Hi Frank, hi all,

The SDTS code is in GRASS 4.2.1. Find it there...

Best regards

Rich,

Sol passed away this spring. I skimmed the GRASS 5.0beta code tree I have,
and couldn't find the SDTS code either. Does anyone know where it is?

I have written some code for SDTS support that I might be willing to integrate
into GRASS; however, I am not keen on trying to support existing code unless
it is pretty easy to understand.

Some info on my code can be found at:

  http://gdal.velocet.ca/projects/sdts/index.html

My underlying ISO 8211 library (the encoding format for SDTS) can be found at:

Markus,

is the SDTS code for vector, raster, or both?
