[Qgis-user] Re: PyQgis MapServer Export with Mapserver 6.0.1

Hi, 

I've maked all the changes that you say and others that I found:

My first error was cause the type cartoline for symbols is no longer used. I
erased all in my symbol file. 

The GD driver is no longer used for PNG output. So I've removed all the
OUTPUTFORMAT blog.

I've put a SHAPEPATH, I've erased the FONTSET but not the Symbolset cause I
have a point shape. 

I've changed IMAGEPATH 'C:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/ms_tmp/' 

and  IMAGEURL '/ms_tmp/' 

I have all the folders and all data in C:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/

Now, the message error is:

I don't have any OSX platform to test on, so if other have the same issues on

Re: [Qgis-user] 'gdawarp' causing shift and other questions

2012-01-31 Thread Tilottama Ghosh 
Hi,

Thanks for your responses. I checked and my shapefile and tiff file are in
the same projection. The ticket posted by Etienne showed that this problem
of gdalwarp has been reported before. This is what was mentioned in  ticket
#3947 and I tried it.

"I should add that not adding -crop_to_cutline results in no shift.
Commands I ran:

(1) gdalwarp -cutline cluj_co.shp -crop_to_cutline sample.tif cropped.tif

result is shifted

(2) gdalwarp -cutline cluj_co.shp sample.tif out.tif

result is not shifted"

However, although using only -cutline places the carved out raster from the
bigger raster correctly (without shifting it 500m), it does not reduce the
size of the whole image (in the sense, it gives 0 values everyhwere outside
the state but still has all those 3399 columns and 3747 rows. This defeats
the purpose of my whole exercise of trying to carve ot only a portion of
the raster on the basis of the state shapefile. gdal2xyz generates the csv
file, but excel fails to open all the rows!

Any suggestions, again?

Thanks,

Tilo

[Qgis-user] Resetting the extent of a shapefile

2012-01-31 Thread magerlin 
I have deleted large geographical parts of a shape file because I only needed
a very little part of it.

But using "Zoom to layer extent" still zoom to the extent of the original
shape file.

I have tried to re-save the file using save-as, specifying CRS etc. but no
change.

In "Layer properties, Metadata" I can read:

/Extents:
In layer spatial reference system units : xMin,yMin 622219.27,1154061.75 :
xMax,yMax 643120.73,1204120.54/

Where are these data stored and how do I update it?

Hi,

That mapfile has quite a lot to correct. Two things I noticed first is that
nowadays OGC services do not work at all by default. They must be explicitly
activated in the MAP level METADATA with something like  "ows_enable_request"
"*"  which activates everything. Templates must also exist and they must start
with a magic string. Read the Mapserver migration guide
http://mapserver.org/trunk/MIGRATION_GUIDE.html

The Mapserver export plugin seems to make so bad mapfiles for the current
Mapserver version that it would perhaps be better to remove the plugin if nobody
has time and interest for correcting it. I do not believe it has worked well
since Mapserver 5.2.

Hi Jukka,

I'm willing to invest some time in it, if others provide me with some 
input for the things to change (like you did: add 'ows_enable_request *' 
in all metainfo).


A reason for not so much activity in the plugin, is (I think) also the 
fact that it is currently only working good for old symbology.
I'm not sure how much effort it will be and/or if it is feasible to 
include the more complicated 'new symbology' in it...


Regards,

Richard

Hi, I've added the METADATA

It seems that Template is used to format the map for it's visualitzation in
web. But what I want is open this map with openlayers in an existing web...

If I use an empty template with the magic line:

MapServer Template Sample
  
  MapServer Template Sample
  


The only thing displayed at screen is "MapServer Template Sample"

And if I use the web where I want to display the map, all other layers WMS
are displayed but the one that i maked appears like a broken image repeated
for all the map.

Please do not start testing with OpenLayers and templates. Begin with a normal
WMS and use either some well behaving GIS client (QGis, OpenJUMP, Kosmo) or even
better, a browser with hand written basic calls. They are not extraordinary hard
to write and by writing the requests yourself you are the one controlling the
situation and not your application. Basic GetMap is as follows
http://server.com/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=d:/mymap.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&Layers=my_layer&BBOX=w,x,y,z&FORMAT=image/png&WIDTH=500&HEIGHT=500&SRS=EPSG:4326&STYLES=

and here is a live example
http://188.64.1.61/cgi-bin/ms_ows?REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&WIDTH=563&HEIGHT=437&LAYERS=osm_pisteet&FORMAT=image/png&BBOX=-369151.98300283286,6597900.0,1511076.628895184,8057331.444759207&SRS=EPSG:3067&STYLES=

Make your service work with the basic setting and only after you have seen it
works continue to more challenging use.

Hi list, 
undigging that very interesting topic and tool. Library dependencies to
xlrd, xlw and python uno limits the useability of this tool for most users
and non admin ones. Installing those dependencies is a bit hard and could
also be interfering with other python install registered in Windows (ArcGIS
for example)

I really need that kind of functionnalities for users under Citrix in my

Is it possible to add these dependencies in QGis full package to avoid

"gdal2xyz generates the csv file, but excel fails to open all the rows!"

Ah, so you now have a new csv file having a huge number of lines that have a
value of zero in the third column? You could delete these unwanted lines
using awk:

awk.exe "$3!=0" FS=, infile.csv > thinned.csv

Awk comes with Linux, but there are versions for Windows too.

Good luck, Nick.

Re: [Qgis-user] Atlas plugin - create map books

2012-01-31 Thread Luca Lanteri 
Hi, I'm trying to use the atlas plugin.
All works fine except that if I use my local projection system (EPSG:
32632) the WMS base map
is printed shifted. If I print directly via QGIS composer the WMS is
printed in the right way.
The same thing happened with the map book plugin but it can be solved using
the trick of "print as raster".

Anyone can confirm to me this bug. Can I do some other test that can be
used to solve the problem ?

thanks

Hi,

>From http://gdal.org/ogr/drv_shapefile.html 

Spatial extent

Shapefiles store the layer spatial extent in the .SHP file. The layer spatial
extent is automatically updated when inserting a new feature in a shapefile.
However when updating an existing feature, if its previous shape was touching
the bounding box of the layer extent but the updated shape does not touch the
new extent, the computed extent will not be correct. It is then necessary to
force a recomputation by invoking the SQL 'RECOMPUTE EXTENT ON ' via
the datasource ExecuteSQL() method. The same applies for the deletion of a 
shape.

Note: RECOMPUTE EXTENT ON is available in OGR >= 1.9.0.

Thus RECOMPUTE EXTENT ON should help, or then saving the modified data into new
shapefile and renaming that back afterwards.

[Qgis-user] one edit form for a set of objects

2012-01-31 Thread Richard Duivenvoorde 

Hi List,

does somebody have a clever idea (or hopefully show me QGIS 
functionality which I'm not aware of) for the following:


- I have a shape with buildings
- for every building I have 10 new attributes which are empty/false
- I want to select 15 buildings at once, and give them all the same set 
of values for those 10 attributes


The ideal scenario:
- select 15 buildings in one way or another
- get a normal form, tick/fill all values in that form
- automagically all 15 buildings have exact the same value set 
(overriding the older values)


I'm aware of some work-arounds:
- given a selection, work with attribute table and field calculator
Not working:
- the 'Reuse last entered attribute values' in the Digitizing tab. These 
only work for new entered objects (which is logical actually)...

Select the features and use "Merge attributes of selected features".

2012-01-31 Thread Francesc Cañas 
What I want to do, at last, is display a point shapefile in a viewer with a
global map as a base layer.
To do that, I started with openlayers to put controls and the WMS with the
global map. Up here, it works. 

In OpenLayers tutorials I read that I can call a mapserver file with
openlayers and that's for that that I tried to do this way... 

I didn't pretend to mix templates with OpenLayers I only pretend to create a
mapfile to call with the instruction:

  layer = new OpenLayers.Layer.MapServer( "Projectes_cat",
   "http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe";, {map:
'C:/ms4w/apache/htdoc/projectes_auma_wgs84_v7.map'} );
map.addLayer(layer);

Tot test the mapfile I do with the: 
'http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=C:/Users/Francesc/Documents/Projectes_wgs84_v7.map
at the browser.
  
Sorry, I'm new on it and I don't really understand the way you say: "Begin
with a normal WMS and use either some well behaving GIS client (QGis,
OpenJUMP, Kosmo) or even better, a browser with hand written basic calls.

http://server.com/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=d:/mymap.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&Layers=my_layer&BBOX=w,x,y,z&FORMAT=image/png&WIDTH=500&HEIGHT=500&SRS=EPSG:4326&STYLES=";

The link doesn't work

Thanks a lot again!!

[Qgis-user] Geotiff of french topographic maps

2012-01-31 Thread Andreas Neumann 
Hi,

I am looking for geotiff files of the french 1:25000 topomaps (La
Réunion). Anyone knows where I can buy or download them?

I'd like to use them in QGIS, hence the wish to get geo-referenced
tiff-files.

Thanks for any pointers,
Andreas

What you want is called "scan25"

But it seems that you have to read french :(

[Qgis-user] Windows Server 2008

2012-01-31 Thread Charlie Bailey 
Hello List,

 

I have been running QGIS on both Mac 10.6  and Windows XP machines with
great success. It is a marvelous program and learning tool. 

 

I'm wondering if it will run as well on a server running Windows Server
2008? Please advise.

 

 

Thank you,

Re: [Qgis-user] Geotiff of french topographic maps

2012-01-31 Thread Andreas Neumann 
Hi Yves,

I think I managed to select data for download - but woooh - thats way
too expensive for me. Even in Switzerland the scanned maps are much
cheaper (a fraction of the price in France). All the scans of the Island
La Réunion cost several thousand Euros ...

Is there no cheaper data available for private usage (e.g. hiking)? I am
not intending to commercially use the data.

Well - maybe I will just use the Openstreetmap data and forget about the
elevation information ... Or I will scan the maps myself. I bought the
printed maps but I thought it would be fun to use scanned maps with QGIS
on Android - now that the GPS works in QGIS Android.

Thanks if you know any alternatives,
Andreas

Well, if you have a connection available when you want to use it then 
you can use the geoportail's api (it's inspiro-compatible but makes use 
of geodrm).

do you mean Inspire compatible? I don't know inspiro-compatible means,
otherwise ...

Thanks for the hint,

Re: [Qgis-user] Geotiff of french topographic maps / hiking with QGIS & OSM

2012-01-31 Thread Mayeul Kauffmann 
Hi,
It's quite doable to combine OSM and elevation data (level curves) in
QGIS.
See my first example here:
http://hub.qgis.org/wiki/quantum-gis/OpenStreetMap_data_rendered_with_QGIS

(But maybe you knew this, or did I misunderstood "forget about the
elevation information" ?  Just use gdal_contour to put SRTM data into
postgis.)

The main thing missing in above rendering is a UTM grid (easy; useful if
you have a GPSr).
Even better with a subgrid like here (made with QGIS for A3 printing):

http://es.scribd.com/doc/74670863/Cartina-Ranco-Comabbio-Lago-Maggiore


Then save in vector pdf, print and have a nice hike!

I've just released my version 5 of osm2postgresql
this may help for using OSM data in QGIS

http://sourceforge.net/projects/osm2postgresql/

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osm2postgresql

Cilaos and Piton de la Fournaise area seem not to bad in OSM (while
Mafate lacks data).

[Qgis-user] QGIS for android got GPS and compass support

2012-01-31 Thread Marco Bernasocchi 

Hi all,
Lately I’ve been working on adding native GPS support to QGIS on Android 
and sucessfully managed to implement it. A big thanks goes to the 
municipality of Schoten in Belgium which sponsored the developement. 
This functionality is included in the latest nightly builds as of 
yesterday and in master-alpha4.


Furthermore I've implemented a plugin that reads the internal compass 
readings and shows the value in a small dock widget.


Other bugs like the font size have been fixed and the overall look is 
much nicer.


As usual, all the latest news, bugs and downloads can be found at [0] or 
on my blog [1]


As a last message, remember that any economic support will make QGIS on 
android evolve much quicker, so if you can, or know somebody who could, 
please consider sponsoring.


Ciao
Marco
