I run a non profit called http://www.wikispeedia.org , a collection of speed limit sign locations. We are transcribing UK shapefiles from the ordancesurvey Meridian 2 database into our wikispeedia.org database. Specifically, we are trying to convert what looks like UTM into lat,lon. Q: Will visualizer help us? We are not novices, since I already converted 27 million signs from the USA census.gov Tiger shapefiles using shapelib. Could you offer any suggestions? or tools we might use. We requested arcGis Viewer but haven't received it yet. Here is a snippet from their files Warmest Regards, Jim Pruett -----------from Meridian2\data\motorway_ polylines.dbf-------------- Field 0: Type=N/Integer, Title=`CODE', Width=9, Decimals=0 Field 1: Type=C/String, Title=`OSODR', Width=13, Decimals=0 Field 2: Type=C/String, Title=`NUMBER', Width=8, Decimals=0 Field 3: Type=C/String, Title=`ROAD_NAME', Width=70, Decimals=0 Field 4: Type=N/Double, Title=`METRES', Width=11, Decimals=0 Field 5: Type=C/String, Title=`INDICATOR', Width=1, Decimals=0 Field 6: Type=F/Double, Title=`SHAPE_Leng', Width=19, Decimals=11 3000 ,O16ATA57EK1AW,M6 , ,340 , ,3.39101500936e+002 , --------from Meridian .shp file------------------------------------------------------ # 339134.000, 560000.000 339317.000, 559933.000 339461.000, 559925.000 # --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
