write_shapefile

write_shapefile(filename)

This predicate writes a standard G.I.S. "shape-file" (*.SHP), converting

the Global Database of G.I.S. information (within the interpreter) to a standard "*.SHP"-format shape-file, which can be accessed by other G.I.S. software.

This predicate needs a new implementation using hard disk storage, rather than RAM-memory; it is ommitted in the very first version of G.I.S. Prolog (version 1.00), released in February 2005.
