Well, it appears that simple direct downloading does not download the real shapefile. Taking care to actually get a shapefile, the result loads without problems.
ne_110m_populated_places.shp is a PointShape with 243 shapes (points). If you display it on a Form (#displayMorphic) you wonât see much (243 hardly visible dots).
I checked and my previous download method was completely wrong. Now switching from ZnEasy to ZnClient to download and it works nicely: | shpE legend urlRoot urlESRIFilePrefix urlESRIFileShp urlPath response fileRef | " Download Shapefile resources " urlRoot := ' https://github.com/nvkelso/natural-earth-vector/blob/master/110m_cultural/'. urlESRIFilePrefix := 'ne_110m_populated_places'. urlESRIFileShp := urlESRIFilePrefix , '.shp'. urlPath := urlRoot , urlESRIFilePrefix. #('.shx' '.dbf' '.shp' '.cpg' '.prj') do: [ : ext | ZnClient new url: (urlPath , ext) asZnUrl; queryAt: 'raw' put: 'true'; numberOfRetries: 2; enforceHttpSuccess: true; downloadTo: urlESRIFilePrefix , ext; get ]. " Load and display it in Morphic " shpE := ShapeEnsemble fromFile: urlESRIFileShp. " List data fields " shpE dataFields inspect. " List all shape records " shpE shapeRecords inspect. " Set the current attribute " shpE attribute: 'NAME'. legend := ColorLegend mapValuesToRandom: shpE valuesOfCurrentAttribute. shpE legend: legend. shpE displayMorphic.
With an application for vector graphics (Roassal?) that can read & display the vector data we would get much nicer maps...

Hi Hernan
I downloaded this shapefile directly via the browser. Indeed it wonât load, the type of shape file returned is
self longAt: 33 bigEndian: false -> 577660194
where it should have answered an Integer between 0 and 31
shapeType
"position 32, Integer between 0 and 31, Little Endian"
^shpBytes longAt: 33 bigEndian: false
No idea what could be the cause â apparently the header of the file (the first 100 bytes) is not ok...

You mean some types are missing? Because I get this error when I try to read some SHP files: "Types > 20 are not yet accounted for"
I wrote this script to reproduce:
| shpE legend urlRoot urlESRIFilePrefix urlESRIFileShp urlPath response fileRef |
" Download Shapefile resources " urlRoot := ' https://github.com/nvkelso/natural-earth-vector/blob/master/110m_cultural/ '. urlESRIFilePrefix := 'ne_110m_populated_places'. urlESRIFileShp := urlESRIFilePrefix , '.shp'. urlPath := urlRoot , urlESRIFilePrefix.
#('.shx' '.dbf' '.shp') do: [ : ext | | url | url := (urlPath , ext , '?raw=true') asZnUrl. (response := ZnEasy get: url) isSuccess ifFalse: [ self error: 'Cannot download file' ]. fileRef := FileSystem disk workingDirectory / (urlESRIFilePrefix , ext). fileRef writeStreamDo: [ : stream | stream nextPutAll: ((ZnByteEncoder newForEncoding: 'koi8r') decodeBytes: response contents ) ] ].
Once downloaded:
| urlESRIFilePrefix urlESRIFileShp shpE | urlESRIFilePrefix := 'ne_110m_populated_places'. urlESRIFileShp := urlESRIFilePrefix , '.shp'.
" Load and display it in Morphic " shpE := ShapeEnsemble fromFile: urlESRIFileShp.
Maybe it's related with the fact they are encoded as koi8r?
I checked with Zinc downloading first from the browser:
| shpFile |
shpFile := 'ne_110m_admin_0_countries.shp' asFileReference. [ shpFile binaryReadStreamDo: [ : in | (ZnCharacterEncoder detectEncoding: in upToEnd) identifier ] ] on: ZnCharacterEncodingError do: [ nil ].
Cheers,
