I want to export a XSD from a GML.
I already have the GML and I want to export a XSD that fits the GML
For an ETL tool we've programmed, people have to deliver a GML, XML and XSD. Those people already have a GML and XML, the ETL tool also requires an XSD. So I'm looking for an easy way to export an XSD that fits the GML
Is it possible to make an export in QGIS or ArcMap?

The layer name to be used instead of "input_layer" can be checked by listing the layers with ogrinfo:
