Hi All, I have been opening and working with kml data in qgis for sometime and have had very few issues. Unfortunately I seem to have run into a problem with a file sent to from a colleague in the field. The kml in questions opens in GE no problem and even has a time feature whereby the start and end time is shown and the user can move the slider to see how and where the device was. Nice feature but I think it is introducing an error when attempting to open in QGIS. The kml is a track of a road and was collected using an android app called GPS essentials. The qgis error states *.kml is not a valid or recognized data source.
ogrinfo returns :~$ ogr2ogr -f 'ESRI Shapefile' output.shp Track-082212_83453.kml ERROR 4: No layers in KML file: Track-082212_83453.kml. FAILURE: Unable to open datasource `Track-082212_83453.kml' with the following drivers. When I open the kml in gedit I get an xml type structure. Am happy to share the offending file with anyone interested in lending a hand. Many thanks and kind regards, Wesley -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/KML-Error-when-opening-in-QGIS-tp4997246.html Sent from the Quantum GIS - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
