[Qgis-user] PostGIS raster access in QGIS using DBManager (or wktraster)
Dear QGIS users, [This was posted on QGIS developer as well, but maybe I should seek the solution here] I am using QGIS 2.2 .0 (Valmiera) and trying to load a raster query result via DBManager, using the following query: select 1 as rid, st_union(st_band(rast, '4,3,2') ) as rast from o_8_lc81970232013202lgn00_all_rds_sub, municipalities where municipalities.wkb_geometry rast and munname = 'Veendam' (in short: Band 4,3,2 of a raster2pgsql-loaded Landsat-8 image (overview 8 version) for a municipality polygon (administrative commune boundary). Execute (F5) correctly returns a single row (and I can save the union result with ST_AsTIFF() to file in a script) When I try to Load as a new layer to visualise the result in QGIS, I get the following error message: Erroneous query: SELECT DISTINCT upper(geometrytype(rast)),st_srid(rast) FROM (select 1 as rid, st_union(st_band(rast, '4,3,2') ) as rast from o_8_lc81970232013202lgn00_all_rds_sub, gemeentegebieden where gemeentegebieden.wkb_geometry rast and gemnaam = 'Veendam' ) AS subQuery_0 returned 7 [ERROR: function geometrytype(raster) does not exist LINE 1: SELECT DISTINCT upper(geometrytype(rast)),st_srid(rast) ... ^ HINT: No function matches the given name and argument types.

Is this a known issue, and, if so, can it be modified, for instance by providing explicitly geometrytype and srid (and if so, how?). I also checked out the wktraster plugin, but that does not work for 2.2. Is an upgrade expected soon [or should I try writing it myself].

Re: [Qgis-user] IntraMaps Roam first release - Windows QGIS Data Collection
Hello, Thanks a lot Nathan for this work ! Note that we at Oslandia are working on a new PostGIS / Spatialite versionning and offline system, intended to be used by Roam to edit data offline and merge it with online PostGIS database. A prototype should be opensourced in the next weeks/month. We will keep you posted. Vincent Le vendredi 7 mars 2014 07:32:42, Nathan Woodrow a écrit : Hi everyone, Just dropping a quick email out to let everyone know about a project I have been working on the last couple of months. Digital Mapping Solutions, and myself, would like to announce the first version of IntraMaps Roam - a simple, but flexible, Windows based data collection application built using Python and QGIS. IntraMaps Roam (or Roam for short) is a standalone, fully bundled, Python application that was created to do data collection with a QGIS backend. For those of you who have seen my QMap project I started a year or so ago you can consider this a reincarnation of that project. Most of the code has been reworked and using the QGIS libs gave me full flexibility in layout. The release page can be found at https://github.com/DMS-Aus/Roam/releases/tag/v2.0 and the wiki with all the information to get started at: https://github.com/DMS-Aus/Roam/wiki You can also take a look at the FAQ for the common questions: https://github.com/DMS-Aus/Roam/wiki/FAQ Roam has been a great exercise in using and bundling QGIS libs with a Python application. As Roam is based on PyQt and QGIS it is under the GPL2 license. Pull requests are welcome.

[Qgis-user] Viewing SPOT5 imagery as pseudo-RGB in QGIS
Hi,
I've got some SPOT5 imagery that I want to convert to (close to) real
colour, and am told that:
Band 1 is green
Band 2 is red
Band 3 is NIR
band 4 is shortwave IR
I found two different methods for creating pseudo-Blue. (or pseudo RGB)
Blue = 0.7*Green + 0.24*Red - 0.15*NIR
and the other was:
Blue = 0.85*Band 1 - 0.15*B3
Green = 0.65*Band 1 + 0.35*Band 3
Red = Band 2
so they are fairly similar (assuming the second one has the same band
order as my image).
I use gdal_calc.py to create the 3 separate band-tif images and then
gdal_merge.py to create my two variants of the RGB tiffs.
When I open these images in QGIS 2.0.1, they are brownish rather that
pseudo RGB
I have set the 'style' to multiband colour, loaded the min/max values
and then set contrast to Stretch to Min/Max.
I have also tried various combinations of the 3 bands in case
gdal_merge.py doesn't honour file-order to band order.
Can anyone offer a solution to this issue?
Thanks and regards,
Zoltan.

Re: [Qgis-user] PostGIS raster access in QGIS using DBManager (or wktraster)
Jose Carlos, Thanks for your answers. I know the option to Add to Canvas for a raster layer that shows up in the DBManager interface. Problem is that I connect over the network, and Landsat images are typically 150 Mb per band. This is why I prefer to select well-delineated areas that are reasonable in size, for which the raster selection query seem to be just the right solution. Even better would be a Add PostGIS raster layer on the left menu, that would logically go for the re-sampled pyramid layers, if available in the database, or warn when really big images would be requested [over a network connection]. As a start, I guess I will have to dig out the old version of DBManager and restore the raster functionality Guido From: qgis-user-boun...@lists.osgeo.org [mailto:qgis-user-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf Of José Carlos Martínez Llario Sent: 07 March 2014 10:45 To: qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org Subject: Re: [Qgis-user] PostGIS raster access in QGIS using DBManager (or wktraster) Hi, you just have to add the layer from db manager directly, it is working with raster too.

[Qgis-user] Beginner: How to find duplicate points with the Topology Checker plug-in
Hello All, I am a beginner using 2.0.1-Dufour on Ubuntu 12.04. I digitized a poly line into a shapefile that represents a water feature. I used Vector/Extract Nodes to create a point shapefile. I added fields to the attribute table with longitude and latitude of each point with the Field Calculator. I imported the attribute table into an MS Access database and used the Find Duplicates query wizard to find 11 pairs of duplicate points in 2052 total points. The points are needed for use with the Google Maps API. I tried the Vector/Topology Checker plug-in with a must not have duplicates rule to find the duplicate points and received a 0 errors were found message. What am I missing when using the Topology Checker plug-in? Thank you.

Re: [Qgis-user] Snap to Vertex
Hello chuck, Settings Snapping Options... Notice you can select both segments and vertex (default) or only one of option. Also, you can set tolerance in map units or in screen units (pixels). I normally prefer snap to vertex only and 5 to 10 pixel of tolerance. Don't forget to check the box to the left of the layers names to make the snapping active. Also notice the avoid intersection option that is quite useful while creating adjacent polygons.

[Qgis-user] Missing SVG's - now represented by a ? - ?
Hi List, I have a QML file I created some time ago. When I open it in QGIS now it can't find the SVG files - that's fine, it's because they're not there. My problem is that rather than not rendering the icons, what QGIS now appears to be doing is instead rendering little ? icons. I can't figure out how this is desirable (well, unless you're the Riddler I guess). Previously in this circumstance QGIS simply didn't render the missing SVG's, which was fine. But now I have a very unprofessional looking map style. I am aware I can update my QML to remove the SVG's, however it's quite large and I'd rather not have to. So my question for the list - am I the only person who preferred the old behaviour?

A picture is worth a thousand words, so I took some screenshots: I've double-checked the linking ID field for the parcels and it is always a 1:1 with the address point I have identified. However, just to be sure it wasn't something funky with the parcel base, I established a link between the address points and an aed (defibrillator) point layer that I had with the same result.

It's a tricky problem, somewhat related to number of users http://www.netmarketshare.com/operating-system-market-share.aspx?qprid=10qpcustomd=0qptimeframe=Y 10.6 share has been declining 20% over the last year (relative to itself). At what point do we cut off? I expect at some point not all the dependencies will even be buildable on the system. The only way I can see supporting a lot of versions is if it's fairly automated process. Right now there seems to be quite a bit of work by hand to keep things all in step. Or do we drop it off once the number of worldwide users is below a certain limit? Linux is the same way, Ubuntu 10.04 is about to get dropped out of new releases(if it isn't already when 14.04 comes out) and it is newer than OS X 10.6 Of course Mac users have another issue, because of hardware OS X 10.6 might be the highest they can ever go with OS X. Which only leaves one option (faced by many people with computers), do I buy new hardware or switch to recent linux and get another 5 years+ out of the machine with security patches and software upgrades. I guess technically there should be people with 3 year old machines that came with 10.6, so at least another 2-4 years of security patches from Apple. Maybe someone has a spare 10.6 machine and wants to learn from William how to make the builds on it?

Re: [Qgis-user] Installerpackage QGIS 2.2 OSX 10.6?
Building on OS X isn't hard, just tedious. The build instructions are very detailed, so anyone should be able to roll their own if needed on an older system. The last Qt 4.8.5 installer works on 10.6, and dependencies should be buildable on 10.6 for a long time. There are also OS X package managers to simplify the process. I think MacPorts is still alive, and Homebrew has become very popular. (Though they can cause trouble if you also compile software from scratch outside their environments.) Note: if you read my blog about it, in my interpretation of the hardware maintenance it's the hardware that Apple supports, and it's the latest version of the system software that the hardware supports that is maintained, not the original version of the system. So 10.6 is dead now. Which has been verified in the latest security update that was for 10.7+. I've mentioned my policy in the past and have been following it for years. It's just hitting a little hard this time because of the long life Snow Leopard had.
