NAME
shpdump - dump an ESRI shapefile as textSYNOPSIS
shpdump [-validate] fileDESCRIPTION
Prints the contents of the shapefile file to standard output in textual format. Shapefiles actually consist of two files with the same basename and extensions .shp and .shx (or .SHP and .SHX) containing the shape data and shape index respectively. The files to open are determined by first stripping any filename extension from file and attempting to open the files file.shp or file.SHP, and file.shx or file.SHX for the respective data and index files.Output consists of a header giving number and type of shapes in the file and the bounds for the minimum and maximum X, Y, Z, and M values appearing in the shapes. The header is followed by the geometric data for each shape in the file. All shapes in the file should be of the same type, except that NullShape typed shapes may be intermixed with any other type. The header has the form
Shapefile Type: type # of Shapes: count
File Bounds: (minX,minY,minZ,minM)
to (maxX,maxY,maxZ,maxM)
Next for each shape in the file a header giving it's shape_index, it's type type, number of vertices nVertices, number of parts nParts, and bounding box is given, followed by the vertex data of each part.
Shape: shape_index (type) nVertices=nVertices, nParts=nParts
Bounds: (minX,minY,minZ,minM)
to (maxX,maxY,maxZ,maxM)
vertices of the first part
+ vertices of the second part...
+ vertices of the last part

SHAPE TYPES
Each type of shape except MultiPatch typed shapes comes in three flavours: The normal unsuffixed type, where points lie in X/Y-space; a type with suffix M where points lie in X/Y-space and additionally have a measure value in M-space; and finally a type with suffix Z where points lie in X/Y/Z-space and also have a measure value in M-space.- NullShape
- A shape without data. Shapes of this type may be intermixed with other shapes and are sometimes used to represented deleted or missing geometric data for a shape.
- Point or PointZ or PointM
- A single point.
- Arc or ArcZ or ArcM
- Piecewise linear paths. Shapes of this type may consist of multiple parts which may or may not intersect and/or connect. Arcs are called PolyLines in the shapefile specification.
- Polygon or PolygonZ or PolygonM
- Polygon shapes consist of one or more parts, called rings, that each define a closed path. Rings must contain at least four vertices with the first and last vertices being equal, and must not self-intersect. For shapes of type Polygon, the rings define a polygon with optional holes by giving the vertices of inner rings a counterclockwise orientation and the vertices of outer rings a clockwise orientation. Intersection and orientation is always computed in X/Y-space and never in X/Y/M-space.
- MultiPoint or MultiPointZ or MultiPointM
- A set of points.
- MultiPatch
- A MultiPatch represents one or more surfaces in X/Y/Z-space, and consists of a number of parts called it's surface patches. Each surface patch describes a either a surface or a hole in another surface, depending on the type of the patch. Patches may share a common boundary but may not otherwise intersect. The type of a patch may be one of
-
- TriangleStrip
- A set of connected triangles. The first three points define the first triangle and every following point defines a new triangle using the new point and the two previous points.
- TriangleFan
- A set of connected triangles. The first three points define the first triangle and every following point defines a new triangle using the previous point, the current point, and the first point, thus forming a fan of triangles around the first point.
- OuterRing
- The outer ring of a sequence of rings defining a polygon with holes. All following parts of type InnerRing are taken to be the holes of the polygon. The sequence of rings ends with the first non-InnerRing typed part or the part of the shape, whichever comes first.
- InnerRing
- An inner ring in a sequence of rings defining a polygon with holes. This type of part may only follow an OuterRing or other InnerRing typed parts.
- FirstRing
- The first in a sequence of rings defining a polygon of unspecified type. The following parts of type Ring defines the other rings in the polygon. This type of part is used when the innerness or outerness of a polygon isn't known or applicable. The sequence of rings defining the polygon ends with the first non-Ring typed part or the last part of the shape, whichever comes first.
- Ring
- A ring in a sequence of rings defining a polygon of unspecified type. It may only follow a FirstRing or other Ring typed parts.
- UknownPartType
- This type is returned for parts whose type isn't recognised.
-
- UnknownShapeType
- This type is returned for shapes whose type isn't recognised.
OPTIONS
- -validate
- Performs validation on the orientation of inner and outer rings in Polygon, PolygonZ, and PolygonM objects. According to the shapefile specification outer rings should be given a clockwise orientation, and inner rings that define holes a counterclockwise orientation. If some rings of a shape are oriented the wrong way around then the following message is output after dumping that shape:
count rings wound in the wrong direction.
In addition the total number of shapes with problem rings is output after the last shape has been dumped:
count object has invalid ring orderings.
EXIT STATUS
- 0
- Successful program execution.
- 1
- No shapefile file was given or it couldn't be opened.

The -validate option supports only one outer ring in a polygonal shape and assumes that the first ring in a shape is the outer ring. It doesn't support polygons inside MultiPatch shapes. The X and Y coordinates of a point are printed to three decimal places only.SEE ALSO
