I also get data from Navteq. I don't bother with SIF, I think you might need Navteq software to deal with that, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's Windows only. I get my data from them in *.shp files, and use shp2pgsql to convert them to *.sql files that I can import into postgresql/postgis. Navteq unfortunately doesn't make it very obvious that their data is even available in SHP format. If you have access to https://navteq.subscribenet.com/, what you want are the downloads labeled NAVSTREETS ArcView. That gives you an ISO. Loopback mount it, and one of the files it contains (most of the bits) should be a *.tar.gz file. And if you gunzip and untar it, you'll find a bunch of sets of files, one set for each table, and in each set should be a *.shp file. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Data-format-problem---GDFOUT-and-SIFP-tp14756434p14811690.html Sent from the Mapserver - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
