The second idea is to let load into R only attributes table, like

Barry's

spqr
does it. It is muuuch faster, quite simpler and just sufficient for most

purposes.

I think this is a very good idea, and I will implement this later tonight.
Look for an updated manageR with an added button to load only attributes.


Not sure what you mean here, losing spatial information once in R?


Anyway, I'm strongly interested in QGIS statistical features and I'm

going

to
join Bridge Team soon :)


Great! The more the merrier. This is a cool project, and I think it can
really set QGIS apart as an all-in-one spatial analysis solution!


I'd like to play as well. I agree that including (spatial) statistical 
capabilities (best through R) would be a major step forward.

This is a spherical projection which sets the WGS84 equatorial radius
for both ellipsoid axes (R=6378137m).
AFAIK you cannot specify any valid +ellps= entry, because
+ellps=sphere implies  R=6370997m.

[Qgis-user] ideas for developpers

2008-05-15 Thread Sebastien Vial
Hi all

First many thanks to Carson for those amazing plugins... specially for the
manageR !!

(perhaps I should write those ideas on some page in the wiki... but where ?)

And now, some ideas :
* for plugin developpers with time : (I'm a gis teacher, but with no time
and no python capacities... I'm trying to discover this interesting
programming language)
- join by attribute : join all the objets with the same attributes (the
opposite of the split by attributes) ; used to merge some polygons with the
same value in a column attribute
- simplify vector layer according to the scale ; there exists a python
script - in the gdal package for python- whose name is simplify.py that does
it... and a postgis script http://www.bostongis.com/postgis_simplify.snippet

* Wouldn't it be interesting to organize (at least a little) the plugin menu
? mine begins to be very... large ! For exemple, we could organize like
- vector objects oriented plugins
- database oriented plugins
- raster oriented
- import/export
- selecting
- statistics...

* and about the plugin manager : adding a column to know the installed
version of the plugin (like some linux package manager), in order to compare
the version number, and to know if the plugin needs to be re-installed ---
and perhaps a warning when there is a new version of a plugin

Many thanks in advance !!

I've decided not to wait and have done the necessary changes, so from
SVN r8443 you're able to use identify() for rasters. A simple example
to print bands and the values at specified point:

ident = rlayer.identify(QgsPoint(15.30,40.98))
for (k,v) in ident.iteritems():
print str(k),":",str(v)

Hmm, I don't use GRASS a lot, so I didn't implement this, but now that you
mention it, it's probably a good idea. Unfortunately (and again, in this
case I'm stuck with OGR drivers here for now) GRASS layers are read only
AFAIK. So maybe I'll set it up so that you can read them in, and then
export them to one of the other org formats...?

This is my dream as well. I don't know C though, so I don't know how I
would write a function to convert say a QgsVectorLayer to a sp
Spatial*DataFrame? Anyone wanna give it a go?

Carson, I'm one of not numerous, who haven't congratulate you the rate of 
creating plugins yet! ;) Are you a cyborg? :D

The manageR is great, especially after implementing the import of results, but 
has one imperfection. It don't read many layers: with changed names, grass 
layers and postGIS layers with particular chars in their names.

Isn't possible to find one unified way to load every QGIS data object into R? 
What about a new R methods for classes from the sp package? I know this is a 
lot of extra work, when GDAL and OGR providers are already available, but I 
dream about separation of all processing tools from providers. It's why I'm 
so reluctant to read those raster values via GDAL. It's of course idea for 
future, as well as manageR gives great comfort anyway.

The second idea is to let load into R only attributes table, like Barry's spqr 
does it. It is muuuch faster, quite simpler and just sufficient for most 
purposes. 

Anyway, I'm strongly interested in QGIS statistical features and I'm going to

org2org to convert  them  might be a big  project.
So I put
"+proj=merc +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +lat_ts=0.0 +lon_0=0.0 +x_0=0.0 +y_0=0
+k=1.0 +units=m [EMAIL PROTECTED] +no_defs <>" in custom projection. But a
warning message showed that there must be a "ellips=".

Then I added the
# Google Mercator
<900913> +proj=merc +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +lat_ts=0.0 +lon_0=0.0 +x_0=0.0
+y_0=0 +k=1.0 +units=m [EMAIL PROTECTED] +no_defs <>
to epsg file. Still, the Google Mercator didn't show up in projection select
window.

I googled for a while, some old posts suggested add it to srs.db. But I have
no idea how to do so.
Besides, I found little imformation about it through  the net. Is it just a
silly question? Any helpful information would be appreciated.



regards

Kuja

Great page, though quite void yet. I think such collection of ideas may 
improve the uniformity of plugins. We should also work out and put on Wiki 
more precised rules for developers. Hmmm.. Hasn't somebody told about it yet?
(last night I've watched "Memento" and have stopped to trust my memory ;))

I've started to learn PyQt & PyQGis, so I'm searching a inspiration, but also 
I don't want to increase the chaos in plugins ;) And I thnik, I'm not only 
one.

Hi Maning,

I've started a 'Python plugin ideas/wishlist' in the wiki some time ago:
http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/PythonPluginIdeas

If you think this is doable in python, feel free to add your 'wish' to 
the list :-)

Hi,

I've used this before:

Habitat Digitizer Extension
"The Habitat Digitizer Extension was designed to use a hierarchical
classification scheme to attribute polygons, lines, and points
delineated by visually interpreting georeferenced images such as
aerial photographs, satellite images, and side scan sonar. The
extension allows users to create custom classification schemes and
rapidly delineate and attribute polygons, lines, and points using
simple menus and dialogs.

Several advantages to using classification schemes with a hierarchical
structure include: the detail of habitat categories can be expanded or
collapsed to suit user needs, the thematic accuracy of each
category/hierarchical level can be determined, and additional
categories can be easily added or deleted at any level of the scheme
to suit user needs."

http://arcscripts.esri.com/details.asp?dbid=10556

Are there others who used this before?  Maybe we can "encourage"
plugin developers to develop such a plugin. Need it very much, but
can't code :(

cheers,
maning

Re: [Qgis-user] How to probe raster values?

2008-05-15 Thread Borys Jurgiel
Thanks a lot, guys!

Carson, I'll use GDAL, as there is no other way out ;) but I strongly prefer 
to read values directly from QGis's object due to compatibility with any data 
source - but this is also subject for another topic. Wait a moment ;)

Martin, so may we expect, that the identify() method will be rewritten to 
match QMap-type arguments in the near future?

Cheers,
Borys

[Qgis-user] Qgis "segmentation fault" in Fedora 9

2008-05-15 Thread Carlo van Rijswijk

Hi,

I recently switched from Ubuntu Hardy H. to Fedora 9 (gnome). Of course
I wanted to install Qgis as my first app. But after installing
"qgis-0.9.1-5.fc9(i368)" via PackageKit and running it, I only see the
splash screen for 1 second and then qgis closes with "Segmentation
fault" (when started on the command line)". What can I do?

Thanks for helping out. Carlo
