I'm sure the folks on #gdal could help pretty quick though, or maybe on the FWTools mailing list? Sorry Zac, no clue.

I'll look at other open source alternatives. I might even go for a centrally administered PostGIS setup. Cheers, Simon Thanks for the info Jason. I’ll look at other open source alternatives.

You could do it in a console app (C#) or Python (haven't personally tested this), or you could do it from within MapGuide using the PHP or Java APIs but that's a large install. I'm not sure what's possible with other open source applications; an email to the OSGeo Discuss mailing list might get you some responses. http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss No, I’m afraid that you’re stuck with learning a programming language if you want to do any of these operations via FDO.

Does any of this make it possible to do the kind of geometric operations I'm after in a batch file? I'm just trying to get some quick results without learning a programming language. Am I being a bit optimistic? Cheers, Simon Thanks Jason.

The FDO implementation of SQLite support supports all kinds of spatial intersection queries, though I don't think that this was initially intended. See this message: http://www.nabble.com/RE%3A-FDO-RFC-16---FDO-Provider-for-SQLite-p16578916.html Hi Simon,

I have a need to routinely produce a list of properties and their corresponding planning zones, and it needs to run at many different sites. I've ruled out PostGIS because I don't want to set it up at 20 different sites. The SpatiaLite documentation appears to indicate that it only supports geographic operators that are based on an object's minimum bounding rectangle (MBR), and not the actual object. To correctly determine a property's planning zone, I would need it to directly compare each property's object against each planning zone's object, all of which may be quite irregularly shaped. Does anyone know if these latest SQLite/FDO/OGR developments would expand the available geographic operators to enable these direct objects comparisons, or if there are any other suggestions for doing this.
