WebApp to show Shapefile information

I wrote a simple HTML5 Web App to show basic information about one or more ESRI Shapefile (*.shp) files similar to the shpinfo command from the open source ShapeLib library. The processing of the Shapefile is done in the local web browser without having to upload it to a server. The web app can be run from this web site http://dominoc925-pages.appspot.com/webapp/shpfile_info/default.html.

One the page is displayed, either click the button and select one or more Shapefiles or drag and drop *.shp files into the dashed box as shown in the screenshots below.



The Shapefile information is displayed in the web page.
