[Gvsig_english] short poll: lyr import tool

[Francisco José Peñarrubia]

Hi All.

Maybe you can try this tool:

http://wald.intevation.org/projects/arcmap2sld/

(The tools is open source,  and should be useful, but I didn't try it 
before).

SLD stands for Styled Layer Descriptor. Is an OGC especification, and is 
(or should be) supported in many WMS servers, desktop GIS applications, 
etc. gvSIG can export and import SLD's, although some bugs may appear...

Best regards.
