Summary
This chapter has described several utility programs that are distributed with MapServer, shapelib, and GDAL/OGR. You should now be able to explore the contents of your spatial data sets, create and populate shapefiles, and modify shapefile contents. The next chapter is a reference to MapServer. All the mapfile keywords and their possible values, substitution strings, and CGI form variables will be described briefly, but comprehensively.
