OGR2OGR – Exporting Vector to KML Without Extended Data

Question

If I convert a shapefile as kml in QGIS, GRASS or ogr2ogr directly, defining the name and/or description field with the -dsco tag, all columns in the attribute table of the input layer are exported to the kml as ExtendedData. Is there a way to create the kml with the Name and Description only, i.e., without the Extended data?

Answer 1

You should be able to choose what goes over by using the -select option
