Hi,
Please add couple of rows from your CSV file. Maybe the lon and lat fields
are otherwise OK but GDAL does not recognize them to contain numbers but
perhaps text. You can also check what sort of attributes ogrinfo reports
with
ogrinfo file1.csv -al -so

Hi,
ogrinfo csv.csv csv -al -oo autodetect_type=yes
Ogrinfo finds numbers from the .csv file automatically, probably because
the
ogrinfo csv.vrt -al -so
ogrmerge f csv -o merged.csv csv.vrt
Warning 1: The 'lon' and/or 'lat' fields of the source layer are not
declared as numeric fields, so the spatial filter cannot be turned into an
attribute filter on them
Ogrmerge runs when I add a mapping file .csvt
csv.csvt
=====
Real,Real,String
It seems to me that your vrt file is OK but there is some issue in the
ogrmerge.py script that does not get the data type of the field correctly
from vrt. Write the csvt file and you should be fine.
