I need to import Digital Chart of the World data into GRASS.
There doesn't seem to be a ready made way for doing it.
I have downloaded OGDI for Unix (www.las/ogdi). However I was not
able to compile the given Solaris sources into Linux and by the look of
it there will be needed quite a lot of work, first to compile the Libraries
and then to write an actual C program to import the data.
Perhaps I should try the Tcl/Tk OGDI version, but also this seems not easy
and time consuming and I do not want to learn yet another language.
Another possibility could be to learn the VPF inner workings, hack VPFVIEW
sources and write a VPF2GRASS C program.
All these possibilities are however time consuming and rather difficoult
Another possibility. easier but still time consuming, could be to obtain
raster images with VPFVIEW or VPF_IMP or Fusion and then import and process
these images into GRASS.
I shall be grateful for any help. Thank you
