The command "ogrinfo" is a utility in the GDAL (Geospatial Data Abstraction Library) package used for accessing geospatial data. Here is a breakdown of the command and its parameters:
- "ogrinfo": The name of the command itself.
- "-so": This option stands for "summary only" and tells ogrinfo to display only summary information about the input data source.
- "-al": This option stands for "all layers" and tells ogrinfo to display information about all the layers within the input data source.
- "${path-to-input-gpkg}": This is a placeholder indicating that you need to provide the actual file path to the input Geopackage file.
When you execute this command, it will read the specified Geopackage file and display a summary of its contents, including information about all the layers present in the file.
Note: Make sure you have GDAL installed and added to your system's PATH before using this command.
