Hi Guys, Regarding scripting -- I have done a lot of programming over the years but have found limited resources available for the various tools shoved in JAVA Applications like BeanTools, JPython and even the command console in gvSIG. What is needed are clear tutorials that show you have to access data stored in files, conduct tasks (rotate, reproject, move, cut paste, etc), save data and bundle this into a program. These scripts, which are essentially elaborate macros, can be made available for others to complete set tasks. Combined with a GUI interface for dialogs, combos, text fields, etc people such as myself would be able to contribute new functionality. One thing I have noticed in this GIS Community is that their are alot of extensions around but very few scripts or smaller programs. For example I convert from AGD66 to GDA94 (geo to MGA/AMG) regularly... I would really like to be able to create a routine that could do these reprojections with click of the button.
In regarding to putting my musings on OSGeo -- I have been asked to do just this and have already spoken with Tyler Mitchell. So if anyone can help finalizing the table below I would be appreciative. Some functions I have not been able to find how or if it can be done. So if you can turn a "?" to a Yes/No or believe a Yes or No is allocated incorrectly let me know. I will republish the list tomorrow with peoples comments. Cheers Simon Simon Cropper Botanicus Australia Pty Ltd PO Box 160, Sunshine, Victoria 3020. P: 9311 5822.
