[gdal-dev] Call for discussion on RFC 59: GDAL/OGR utilities as a library

2015-07-09 Thread faza mahamood
Hi,

This is a call for discussion on RFC 59: GDAL/OGR utilities as a library.

https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/rfc59_utilities_as_a_library

Summary:

This RFC defines new function for each GDAL utility. The new utility
functions can be used to work on in-memory datasets. The utility code is
modified to call the new function. This RFC gives a general frame and
principles, demonstrated with gdalinfo, but aimed at being extended with
other utilities.

Regards,
Faza

[gdal-dev] Need feedback regarding the approaches for swig bindings for librarified GDAL utilities

2015-06-04 Thread faza mahamood
Hi,

I am working on swig bindings for librarified GDAL utilities as part of my
Google Summer of Code project. I have already librarified gdalinfo utility.

https://github.com/fazam/gdal/blob/gdalinfo/gdal/apps/gdal_utils.h
https://github.com/fazam/gdal/blob/gdalinfo/gdal/apps/gdalinfo_lib.cpp

These are the two approaches for swig bindings, after discussing with my
mentor Even.

(1)To create a new module gdal_utils
If we go with this approach, the function calls for gdalinfo and ogrinfo
will be like
gdal_utils.gdalinfo()
gdal_utils.ogrinfo()

(2)To go with the existing modules gdal and ogr
In this approach the function calls for gdalinfo and ogrinfo will be like
gdal.Info()
ogr.Info()

We also need to decide on the names of the functions for all librarified
utilities. Since there is already gdal.RasterizeLayer() and
gdal.ContourGenerate() which does most of the work of gdal_rasterize and
gdal_contour utilities, what should be the names of functions for
gdal_rasterize and gdal_contour?
What should we name the function for ogr2ogr?

I'd appreciate any feedback/suggestion.

Regards,
Faza

[gdal-dev] RFC 44: Add Parseable Output Formats for ogrinfo and gdalinfo

2015-03-28 Thread Faza Mahamood
Hi,

I am planning to implement json output for gdalinfo and ogrinfo. I have added 
the proposed json format for gdalinfo. I would like to get feedback.

[gdal-dev] [GSOC] PROPOSAL - Integration of GDAL utilities into GDAL core library

2015-03-21 Thread Faza Mahamood
Hi,

I have submitted my proposal in the melange website.

It can be found here

https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/review/student/google/gsoc2015/faza/5668600916475904

I would be glad if the mentors could review it and suggest the necessary 
improvements before the deadline.

[gdal-dev] Introduction

2015-03-03 Thread Faza Mahamood
Hi
I am Faza Mahamood, undergraduate student at SASTRA University, India. I have 
used GDAL for my University project entitled High resolution, multi-view image 
mosaic with automatic seamline for working with Erdas Imagine .img format in 
c++.
I would like to contribute to GDAL as part of GSOC. I have downloaded the 
current development version and have successfully built on linux. After going 
through the ideas page, i am interested in Integration of cpp GDAL utilities 
into GDAL core library.
