       The recommended tool for geographical format conversions is called &quot;ogr2ogr&quot;. This should be available for most Linux distros (&quot;sudo apt-get install gdal-bin&quot;). For Windows, go to http://fwtools.maptools.org/ and download &quot;FWTools&quot;, install it and open up the FWTools command shell. During the format conversion we also want to ensure that the output has the correct coordinate projection (called EPSG:4326 with geographic longitude and latitude). For a more detailed reference of geographic coordinates, please refer to this <ulink url="http://www.epsg-registry.org/";>site</ulink>.  If you have already reprojected the geographic data to the geographic latitude/longitude (EPSG:4326) system, there is no need to explicitly define the output coordinate system, assuming that <command>ogr2ogr</command> can determine the input spatial reference system. You can determine the spatial reference system by executing the following command.</para>
