[postgis-users] TIGER/Line Shapefiles released

[Paragon Corporation]

As a side note to what you were saying in the .sh file it would be really
nice if the shp2pgsql dealt with standalone dbf files too.  I mean the logic
is all there so doesn't seem like it would be that hard to put in a switch
for that.

For the dbfs I was using Ogr2Ogr which works well except it adds a useless
geometry field.

Alright, since it's apparently kind of popular, I went ahead and put the
script up here:

http://snowman.net/tiger/

I also included a README.txt that is essentially what I wrote up to the
first person who asked me for the script.  Please let me know if you improve
upon it or find problems with it.

	Thanks,
