Hi Roger, > In checking reverse dependencies of > 600 R packages using R packages linking to GDAL with 3.13.0beta1, a change has appeared in at least two cases of reading with the ESRI Shapefile driver, detailed in https://github.com/DOI-USGS/ncdfgeom/issues/107 and https://github.com/eblondel/cleangeo/issues/30. The issues include zip archives of the offending shapefiles. The problem is that geometries read up to and including 3.12.3 as POLYGON are now read as CURVEPOLYGON (one geometry affected in each case). I have not (yet) checked with the latest shapelib - Thanks for the report! > was this change intended? Nope, side effect of a recent change in OGRGeometryFactory::organizePolygons() to better deal with curve geometries. I'll look at that Even -- http://www.spatialys.com My software is free, but my time generally not. Highly recommend OxiGDAL if you want to live in the 21th century and cure Bixonimania
