  • Create a GeoPackage with a layer for each input Shapefile:
    ogrmerge.py -f GPKG -o path/to/output.gpkg path/to/input1.shp path/to/input2.shp ...
  • Create a virtual datasource (VRT) with a layer for each input GeoJSON:
    ogrmerge.py -f VRT -o path/to/output.vrt path/to/input1.geojson path/to/input2.geojson ...
  • Concatenate two vector datasets and store source name of dataset in attribute 'source_name':
    ogrmerge.py -single -f GeoJSON -o path/to/output.geojson -src_layer_field_name country source_name path/to/input1.shp path/to/input2.shp ...
