/*! \page ogr_utilities OGR Utility Programs
\brief A collection of OGR related programs.

The following utilities are distributed as part of the OGR Simple Features
toolkit:

<ul>
<li> \ref ogrinfo - Lists information about an OGR supported data source
<li> \ref ogr2ogr - Converts simple features data between file formats
<li> \ref ogrtindex - Creates a tileindex
<li> \ref ogrlineref - Create linear reference and provide some calculations using it
<li> \ref ogrmerge - Merge several vector datasets into a single one
</ul>

\section ogr_utilities_switches General Command Line Switches
All GDAL OGR command line utility programs support the following
"general" options.<p>

<dl>
<dt> <b>\-\-version</b></dt><dd> Report the version of GDAL and exit.</dd>

<dt> <b>\-\-formats</b></dt><dd> List all vector formats supported by this
GDAL build (read-only and read-write) and exit. The format support is indicated
 as follows: 'ro' is read-only driver;
'rw' is read or write (i.e. supports CreateCopy);
'rw+' is read, write and update (i.e. supports Create).
A 'v' is appended for formats supporting virtual IO (/vsimem, /vsigzip, /vsizip, etc).
A 's' is appended for formats supporting subdatasets.
</dd>

<dt> <b>\-\-format</b> <i>format</i></dt><dd>
List detailed information about a single format driver.  The <i>format</i>
should be the short name reported in the <b>\-\-formats</b> list, such as
GML.</dd>

<dt> <b>\-\-optfile</b> <i>file</i></dt><dd>
Read the named file and substitute the contents into the command line
options list.  Lines beginning with # will be ignored.  Multi-word arguments
may be kept together with double quotes.
</dd>

<dt> <b>\-\-config</b> <i>key value</i></dt><dd>
Sets the named <a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/ConfigOptions">
configuration keyword</a> to the given value, as opposed to
setting them as environment variables.  Some common configuration keywords
are SHAPE_ENCODING (force shapefile driver to read DBF files with the given
character encoding) and CPL_TEMPDIR (define the location of temporary files).
Individual drivers may be influenced by other configuration options.
</dd>

<dt> <b>\-\-debug</b> <i>value</i></dt><dd>
Control what debugging messages are emitted.  A value of <i>ON</i> will
enable all debug messages.  A value of <i>OFF</i> will disable all debug
messages.  Another value will select only debug messages containing that
string in the debug prefix code.
</dd>

<dt> <b>\-\-help-general</b></dt><dd>
Gives a brief usage message for the generic GDAL OGR command line options
and exit.
</dd>

\section ogrinfo_description DESCRIPTION

The ogrinfo program lists various information about an OGR supported data
source to stdout (the terminal).

<dl>
<dt> <b>-ro</b>:</dt><dd> Open the data source in read-only mode.  </dd>
<dt> <b>-al</b>:</dt><dd> List all features of all layers (used instead of having to
give layer names as arguments).</dd>
<dt> <b>-rl</b>:</dt><dd> (Available in GDAL 2.2) Enable random layer reading mode,
i.e. iterate over features in the order they are found in the dataset, and not
layer per layer. This can be significantly faster for some formats (for example
OSM, GMLAS).</dd>
<dt> <b>-so</b>:</dt><dd> Summary Only: suppress listing of features, show only the
summary information like projection, schema, feature count and
extents.</dd>
<dt> <b>-q</b>:</dt><dd> Quiet verbose reporting of various information, including
coordinate system, layer schema, extents, and feature count. </dd>
<dt> <b>-where</b> <i>restricted_where</i>:</dt><dd> An attribute query in a restricted
form of the queries used in the SQL WHERE statement.   Only features matching
the attribute query will be reported. Starting with GDAL 2.1, the @\filename syntax
can be used to indicate that the content is in the pointed filename.</dd>
<dt> <b>-sql</b> <i>statement</i>:</dt><dd> Execute the indicated SQL statement
and return the result. Starting with GDAL 2.1, the \@filename syntax
can be used to indicate that the content is in the pointed filename.</dd>
<dt> <b>-dialect</b> <em>dialect</em>:</dt><dd> SQL dialect.  In some cases can be used to use (unoptimized) OGR SQL instead of the native SQL of an RDBMS by passing OGRSQL.
Starting with GDAL 1.10, the "SQLITE" dialect can also be used with any datasource.</dd>
<dt> <b>-spat</b> <i>xmin ymin xmax ymax</i>:</dt><dd> The area of interest.  Only
features within the rectangle will be reported.</dd>
<dt> <b>-geomfield</b> <i>field</i>:</dt><dd> (OGR &gt;= 1.11) Name of the geometry field
on which the spatial filter operates on.</dd>
<dt> <b>-fid</b> <i>fid</i>:</dt><dd> If provided, only the feature with this feature
id will be reported.  Operates exclusive of the spatial or attribute
queries. Note: if you want to select several features based on their feature id, you can
also use the fact the 'fid' is a special field recognized by OGR SQL. So, '-where "fid in (1,3,5)"'
would select features 1, 3 and 5.</dd>
<dt> <b>-fields</b>={YES/NO}:</dt><dd> (starting with GDAL 1.6.0) If set to NO,
the feature dump will not display field values. Default value is YES.</dd>
<dt> <b>-geom</b>={YES/NO/SUMMARY/WKT/ISO_WKT}:</dt><dd> (starting
with GDAL 1.6.0) If set to NO, the feature dump will not display the
geometry. If set to SUMMARY, only a summary of the geometry will be
displayed. If set to YES or ISO_WKT, the geometry will be reported in
full OGC WKT format. If set to WKT the geometry will be reported in
legacy WKT. Default value is YES. (WKT and ISO_WKT are available
starting with GDAL 2.1, which also changes the default to
ISO_WKT)</dd>
<dt> <b>-oo</b> <em>NAME=VALUE</em>:</dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 2.0) Dataset open option (format specific)</dd>
<dt> <b>-nomd</b></dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 2.0)  Suppress metadata printing. Some datasets may contain a lot
of metadata strings.</dd>
<dt> <b>-listmdd</b></dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 2.0)  List all metadata domains available for the dataset.</dd>
<dt> <b>-mdd domain</b></dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 2.0)  Report metadata for the specified domain.
"all" can be used to report metadata in all domains</dd>
<dt> <b>-nocount</b></dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 2.0)  Suppress feature count printing.</dd>
<dt> <b>-noextent</b></dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 2.0)  Suppress spatial extent printing.</dd>
<dt> <b>\-\-formats</b>:</dt><dd> List the format drivers that are
enabled.</dd>
<dt> <b>-wkt_format</b> <em>WKT1/WKT2/...</em></dt><dd> (GDAL >= 3.0) WKT format
used to display the SRS. Currently supported values are: WKT1,
WKT2 (latest WKT version, currently WKT2_2018), WKT2_2015, WKT2_2018 </dd>
<dt> <i>datasource_name</i>:</dt><dd> The data source to open.  May be a filename,
directory or other virtual name.  See the <a href="ogr_formats.html">OGR Vector
Formats</a> list for supported datasources.</dd>
<dt> <i>layer</i>:</dt><dd> One or more layer names may be reported.</dd>
</dl>

If no layer names are passed then ogrinfo will report a list of available
layers (and their layer wide geometry type).  If layer name(s) are given then
their extents, coordinate system, feature count, geometry type, schema and
all features matching query parameters will be reported to the terminal.
If no query parameters are provided, all features are reported.

Geometries are reported in OGC WKT format.

\section ogrinfo_example EXAMPLE

Example reporting all layers in an NTF file:
\verbatim
% ogrinfo wrk/SHETLAND_ISLANDS.NTF

\section ogr2ogr_description DESCRIPTION

This program can be used to convert simple features data between file formats
performing various operations during the process such as spatial or attribute
selections, reducing the set of attributes, setting the output coordinate
system or even reprojecting the features during translation.

<dl>
<dt><b> -f</b><em> format_name</em>:</dt><dd> output file format name, some possible values are:
  \verbatim
     -f "ESRI Shapefile"
     -f "TIGER"
     -f "MapInfo File"
     -f "GML"
     -f "PostgreSQL"
  \endverbatim
Starting with
GDAL 2.3, if not specified, the format is guessed from the extension (previously
was ESRI Shapefile). 
  </dd>
<dt><b>-append</b>:</dt><dd> Append to existing layer instead of creating
new</dd>
<dt><b>-overwrite</b>:</dt><dd> Delete the output layer and recreate it empty</dd>
<dt>  <b>-update</b>:</dt><dd> Open existing output datasource in update mode rather than trying to create a new one</dd>
<dt> <b>-select</b><em> field_list</em>:</dt><dd> Comma-delimited list of
fields from input layer to copy to the new layer. A field is skipped if
mentioned previously in the list even if the input layer has duplicate field
names.  (Defaults to all; any field is skipped if a subsequent field with
same name is found.) Starting with OGR 1.11, geometry fields can also be specified
in the list.

Note this setting cannot be used together with -append. To control the selection
of fields when appending to a layer, use -fieldmap or -sql.</dd>
<dt> <b>-progress</b>:</dt><dd> (starting with GDAL 1.7.0) Display progress on terminal. Only works if input layers have the "fast feature count" capability.</dd>
<dt> <b>-sql</b> <em>sql_statement</em>:</dt><dd> SQL statement to execute.
The resulting table/layer will be saved to the output. Starting with GDAL 2.1, the \@filename syntax
can be used to indicate that the content is in the pointed filename.</dd>
<dt> <b>-dialect</b> <em>dialect</em>:</dt><dd> SQL dialect.  In some cases can be used to use (unoptimized) OGR SQL instead of the native SQL of an RDBMS by passing OGRSQL.
Starting with GDAL 1.10, the "SQLITE" dialect can also be used with any datasource.</dd>
<dt> <b>-where</b><em> restricted_where</em>:</dt><dd> Attribute query (like SQL WHERE).
Starting with GDAL 2.1, the \@filename syntax can be used to indicate that the content is in the pointed filename.</dd>
<dt> <b>-skipfailures</b>:</dt><dd>Continue after a failure, skipping the failed feature.</dd>
<dt> <b>-spat</b><em> xmin ymin xmax ymax</em>:</dt><dd> spatial query extents, in the
SRS of the source layer(s) (or the one specified with -spat_srs). Only features
whose geometry intersects the extents will be selected. The geometries will not be clipped unless -clipsrc is specified</dd>
<dt> <b>-spat_srs</b><em> srs_def</em>:</dt><dd> (OGR &gt;= 2.0) Override spatial filter SRS.</dd>
<dt> <b>-geomfield</b> <i>field</i>:</dt><dd> (OGR &gt;= 1.11) Name of the geometry field
on which the spatial filter operates on.</dd>
<dt> <b>-dsco</b> <em>NAME=VALUE</em>:</dt><dd> Dataset creation option (format specific)</dd>
<dt> <b>-lco</b><em>  NAME=VALUE</em>:</dt><dd> Layer creation option (format specific)</dd>
<dt> <b>-nln</b><em> name</em>:</dt><dd> Assign an alternate name to the new layer</dd>
<dt> <b>-nlt</b><em> type</em>:</dt><dd> Define the geometry type for
the created layer. One of NONE, GEOMETRY, POINT, LINESTRING, POLYGON,
GEOMETRYCOLLECTION, MULTIPOINT, MULTIPOLYGON or MULTILINESTRING. And
CIRCULARSTRING, COMPOUNDCURVE, CURVEPOLYGON, MULTICURVE and
MULTISURFACE for GDAL 2.0 non-linear geometry types. Add "Z", "M", or
"ZM" to the name to get coordinates with elevation, measure, or
elevation and measure. Starting with GDAL 1.10, PROMOTE_TO_MULTI can
be used to automatically promote layers that mix polygon or
multipolygons to multipolygons, and layers that mix linestrings or
multilinestrings to multilinestrings. Can be useful when converting
shapefiles to PostGIS and other target drivers that implement strict
checks for geometry types. Starting with GDAL 2.0, CONVERT_TO_LINEAR
can be used to to convert non-linear geometries types into linear
geometries by approximating them, and CONVERT_TO_CURVE to promote a
non-linear type to its generalized curve type (POLYGON to CURVEPOLYGON,
MULTIPOLYGON to MULTISURFACE, LINESTRING to COMPOUNDCURVE, MULTILINESTRING to
MULTICURVE). Starting with 2.1 the type can be
defined as measured ("25D" remains as an alias for single "Z").
Some forced geometry conversions may result in invalid geometries, for example
when forcing conversion of multi-part multipolygons with -nlt POLYGON, the
resulting polygon will break the Simple Features rules.
</dd>
<dt> <b>-dim</b><em> val</em>:</dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 1.10) Force
the coordinate dimension to val (valid values are XY, XYZ, XYM, and
XYZM - for backwards compatibility 2 is an alias for XY and 3 is an
alias for XYZ). This affects both the layer geometry type, and feature
geometries. Starting with GDAL 1.11, the value can be set to
"layer_dim" to instruct feature geometries to be promoted to the
coordinate dimension declared by the layer. Support for M was added in
GDAL 2.1</dd>
<dt> <b>-a_srs</b><em> srs_def</em>:</dt><dd> Assign an output SRS</dd>
<dt> <b>-t_srs</b><em> srs_def</em>:</dt><dd> Reproject/transform to this SRS on output</dd>
<dt> <b>-s_srs</b><em> srs_def</em>:</dt><dd> Override source SRS</dd>
<dt> <b>-ct</b> <em>string</em>:</dt><dd> (GDAL &gt;= 3.0)
A PROJ string (single step operation or multiple step string
starting with +proj=pipeline), a WKT2 string describing a CoordinateOperation,
or a urn:ogc:def:coordinateOperation:EPSG::XXXX URN overriding the default
transformation from the source to the target CRS. It must take into account the
axis order of the source and target CRS.</dd>
<dt> <b>-preserve_fid</b>:</dt><dd>Use the FID of the source features instead of
letting the output driver to automatically assign a new one (when it needs to
assign a FID. Some formats, like GeoJSON, have optional FID)
Note: starting with GDAL 2.0, if not in append mode, this behaviour becomes the default if the output driver
has a FID layer creation option. In which case the name of the source FID column will
be used and source feature IDs will be attempted to be preserved. This behaviour
can be disabled by setting -unsetFid</dd>
<dt> <b>-fid</b> <i>fid</i>:</dt><dd> If provided, only the feature with this feature
id will be reported.  Operates exclusive of the spatial or attribute
queries.  Note: if you want to select several features based on their feature id, you can
also use the fact the 'fid' is a special field recognized by OGR SQL. So, '-where "fid in (1,3,5)"'
would select features 1, 3 and 5.</dd>
<dt> <b>-limit</b> <i>nb_features</i>:</dt><dd> (starting with GDAL 2.2): to
limit the number of features, per layer.</dd>
</dl>

Srs_def can be a full WKT definition (hard to escape properly), or a well
known definition (i.e. EPSG:4326) or a file with a WKT definition.

Advanced options :

<dl>
<dt> <b>-oo</b> <em>NAME=VALUE</em>:</dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 2.0) Input dataset open option (format specific)</dd>
<dt> <b>-doo</b> <em>NAME=VALUE</em>:</dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 2.0) Destination dataset open option (format specific), only valid in -update mode</dd>
<dt> <b>-gt</b> <em>n</em>:</dt><dd> group <em>n</em> features per transaction (default 20000 in OGR 1.11, 200 in previous releases). Increase the value
for better performance when writing into DBMS drivers that have transaction support. Starting with GDAL 2.0,
n can be set to unlimited to load the data into a single transaction.</dd>
<dt> <b>-ds_transaction</b>:</dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 2.0) Force the use of
a dataset level transaction (for drivers that support such mechanism),
especially for drivers such as FileGDB that only support dataset level transaction
in emulation mode.</dd>
<dt> <b>-clipsrc</b><em> [xmin ymin xmax ymax]|WKT|datasource|spat_extent</em>:
</dt><dd> (starting with GDAL 1.7.0) clip geometries to the specified bounding
box (expressed in source SRS), WKT geometry (POLYGON or MULTIPOLYGON), from a
datasource or to the spatial extent of the <b>-spat</b> option if you use the
<em>spat_extent</em> keyword. When specifying a datasource, you will generally

target layer definition in which the n(th) field of the source layer must be copied. Index count starts at
zero. To omit a field, specify a value of -1. There must be exactly as many values in the list as the count
of the fields in the source layer.  We can use the 'identity' setting to specify that the fields should be
transferred by using the same order.  This setting should be used along with the -append setting.</dd>
<dt> <b>-addfields</b>:</dt><dd>(starting with GDAL 1.11) This is a specialized version of

the new fields found in source layers. This option is useful when merging files that have non-strictly
identical structures.
This might not work for output formats that don't support adding fields to existing non-empty layers.

\section ogr2ogr_performance PERFORMANCE HINTS

When writing into transactional DBMS (SQLite/PostgreSQL,MySQL, etc...),
it might be beneficial to increase the number
of INSERT statements executed between BEGIN TRANSACTION and COMMIT TRANSACTION statements.
This number is specified with the -gt option. For example, for SQLite, explicitly defining
<b>-gt 65536</b> ensures optimal performance while populating some table containing many 
hundreds of thousands or millions of rows. However, note that -skipfailures overrides -gt 
and sets the size of transactions to 1.

For PostgreSQL, the PG_USE_COPY config option can be set to YES for a significant insertion
performance boost. See the PG driver documentation page.

More generally, consult the documentation page of the input and output drivers for performance hints.

\section ogr2ogr_api C API

Starting with GDAL 2.1, this utility is also callable from C with GDALVectorTranslate().

\section ogr2ogr_example EXAMPLE

Example appending to an existing layer (both flags need to be used):

\verbatim
% ogr2ogr -update -append -f PostgreSQL PG:dbname=warmerda abc.tab
\endverbatim

Example reprojecting from ETRS_1989_LAEA_52N_10E to EPSG:4326 and clipping to a bounding box

\verbatim
% ogr2ogr -wrapdateline -t_srs EPSG:4326 -clipdst -5 40 15 55 france_4326.shp europe_laea.shp
\endverbatim

Example for using the -fieldmap setting. The first field of the source layer is used to
fill the third field (index 2 = third field) of the target layer, the second field of the
source layer is ignored, the third field of the source layer used to fill the fifth field
of the target layer.

\verbatim
% ogr2ogr -append -fieldmap 2,-1,4 dst.shp src.shp
\endverbatim

More examples are given in the individual format pages.

Creates a tileindex.

\section ogrtindex_synopsis SYNOPSIS

\htmlonly
Usage:
\endhtmlonly

\verbatim
ogrtindex [-lnum n]... [-lname name]... [-f output_format]
          [-write_absolute_path] [-skip_different_projection]
          [-t_srs target_srs]

\endverbatim

\section ogrtindex_description DESCRIPTION

The ogrtindex program can be used to create a tileindex - a file containing
a list of the identities of a bunch of other files along with there spatial
extents.  This is primarily intended to be used with
<a href="http://mapserver.org/">MapServer</a> for tiled access
to layers using the OGR connection type.

<dl>
<dt><b>-lnum</b> <em>n</em>:</dt><dd> Add layer number 'n' from each source
        file in the tile index.</dd>
<dt><b>-lname</b> <em>name</em>:</dt><dd> Add the layer named 'name' from each source file
        in the tile index.</dd>
<dt><b>-f</b> <em>output_format</em>:</dt><dd> Select an output format name.  The default
        is to create a shapefile.</dd>
<dt><b>-tileindex</b> <em>field_name</em>:</dt><dd> The name to use for the dataset name.
        Defaults to LOCATION.</dd>
<dt><b>-write_absolute_path</b>:</dt><dd> Filenames are written with absolute paths</dd>
<dt><b>-skip_different_projection</b>:</dt><dd> Only layers with same projection ref
        as layers already inserted in the tileindex will be inserted.</dd>
<dt><b>-t_srs</b> target_srs:</dt><dd> (GDAL &gt;= 2.2)
<p>Extent of input files will be transformed to the desired target
coordinate reference system. Using this option generates files that are not
compatible with MapServer &lt; 7.2. Default creates simple rectangular polygons
in the same coordinate reference system as the input vector layers.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>-src_srs_name</b> field_name:</dt><dd> (GDAL &gt;= 2.2)
<p>The name of the field to store the SRS of each tile. This field name can be
used as the value of the TILESRS keyword in MapServer &gt;= 7.2.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>-src_srs_format</b> type:</dt><dd> (GDAL &gt;= 2.2)
<p>The format in which the SRS of each tile must be written.
Types can be AUTO, WKT, EPSG, PROJ.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>-accept_different_schemas</b>:</dt><dd> By default ogrtindex checks that all
        layers inserted into the index have the same attribute schemas. If you specify
        this option, this test will be disabled. Be aware that resulting index may be
        incompatible with MapServer!</dd>
</dl>

If no -lnum or -lname arguments are given it is assumed that
all layers in source datasets should be added to the tile index
as independent records.

If the tile index already exists it will be appended to, otherwise it will
be created.

\section ogrtindex_example EXAMPLE

This example would create a shapefile (tindex.shp) containing a tile index
of the BL2000_LINK layers in all the NTF files in the wrk directory:
\verbatim
% ogrtindex tindex.shp wrk/*.NTF
\endverbatim
