Hello,

I have shapefiles of Indian subcontinent (i.e., .india_map.m.swp, ind_state_2000.apr, ind_state_2000.dbf, ind_state_2000.prj, ind_state_2000.sbn, ind_state_2000.sbx, ind_state_2000.shx, ind_state_2000.wmf). I don't even know what these file formats are, but inorder to draw the Indian subcontinent with exact boundary information, how I can use these files in IDL? Also, I want to include this in lat-lon coordinate box. I know how to use these shapefiles in MATLAB, but I don't have any clue in IDL.

Any help in this regard will be highly appreciable!!!

Thanks in advance,
Madhavan
