Yes, probably things in that direction. Well that could be a whole subject to discuss in face to face for people present in Vienna. A further step would be to have drivers that would do both the raster and vector side at the same time (think of Geopackage for example). A dataset/datasource would have raster band and vector layers. -- Geospatial professional services http://even.rouault.free.fr/services.html _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
