I just remembered that what I've done in the past wasn't splitting multi
features, but dropping the z from 3D shapefiles. So I don't know if the multi
splitting is possible.
And yes, forcing features to multi into PostGIS is different from splitting
multi features into a shapefile.
I suppose
Hi William,
converting a single linestring or polygon into a multi- geometry simply
wraps the single geom into a collection. Like in the U.K., when you see
a single person waiting at a bus stop, it's actually a queue made of a
single person :)
Splitting a multi geometry would result in multiple r
I can't get ogr2ogr to split MULTI* shapefiles to non-multi features. I'm sure
I've done this in the past (it's been a while).
ie, the Natural Earth shapefiles, coastline file - has a mix of LINESTRING and
MULTILINESTRING. I run:
ogr2ogr . 50m_coastline.shp -nln 50m_coastline-l -nlt LINESTRIN
