I need to deploy four stand-alone laptops with a basic GIS (data
viewing only) and have chosen QGIS for this. The data held is for the
entire county of Warwickshire, and one of the datasets I need to put
on there is MasterMap. Specifically the datasets I'm using are:
Topographic line: 3.7 million features
Topographic Area: 1.3 million features
Cartographic Text: 250,000 features
Given the dataset size, obviously the first choice is a database, but
as these are stand-alone laptops that must have the simplest setup
possible (they're going to be used out in the field away from
tech-support) I've ruled that option out..
Hello!
No, a database could well be a possibility :-)
Spatialite, which would have the advantage that you have just one file
for the data, and additionally the advantages of a database concerning
other (attribute) data...queries, views etc.
