Re: [Qgis-user] Re: Brochure from FIG/FAO: FLOSS in Cadastre and Land Registration - Opportunities and Risk
Hi Gertrude, I suggest that you download QGIS and install all the QGIS plugins including the 3rd parties and when you do the review. A lot of the QGIS plugin are not documented, or just have general title and features are not fully describe. The manual lacks documentation of these plugins. Some are not listed in the QGIS plugin repo e.g. QuantunNik - rendering and creating Mapnik Map in QGIS. Some of the features in QGIS are hidden (e.g. creating unlimited Color Ramps for thematic mapping). You can create as many color ramps combination as you can in QGIS 1.5 not even using a plugin to do this. Anybody know how many QGIS plugins?

Hi Andreas, Quoting Andreas Neumann : Thank you for pointing us to the existing efforts of Stefan, you and others for Desktop GIS comparisons. I think we (the QGIS community) can certainly help to update the QGIS column in your comparison chart (http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Albk_XRkhVkzdGxyYk8tNEZvLUp1UTUzTFN5bjlLX2c&hl=en) - there is quite a bit of functionality/information missing in this chart. Things that were introduced in QGIS 1.4 and QGIS 1.5. Yes, that is the table I was referring to, already a bit outdated but very useful if the info is updated for all the projects. I cc this to Cameron Shorter (Cameron do you know if there have been any new developments on the desktop GIS comparison issue?) The question is how we deal with functionality that is only available through Plugins? Should it be mentioned that the functionality is available through plugin (a footnote?) I guess this is something that the participating projects would have to agree on, I would say that it is perfectly OK to add functionality to the table that is only available through plugins. In my view, a comparison table should answer questions such as "We need to do this and that in our project, can we do it with QGIS or do we need gvSIG?" and in that sense, all the functionality that is publicly available (and tested with the current version) could be included. On the other hand, I suppose only stable software releases should be included, since the stable versions are the ones that are used in production environments. One interesting new development with QGIS is to use existing resources also for web services. The start is the QGIS Mapserver (or QGIS server), which can use an existing desktop project and deploy it as WMS for the web. Together with OpenLayers/Ext/GeoExt one can do quite powerful webmapping systems, in a relative short time. Later, additional OGC services may follow, such as WFS server or others. Support for WMS, WFS and other OGC services are definitely interesting features to follow up and compare between projects! For the record: QGIS did not start as a GRASS viewer, but as a Postgis viewer (by Gary Sherman). I believe GRASS editing was added much later. Thanks for pointing this out!

Hi all, do we have a way to fix existing self-intersecting features in QGIS (shapefiles)? Node editing tool shows them well, but how about fixing?

I also still have the same problem as the two other posters in this thread: using the QGIS 1.5 version that is supposed to have MrSID and ECW file support, and using MrSID files is no problem, but loading ECW files crashes QGIS. I have had to convert the ECW file to a different format to make it show on QGIS 1.5. I am using Windows 7 .

[Qgis-user] qgis segmentation fault
Title: qgis segmentation fault I've just installed qgis under Fedora Core 11 on a pretty new HP lap-top with 2 Gb memory. I installed it by yum procedure but it gave me a segnentation fault. I build the tool from source code with the same result. The gdb rold me that the fault occurred in libQtGui.so.4 (on my system from qt-x11-4.6.2-17.fc11.i586) Could anybody give me any suggestion?

Re: [Qgis-user] adding txt as shp
Hello J.R., I'm not sure about want you intend to do. Do want to adapt a model to calculate contours of the data or do you simply want to display a continous (raster)image? the question is rather do you want to use vector data or raster data. If you like to gain a raster image from the points you might want to use grass(plugin) and convert the point data to raster. If you want to derive contour lines or areas you can use the contour plugin as Micha Silver proposed already. Otherwise with grass you can apply even more complex models, depending on the complexity of your data the method of deriving contours and/or the quality and scale of your data. cheers Stefan Am Samstag, den 28.08.2010, 12:11 -0700 schrieb john: > Hello Stefan, >First; sorry about the misspelling of your name in the last > posting.
