G'day there, all,
QGIS just discovered. Oh. Wow.
Jennifer of Chermside Oz here, with two questions of a very generic
nature.Sorry.
Before I commit a big slice of my remaining life-span trying to mistress
GIS via Q, can I ask:
1/ is Qgis in tandem with any known DB capable of providing me an
accurate fine-grained result on the area of just the oceans, all of
them, 360° round, that lie between the ancient Greeks Tropic zone, in my
case either ±45° lat or ±50°. It's the granularity that I need.(2° grid
good, tighter ideal.)
2/ if Yes, what would be your rough assessment of the time it would
take for this tech-head, in Mac since Syst 0.9 ancient crone, who is not
fluent in any code or language to pull out an answer, or
3/ again if Yes, and faster, is anyone willing to give this poor
pensioner (cue the strings & harps) a price on your digging out this data?
This because I believe that after 20 years of head scratching after the
shock of first seeing the 200 year plot of CO2 in the atmosphere, and
being an old radio tech recognizing a +ve feedback curve, think that
with my 5th concept(four failures) I've gotten a winner that should stop
ocean heating.
Reflecting enough incoming insolation back out to level the EEI, and
perhaps even reversing the heat build up. All done with 98% reflective
buoys launched at strategic points onto passing currents, so they stay
mostly in the Tropic zones. I need a scientifically valid referable
source of accurate areas data to calc how many bouys are needed. All CC
& open source, so not much followup cash flow.
Hope someone can see a solution. Short of measuring my old 300mm
inflatable home globe!
Google Earth has proved accurate to establish gross areas (+0.3%, my
measuring, 10° x 10° grids.)
Need far better info, so as to not be dismissed out of hand.
Cheers
Jen
