, WKT, EPSG, PROJ.
64
65              New in version 2.2.0.
66
67
68       -accept_different_schemas
69              By default ogrtindex checks that all layers  inserted  into  the
70              index  have  the same attribute schemas. If you specify this op‐
71              tion, this test will be disabled. Be aware that resulting  index
72              may be incompatible with MapServer!
73
74       If no -lnum or -lname arguments are given it is assumed that all layers
75       in source datasets should be added to the  tile  index  as  independent
76       records.
77
78       If  the  tile index already exists it will be appended to, otherwise it
79       will be created.

EXAMPLE

82       This example would create a shapefile (tindex.shp)  containing  a  tile
83       index  of the BL2000_LINK layers in all the NTF files in the wrk direc‐
84       tory:
85
86          ogrtindex tindex.shp wrk/*.NTF 1069148.900,419873.100 1069147.500,419870.200
87            1069146.400,419862.100 1069143.000,419860 1069142,419854.900
88            1069138.600,419850 1069135,419848.800 1069134.100,419843
89            1069130,419836.200 1069127.600,419824.600 1069123.800,419820.200
90            1069126.900,419815.500 1069126.900,419808.200 1069116.500,419798.700
