When I use v.in.tig.lndmk
I am having no luck in extracting vector files from the
TIGER/Line files by specifying the CFCC Code. Specifying
strings to match landmark names works fine. I'm using the
Spring 93 release of 4.1 Update level 3. Any clues?By the way I run v.in.tig.lndmk interactively.
I haven't really dinked with v.in.tig.lndmk, but for vectors you can effectively
use a combination of m.in.stf1.tape and v.in.tig.basic . Specify the CFCC like
so:
m.in.stf1.tape 56=A1 < original_type1_file > new_type1_file
and then
v.in.tig.basic t1=new_type1_file t2=orig_type2_file out=new_vectorfile
and you will have your desired vector layer.
Later today or tomorrow I will be releasing a set of three scripts for
extracting TIGER/Line data along with various attributes. Watch this list for
further info (I'm finishing the man pages).
Cheers,
