Re: Function shaperead for octave

[Alain Foehn]

Hey,
Thanks for the info, but the octPROJ is for cartographic projections 
transformations.
This is also linked with GIS but is completely different. I want to 
import points, lines or polygons into Octave from .shp files.
Unfortunately, I wouldn't know how to implement the function. However, I 
guess the link http://shapelib.maptools.org/ could of interest.
Thanks !
Alain
