Hi,

I'm using gdal to read vector vmap layers and it works great. I'm trying to get 
easier layer names than the ones returned from gdal, like 
"watrc...@hydro(*)_line" which are not very explicit for a end user point of 
view.

The software VPFView is able somehow to get more explicit names of vmap 
coverages. I've no idea if these are actually read from the vmap files. But it 
might be interesting for me to get it as well.

Is there any way, it can be done using gdal ? If not, is there a one to one 
link between gdal layer names and descriptions from VPFView ? like the layer 
"watrc...@hydro(*)_line" corresponding to coverage: "hydrography", feature 
class: "water courses"

Any help or information greatly appreciated,

Jean-Charles
