Hello GDAL colleagues, This may be a simple question for most of you but I thought I would ask it anyhow as I am at an impasse. I have a Counties shape file. I am attempting to convert it to raster utilizing gdal_rasterize, and this does work. However, I am attempting to carry into the output file the county name preferably e.g. Orange County, or at least a county identify of some kind. I have utilized a command similar to the following:
gdal_rasterize -a COUNTY -l -sql "select COUNTY, * from Counties" Counties Counties.shp CountiesRaster.tif However, when I open the resulting raster file in ArcGIS and click on one of the pixel to identify it I don’t see the county name. Is the county name there and I am just not seeing it in ArcGIS indentify. I realize there are probably more GDAL intensive ways to check for the data, but I am still learning. I was hoping to someone could explain to me what I am doing incorrectly. Thanks, Derek _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
