$ ogrinfo ${path-to-input-gpkg}

The command "ogrinfo" is a command-line tool for interacting with geospatial data. It is used to obtain information about a given dataset.

In the command "ogrinfo ${path-to-input-gpkg}", we are using "ogrinfo" to get information about a geopackage file (a file format for storing geospatial data).

The "${path-to-input-gpkg}" represents the path to the input geopackage file. You need to replace "${path-to-input-gpkg}" with the actual file path on your system. For example, if the geopackage file is located at "/home/user/data.gpkg", the command would be:

ogrinfo /home/user/data.gpkg

Once executed, the command will provide various information about the geopackage file, including its spatial reference system, geometry types, attribute fields, and other metadata.
