> Convert geospatial vector data between file formats.

Convert a Shapefile into a GeoPackage:

ogr2ogr -f GPKG {path/to/output}.gpkg {path/to/input}.shp

Reduce a GeoJSON to features matching a condition:

ogr2ogr -where '{myProperty > 42}' -f {GeoJSON} {path/to/output.geojson} {path/to/input.geojson}

Change coordinate reference system of a GeoPackage from `EPSG:4326` to `EPSG:3857`:

ogr2ogr -s_srs {EPSG:4326} -t_srs {EPSG:3857} -f GPKG {path/to/output}.gpkg {path/to/input}.gpkg

Convert a CSV file into a GeoPackage, specifying the names of the coordinate columns and assigning a coordinate reference system:

ogr2ogr -f GPKG {path/to/output}.gpkg {path/to/input}.csv -oo X_POSSIBLE_NAMES={longitude} -oo Y_POSSIBLE_NAMES={latitude} -a_srs {EPSG:4326}

Load a GeoPackage into a PostGIS database:

ogr2ogr -f PostgreSQL PG:dbname="{database_name}" {path/to/input}.gpkg

Clip layers of a GeoPackage file to the given bounding box:

ogr2ogr -spat {min_x} {min_y} {max_x} {max_y} -f GPKG {path/to/output}.gpkg {path/to/input}.gpkg
