Hi Guys, Yesterday, I put up the following suggestion at the QGIS Forum and have been advised to bring the matter up in the Mailing List:
Tinkering around with OpenLayers plugin, I've found it to be a very valuable asset in being able to impress potential users how to import Google Maps as a base. They are often excited to know this and it seems to generate wannabe QGIS users very easily. This brings me to another source of information namely "Wikimapia". Zooming down to information provided by users on Malaysia, I am equally impressed by such voluminous information they have. My humble suggestion is..."Who is kind enough to make it possible to at least get Wikimapia viewable in QGIS just like Google Hybrid can and maybe make it possible to import their attributes with aid of Open StreetMap". I am sure this will intensify the popularity of QGIS. Hoping this idea will materialize in days to come. Thanks Badaveil -- *ubuntu: Linux for human beings*
