Re: Dynamic runtime modeling: which is the best choice?

Unfortunately I deal with very different shapefiles and I create models
on the fly with ogrinspect tool.
I cannot know the shapefile structure, before user upload: for this
reason a table per shape is IMHO mandatory (as well as a clearer approach).
