[GRASSLIST:1515] Re: import vector

Thanks, I've done everything...
My data are in a Lambert II projection.
And I'm working in lat-long coordinates...
I didn't find the projection "Lambert II étendu", which is used in France.
Is there any way to make the translation from this projection to lat-long or
another one, supported by Grass ?
thanks for your ideas

Gaetan,

  In MapInfo, open the table you want to translate to GRASS. Then select
(from the menus) Table | Export. The dialog box asks for a name of the
exported table (with the .MIF extension) and the directory in which it
should be written.

  Also, these are DOS/Windows files, so they have a cr/lf at the end of each
line. Run the utility, dos2unix, on them to change the end of line character
to a lf (`\n').

  Now you can move your data (the *.mif/*.mid files) to the directory in
which you have your GRASS data and run v.in.mif. With a bit of luck, it will
work on your data.
