Re: [GRASS-user] interlis import
Hi Patrick, I wouldn't try to open Interlis files directly in GRASS. You are better off converting them to an intermediate format or database, e.g. spatialite, PostgreSQL, GML, etc. and work from there. If you open the files directly, performance will be bad. btw: Interlis consists of two files: 1. .ili file (contains the data model: topics, tables, columns, data types, domain lists, etc.) 2. .itf file (the raw data: geometry and attribute data). - itf means interlis transfer format You always need both files. Here are one or two examples: http://gis.hsr.ch/wiki/HowTo_OGR2OGR Good luck, Andreas On 3/11/11 8:00 PM, Patrick S. wrote: Dear List, does someone have experience in importing the topological format INTERLIS to GRASS?

Re: [GRASS-user] Re: GRASS Promotion Team
Hi, I am just commenting on the software. Inkscape is a vector graphics editor based on SVG (for single pages currently), similar to Illustrator or CorelDraw (although those may also support multipage documents). Inkscape, does not, per se produce large files if you stay with text and vector graphics. The files can only get large if you embed a lot of raster graphics. Embedding raster files can result in large files. Scribus is more a DTP software than a graphics editor, similar to InDesign. LaTeX is an entirely different beast with it's own strengths, best suited for writing scientific papers and articles. I don't think it is very well suited to design posters. For posters, flyers, clipart and vector graphics I would go with Inkscape, for multipage brochures I would go with Scribus and for manuals I would go with LaTeX. Btw: Inkscape can be used to produce and edit vector graphics that can later be embedded in Scribus (as SVG) and in LaTeX (I think best as PDF or PNG, or maybe also SVG in more recent versions).

[GRASS-user] Re: [Qgis-user] Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] augmenting donations
Hi all, I would like to discuss the sponsoring issue a little bit. For GIS managers that are not in direct charge of their budgets but need to discuss/approve their budget with their bosses/supervisors, I can say that: * It is relatively easy to raise money for development work of concrete features that are to be implemented - bosses usually see a direct value out of this - and they are already used to pay non-open-source corporations for their specific development efforts anyway * it is harder to raise money for bug-fixing - managers are often used to pay subscription fees or support contracts to commercial vendors, but usually aren't used to paying money to fix bugs * it is very hard to justify donations - as bosses usually don't understand the open-source model fully - and often don't see their responsibilities as a user of an open-source project I am just trying to help you guys to understand how government agencies or companies often work (exceptions are always possible). It is important to educate managers regarding the open-source development model. They are just not used to it and at the first glimpse they can find it strange - even if it is to their advantage. One may discuss if QGIS/GRASS (or other projects) could offer yearly support contracts. It may help to raise additional money in some cases. It is important to distinguish such contracts from their fully commercial counterparts. Customers shouldn't be forced into paying those fees/contracts - but they may fell better with paying them. Probably, such contracts, would have to be done by individual companies - or could the steering board coordinate such activities? Many managers in government agencies don't want to be held responsible in case things go wrong - and in case of using open-source software they are fully responsible about their decisions, whereas with commercial software they can always blame their commercial vendor (even if the contracts are always in favor of the software vendor and includes very limited liability of the vendor). At least in Switzerland I know that many GIS managers are thinking this way. They often want to at least share their responsibility with an external company.

Re: [GRASS-user] [Fwd: [OSGeo-Discuss] Can I do the same GIS tasks with OS (as with ESRI)?]
Thanks for sharing the link to the thesis. I would like to add that some of the drawbacks of GRASS can be compensated by using GRASS together with QGIS. There are ongoing efforts (mainly by Marco Hugentobler) in QGIS currently to improve the layout and printing tools. I think the integration of both programs looks promising and I hope that in the future the two projects will collaborate and integrate even more where GRASS provides all the numerous analysis and topological features, a good vector engine and commandline for automation; and QGIS concentrates on the Desktop GIS and easy to use GUIs.

Re: [GRASS-user] Vector drawings in PDF - converting them
ok, the problems are with the curves. The ogr2ogr tool has a converter from Interlis to other ogrformats. Interlis supports arcs (defined by three points). They also calculate new vertices along the arcs to be compatible to other formats that don't support curves. One can define how many Every SVG viewer has code on how to display curves (arcs, quadratic and cubic spline curves). But I don't know if you can dig up and work with that code directly. Many of them probably forward their drawing commands to underlying graphics libraries like Cairo, AGG, OpenVG, Java2D, etc. As you said, you might also want to ask the Batik developers on the Batik list. These people are usually friendly and often help where they can. Andreas Andreas, Thanks for you comments. I agree completely. The curves are definitely where the problem lies. There would need to be a clever algorithm that converted them to polylines with some sort of configurable resolution. However, my guess is the code used convert SVG to raster formats like TIF and PNG has to do something similar. I began looking into using the facilities in Batik to accomplish this. The PNGTranscoder looks to be a good place to start. Haven't gotten very far in this past weekend when I began to look into it, no blatant roadblocks yet. --Kurt Andreas Neumann wrote: Hi, I don't have an immediate solution to your problem, however, I would like to discuss the use of the SVG format. Also, are you using curves in your original data? SVG would be a great format for transforming non-GIS vector maps into a GIS format. But it is not so surprising that most GIS only export and don't import SVG. SVG is usually a presentation format, not a transfer format for GIS data. Also, SVG has a lot of features that can't be easily transfered to GIS - think about elliptical arcs, cubic and quadratic spline curves. Those would have to be transfered into the OGC geometry models, where support for curves is more or less in its infancy. A number of GIS software allows the export of SVG, not always in a very form, though: Postgis (ok), Grass (did not try that), Mapserver (haven't tried that), ESRI (crappy, they seem to have some sort of resolution for their vector export). But, I think it would be great to have svg support incorporated into the ogr tools. It would make sense, also since FME and other OS and commercial GIS support SVG. Andreas I have a TON of vector drawings available to me in PDF format that I'm georeferencing. So far, I'm doing it by converting them to PNGs and using r.to.vect to massage them. This is really tedious and the data isn't as clean as a straight vector conversion would be. In Illustrator, I can see that all the vector math is there. That is, the PDF isn't simply a wrapper around raster data. I've tried opening the PDFs in Illustrator and exporting them as DXFs, but Grass ignores a lot of the data when I do this...they look very different in Grass once imported. I can export them as SVG from Illustrator, but surprisingly, there doesn't appear to be a single open-source tool available out there that converts SVG into some mainstream GIS file format.
