DESCRIPTION
The ogrinfo program lists various information about an OGR supported
data source to stdout (the terminal).
-ro:
Open the data source in read-only mode.
-al:
List all features of all layers (used instead of having to give
layer names as arguments).
-rl:
(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).
-so:
Summary Only: suppress listing of features, show only the summary
information like projection, schema, feature count and extents.
-q:
Quiet verbose reporting of various information, including
coordinate system, layer schema, extents, and feature count.
-where restricted_where:
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.
-sql statement:
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.
-dialect dialect:
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.
-spat xmin ymin xmax ymax:
The area of interest. Only features within the rectangle will be
reported.
-geomfield field:
(OGR >= 1.11) Name of the geometry field on which the spatial
filter operates on.
-fid fid:
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.
-fields={YES/NO}:
(starting with GDAL 1.6.0) If set to NO, the feature dump will not
display field values. Default value is YES.
-geom={YES/NO/SUMMARY/WKT/ISO_WKT}:
(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)
-oo NAME=VALUE:
(starting with GDAL 2.0) Dataset open option (format specific)
-nomd
(starting with GDAL 2.0) Suppress metadata printing. Some datasets
may contain a lot of metadata strings.
-listmdd
(starting with GDAL 2.0) List all metadata domains available for
the dataset.
-mdd domain
(starting with GDAL 2.0) Report metadata for the specified domain.
'all' can be used to report metadata in all domains
-nocount
(starting with GDAL 2.0) Suppress feature count printing.
-noextent
(starting with GDAL 2.0) Suppress spatial extent printing.
--formats:
List the format drivers that are enabled.
datasource_name:
The data source to open. May be a filename, directory or other
virtual name. See the OGR Vector Formats list for supported
datasources.
layer:
One or more layer names may be reported.
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.
EXAMPLE
Example reporting all layers in an NTF file:
% ogrinfo wrk/SHETLAND_ISLANDS.NTF
INFO: Open of `wrk/SHETLAND_ISLANDS.NTF'
using driver `UK .NTF' successful.
1: BL2000_LINK (Line String)
2: BL2000_POLY (None)
3: BL2000_COLLECTIONS (None)
4: FEATURE_CLASSES (None)
Example using an attribute query is used to restrict the output of the
features in a layer:
% ogrinfo-ro -where 'GLOBAL_LINK_ID=185878' wrk/SHETLAND_ISLANDS.NTF BL2000_LINK
INFO: Open of `wrk/SHETLAND_ISLANDS.NTF'
using driver `UK .NTF' successful.
Layer name: BL2000_LINK
Geometry: Line String
Feature Count: 1
