gdal vector edit can be used to edit metadata of a vector
dataset: its CRS, the layer geometry type, dataset and layer metadata.
edit can also be used as a step of gdal vector
pipeline.
Features are not modified.
- --co
<NAME>=<VALUE>
- Many formats have one or more optional dataset creation options that can
be used to control particulars about the file created. For instance, the
GeoPackage driver supports creation options to control the version.
May be repeated.
The dataset creation options available vary by format driver,
and some simple formats have no creation options at all. A list of
options supported for a format can be listed with the --formats
command line option but the documentation for the format is the
definitive source of information on driver creation options. See
Vector drivers format specific documentation for legal creation
options for each format.
Note that dataset creation options are different from layer
creation options.
- --overwrite
- Allow program to overwrite existing target file or dataset. Otherwise, by
default, gdal errors out if the target file or dataset already
exists.
- --active-layer
<ACTIVE-LAYER>
- Set the active layer. When it is specified, only the layer specified by
its name will be subject to the processing. Other layers will be not
modified. If this option is not specified, all layers will be subject to
the processing.
- --geometry-type
<GEOMETRY-TYPE>
- Change the layer geometry type to be one of GEOMETRY, POINT,
LINESTRING, POLYGON, MULTIPOINT,
MULTILINESTRING, MULTIPOLYGON, GEOMETRYCOLLECTION,
CURVE, CIRCULARSTRING, COMPOUNDCURVE, SURFACE,
CURVEPOLYGON, MULTICURVE, MULTISURFACE,
POLYHEDRALSURFACE or TIN. Z, M or ZM
suffixes can be appended to the above values to indicate the
dimensionality. Note that feature geometries themselves are not modified.
Thus this option can be used to fix an inappropriate geometry type at the
layer level.
- --crs
<CRS>
- Override CRS, without reprojecting.
The coordinate reference systems that can be passed are
anything supported by the OGRSpatialReference::SetFromUserInput()
call, which includes EPSG Projected, Geographic or Compound CRS (i.e.
EPSG:4296), a well known text (WKT) CRS definition, PROJ.4 declarations,
or the name of a .prj file containing a WKT CRS definition.
null or none can be specified to unset an
existing CRS.
- --if
<format>
- Format/driver name to be attempted to open the input file(s). It is
generally not necessary to specify it, but it can be used to skip
automatic driver detection, when it fails to select the appropriate
driver. This option can be repeated several times to specify several
candidate drivers. Note that it does not force those drivers to open the
dataset. In particular, some drivers have requirements on file extensions.
May be repeated.
This program supports serializing the command line as a JSON file
using the GDALG output format. The resulting file can then be opened
as a vector dataset using the GDALG: GDAL Streamed Algorithm driver,
and apply the specified pipeline in a on-the-fly / streamed way.
$ gdal vector edit --crs=EPSG:4326 --geometry-type=POLYGONZM in.gpkg out.gpkg --overwrite
