I tried removing the leading anti-slash as well as adding "c:" to the path and the same error message was received for both instances.
I was able to convert the other.dat files from the downloaded data to shapefiles but for some reason the apt.dat file is not working. -----Original Message----- From: Even Rouault [mailto:even.roua...@mines-paris.org] Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2012 12:00 PM To: gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org Cc: Peter Mallen; Kyle Shannon Subject: Re: [gdal-dev] Converting a .dat(X-Plane) file to a shapefile Le jeudi 23 août 2012 20:57:19, Peter Mallen a écrit : > Hi Klye, > > > > The errors received are below: > > > > FAILURE: > > Unable to open datasource '\APTNav201107XP900\apt.dat' with the > following drivers. Ah, this is just that the input filename is likely incorrect. Perhaps try removing the leading anti-slash, or if the APTNav201107XP900 directory is just at the root of the C drive, use "c:\APTNav201107XP900\apt.dat" instead. _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
