GeoOperations shapefile loading issue

frankpacker_AoD — Wed, 24 Nov 2021 04:28:51 GMT

Hi All,

Trying to load a Shapefile into Qlik with GeoOperations and hitting an error:

The following error occurred:

Connector reply error: grpc::StatusCode::INVALID_ARGUMENT: 'GEOOPS-402: Failed to create dataset covenants: Could not parse dataset WKT CRS. Please set manually.'

I can't find anything much in the documentation to help with this error.

The operation I'm executing is just the most basic load:

Shape:
Load * Extension GeoOperations.ScriptEval('
load() DATASOURCE covenants GEOFILE type="shape",
url="https://dl.dropbox.com/s/pbllxss2u0cyvq8/QEII_OSCovenants_20210930.zip")';

The shapefile being loaded is accessible via the link. I've also attached the shapefile to this post.

Can anyone assist or point me in the direction of the documentation that'll help?

Thanks!

Bit of a bump.

@Patric_Nordstrom apologies for the direct tag, but this stuff appears to be your area of expertise. Perhaps you can point me in the right direction?

from the QEII_OSCovenants_20210930.prj file it looks like the reference system is NZGD_2000_New_Zealand_Transverse_Mercator, https://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/nzgd2000-new-zealand-transverse-mercator-2000/

Try adding the crs like this

Load * Extension GeoOperations.ScriptEval('
load() DATASOURCE covenants GEOFILE type="shape", crs="EPSG:2193",
url="https://dl.dropbox.com/s/pbllxss2u0cyvq8/QEII_OSCovenants_20210930.zip")';

Hello everyone!

I was trying to load a shape file that I use on a CM environment, into Qlik Sense SaaS. However, I have the file on OneDrive. I did something similar to Dropbox, but it did not work well. Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks!
