[GIS] get a multipoint shapefile

pointshapefile

I'm trying to find a multipoint shapefile to do some testing for an application I'm working on, but I cannot seem to find one (and do not have ArcGIS to create one). Can anyone suggest a place to find a sample multipoint shapefile?

Best Answer

I uploaded a part of the dataset I'm working with regularly. Due to user error restrictions, it has to be a multipoint layer instead of just a point one, but most features will have only one point as the multipoint. Anyway, you can grab it here. It will stay there for posterity's sake.

In general, you could create it with other software, some free like QGIS, or write it as WKT and use a converter. GDAL/OGR come to mind, but there are also free online versions like GeoConverter.
