Sorry for the cross-posting. I was wondering if anyone has a unix (preferably) or windows program that can spider a directory, recursively searching for raster and vector data, and create bounding box polygons for each raster/vector it finds, with attributes indicating the path-to-file. Thanks!

I suppose you could put something together with `find + xargs`, and then
try gdalinfo and ogrinfo against everything you find, then collect and
collate the results.
