I have an ASCII file with the following columns : ID, longitude, latitude, value



Is it possible to use OGR (ogr2ogr or ogrinfo) in command line in order to open the ASCII file and convert it to a shapefile (in WGS84) using the point coordinates (X field=longtitude, Y field=latitude) ?



What I want to do is similar with what QGIS does when opening an ascii file with "Delimited Text" and defining the geometry (point coordinates).



I want to do that for a high number of files so I want to know if this is possible in OGR.

          What you have is basically comma-separated values, so you can use GDAL's csv driver. You can find its documentation at https://www.gdal.org/drv_csv.html , see especially the section "Building point geometries".
