Hi, Mike —
<div>I’m glad you got what you need from the KML output. The lat/lon values for the contour line vertices are buried in the shape file, but you have to use ‘shpdump’ (a stand-alone utility that is built along with the shapfile library) to print them out. </div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">

hi Jennifer -- I have a similar problem... I can generate and display the shp file and the 'q shp' works as advertised, but what I really need are the actually lat(Y)/lon(X) of the vertices not just the bounds, e.g.,<br>
<br>
37: ArcM parts=1 vertices=553 XBounds=0:360 YBounds=41.4058:74.4189 ZBounds=0:0 MBounds=5700:5700
<br>
<br>
tells me there are 553 vertices and that the lon bound is 0-360 and lat bound is 41.4-74.4. do I have to use some GIS s/w to get the lat/lons? or is there a way to mod grads to output?<br>
<br>
thanks! best /R Mike<br>

<blockquote type="cite">Thanks for your reply. Exactly. I'd like get a *.shp file of the 0 contour's. It should be get the lat/lon of the contour's position first, and then using Arcgis software to generate the .shp file.
