[Qgis-user] Huge Raster calculator

2017-11-14 Thread Nicolas Cadieux
Hi,

Is anyone aware if the Qgis raster calculator will be able to deal with very 
large rasters in the near future? Any plans on implementing a fix soon?  If so, 
I can help in testing as I have multiple large raster sets ready to go.

For now, I am using gdal call but that is not very flexible when it comes so 
dealing with   rasters of different sizes and posting.
Cheers!

Nicolas

Hi

Yes as per my original response to you:

> You will be most welcome to join. Just understand that the event is a
‘hackfest’ mainly aimed at polishing and improving the next release of
QGIS. We generally have no formal agenda and participants generally arrive,
self organise and work on whatever they are interested in - bug fixing,
testing, writing docs, coding new features etc. There are sometimes also ad
hoc presentations about new features being worked on or interesting things
people are doing. If this sounds like something you will enjoy and derive
benefit from then we would love to have you join us. *To register, simply
add a row for yourself to the wiki page using the link you quoted below.*

[Qgis-user] Puzzling error messages when using Processing in a Python script

2017-11-14 Thread Stephen Bosch
Hi everybody,

I've written a long Python script to batch-process and compute a series of
raster layers. The script is written to run entirely outside of QGIS, which
I accomplish by importing the required  modules.

I use the processing toolbox for a number of operations, for example:

processing.runalg("grass7:r.buffer",input_layer,mg_buf,1,False,clipped_extent,0,output_layer)

For some layers, I get error messages like this:

ERROR 1: /home/user/Output/masks/mgrid_mask_buffer.tif, band 1: Failed to
compute statistics, no valid pixels found in sampling.

I used a debugger and went down as many levels as it would let me. The
error occurs when QgsRasterLayer(uri, name) is called in
/usr/share/qgis/python/plugins/processing/tools/dataobjects.py:266.

The layer in question is an eight-bit unsigned integer GeoTIFF with pixels
that are either 1 or NoData (NoData value is 255).

One might think that the GeoTIFF is the problem. However, when I open the
very same file in QGIS, I get no such error. This is true even if I use the
Python console within QGIS, set the variables in question, and run the
command
processing.runalg("grass7:r.buffer",input_layer,mg_buf,1,False,clipped_extent,0,output_layer)

Overall, my experience with the Processing toolbox has been frustrating.
It's not that I expect things to work perfectly, I understand that
open-source software is a work in progress and supporting a great variety
of external libraries and third-party software such as GDAL, GRASS and SAGA
in a unified way is no easy task.

But it is a mistake to obfuscate or block error messages. These are
essential for troubleshooting. I've invested days of development time
hunting for bugs that result in part from silent failures that result in
later errors that are totally misleading. Had the original error been
presented unadulterated right at the moment when it occurred, the cause
could have been resolved in a few minutes.

(My impression that, in an effort to make QGIS "user-friendly" and avoid
confusing beginners and laypeople, aspects critical to a professional are
hidden. At the very least it should be a simple matter to turn such
functionality on.)

I understand that the bulk of development effort is going into QGIS 3. Have
these aspects been considered? I'm referring specifically to code
transparency. QGIS really should pass on error messages originating from an
external module, tell the user in which module the error occurred, and
provide both the command that was issued and the output returned (I know
that the log messages panel already does this to some extent, but why
doesn't processing.runalg, for example?)

Having said all that, I do appreciate all the development effort that has
gone and is going into QGIS. Thank you.

Kind regards

Stephen Bosch

2017-11-14 Thread Tudorache, Marian
Hello everyone,

Last week, I have sent an email to Tim Sutton and another one to Lene Fischer 
about this event.
I am really interesting in participating.

In my preliminary discussions with my manager, he is willing to seek money from 
the company to sponsor me. So basically I do not need any funding support.
I tried to use your form 
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSea25C7UMQecQgEIIpZGHdwpqqFy6ZTEfOk64qcA0tI4aZZFA/viewform
 but it does not allow to introduce 0 Euro.
It seems the form is for who applies for support.

So I would really appreciate a firm response from organizers if my 
participation is accepted or not.
In case you accept my participation I would need a letter from you with your 
agreement eventually the program of the event.

Thank you and I am looking forward to see you there.

Hi All

We have a confirmed venue for the next QGIS get together - it is in Madeira 
from the 20-25 February 2018. If you plan on attending please head over to the 
wiki page and register your intention to be there:

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/wiki/DeveloperMeetingMadeira2018

Please also note that this time we are going to try to be a little more 
organised for helping newcomers, so I have added sections to the wiki page for 
‘Mentor streams’ - I have nominally added 4 streams but if you would like to 
host more please add a new section to the wiki page. If you are interested in 
attending one of the streams, please add your name to the appropriate section.

Lene will no doubt provide you with more details (via the wiki)  as we get 
closer to the event as will Duarte and Sara (our local organisers in Madeira).

Another important thing to note is that the cost of attending will be higher 
than usual given the more removed location and that we do not have very cheap 
accommodation available. If you intend on requesting travel assistance for the 
event, please fill out our new form as 
soon as possible. Also be aware that funds are limited so we may not be able to 
cover everyone’s costs or all costs completely - applications will be taken on 
merit with priority given to active contributors to the QGIS project.

Looking forward to seeing you all in Madeira!

Regards
