Re: [Qgis-user] Organizing a US / North American User Group

2014-01-22 Thread richard burcher
Great idea and def needed on this side of the Atlantic! 

Given the vast distances to get anywhere I'd add that a monthly virtual
meetup would be a good idea. Google Hangout to start and see where it goes.

Hi Andrew,

Good day!

Thanks for your advice, I'll copy the downloaded files in my USB. BTW, is
there any other way to configure the modules of GRASS and SAGA using
standalone installers? or the best way is to use OSGeo4W installer?

Thanks
-Leo

[Qgis-user] Organizing a US / North American User Group

2014-01-22 Thread Jeffrey Johnson
Hi Folks,

It seems like a good time to get a US / North American User Group
going since there has been a serious uptick in interest in QGIS on
this side of the Atlantic. I've talked to quite a few people privately
about this, but figured now is the time to bring it to the wider user
community.

So, my employer (Boundless Geo) would like to help organize an
inaugural User Group Meeting on April 11th, the day before the State
of the Map Conference in Washington DC. This seems like a good
opportunity to get everyone together when lots of spatially minded
people will be in town. The consensus is that we could arrange space
in the District during the day and have a happy hour nearby that
night.

I'm not sure what the procedure is for organizing a User Group (or if
there even is one), but we can take on the tasks of setting up a
mailing list, website etc. If the PSC can let us know what hoops we
should jump through, or things we should think about, please let us
know. We will be reaching out to lots of people who are very excited
about QGIS but haven't really joined the community and try to get the
involved.

Please contact me off-list if you are interested in helping with this
effort and as soon as we get a mailing list going I'll follow up with
a link here.

Hoping to see some of you in DC in April!

Hi Jonathan,

On Wed, 22. Jan 2014 at 17:11:51 +, Jonathan Moules wrote:
> What was the reasoning behind using odd numbers for development versions?

Just to avoid clashing version numbers.   2.0 is the release, 2.1 is the
version number that development version has and that's going to be released as
2.2 and so on.   So we'll never again run into the situation where you want to
install a release and the system claims you already have it or even something
newer, because of a development build you installed meanwhile already used it.
That's all.

What was strange was that we released 1.7, then switch master to 1.9.90 to
prepare 2.0, but went back to release that as 1.8, after releasing switch to
1.9.0, but skipped that to release for 2.0.Someone who installed 1.9.90
would never have got updates before the release of 2.0 without manually
removing the allegedly newer version.  That should only be required now if you
wanted to go back from the development version to the current release.

To me the actual numbers are irrelevant, it's just important that they are
monotonically increasing and that includes the development versions.

Re: [Qgis-user] Problem with numerical precision of a raster layer

2014-01-22 Thread Etienne Tourigny
That is probably because you have one large value (1.6e-08).

I assume you are using qgis 2.0.1 ?

You can change the min and max values before clicking Classify, or select a
different option in "Load min/max values" and click load

cheers, Etienne

Re: [Qgis-user] Current version of QGIS

2014-01-22 Thread Jonathan Moules
It occurs to me - this is a prime example of how this numbering system is
confusing to users. Quite a few folks are talking about using 2.1 and how
something is fixed in it, yet the QGIS webpage only has 2.0 on it. I know I
always hate it when projects do that and wonder why they're not keeping
their web-page updated.
What was the reasoning behind using odd numbers for development versions?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_versioning#Odd-numbered_versions_for_development_releases-
suggests that it only works well for long-release cycles which QGIS
doesn't have any more.
Cheers,
Jonathan

I think \xf3 is the ascii code for ó as seen at http://daleswanson.org/ascii.htm

Maybe the algorithm is having trouble interpreting that character if it's in 
any of the file names or the path to those files.

Worst case, you would have to remove that from all your filenames, but maybe it 
can be fixed by adjusting the operating systems default encoding that supports 
that character?

Unless someone knows that this limitation is part of python or QGIS?

[Qgis-user] Problem with numerical precision of a raster layer

2014-01-22 Thread steffy
Hi,
I've problems to visualize a .tif raster in a singleband pseudocolor map in
the new version of Qgis.

My raster layer ranges from 0 to 1.6e-08, when I try to classify from
grayscale to pseudocolor all values are rounded at zero. 

There is the possibility to change the numerical precision? (worked well in
the old Qgis)

Thank you!!!
Steffy
