Re: [Qgis-user] Pyspatialite installation issues on Fedora 25

[Eric Goddard]

Hi William, I had the same problem on Fedora 25 and solved it with
comment 5 at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1340535.
Create a pyspatialite.py file in ~/.qgis2/python with the following
contents:

from sqlite3 import *

def connect(*args, **kwargs):
import sqlite3
db = sqlite3.connect(*args, **kwargs)
db.enable_load_extension(True)
db.load_extension("mod_spatialite")
return db


and processing should work.

Hope that helps!

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS Viewer

[Eric Goddard]

If you're using the OSGeo4W installer, you could uninstall the filegdb
api so that QGIS has to use the OpenFileGDB driver (which is read
only) to view file geodatabases. The QGIS stand-alone installer just
has the OpenFileGDB driver, so nothing extra is required there.

Re: [Qgis-user] Lookup Tables in File GDB?

[Eric Goddard]

You're correct, the feature class is using a lookup table (domains in
ArcGIS) that the ogr drivers can't access as far as I know. If you can load
the gdb in ArcMap, you can use the Domain to Table tool (
http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/10.3/tools/data-management-toolbox/domain-to-table.htm)
to export the lookup codes/values for loading into a Postgres table.

Hope that helps!

Re: [Qgis-user] creating a python plugin to autopopulate some of the Georeferencer properties

[Eric Goddard]

Problem solved, triggering from the raster menu didn't work, but going
through the raster toolbar did work.

for action in iface.rasterToolBar().actions():
if action.objectName() == 'mActionRunGeoref':
georef = action

georef.trigger()

Re: [Qgis-user] creating a python plugin to autopopulate some of the Georeferencer properties

[Eric Goddard]

Thanks Nathan, looking forward to 2.16 :)

In the meantime I'm working on a plugin similar to the ArkPlan
georeferencer (using the GeorefGraphicsView from ArkPlan) , but I'm
going to temporarily use the hacky solution until I can get that
finished, which brings me to my next question:

If I I iterate over iface.rasterMenu().actions() and print each item's
objectName, the only ones that show up are
mActionShowRasterCalculator, mActionShowAlignRasterTool, and settings;
the rest are empty strings. If I print each item's text, I get the
menu text for each submenu on the rasterMenu, so the Georeferencer
shows up as "&Georeferencer". How do I access the actions on the
submenus within the rasterMenu()?

Just out of curiosity I did the same iteration over
iface.rasterMenu().children(), which lists only one QMenu object
(Terrain Analysis).

Thanks for all of the feedback!

Re: [Qgis-user] creating a python plugin to autopopulate some of the Georeferencer properties

[Eric Goddard]

Awesome, thanks John. We have about the same number of images to georef so
that will be a big help. I looked at the georeferencer code which is how I
discovered that some of the properties were stored in QSettings. I'm not
too familiar with c++ though, but since the qgis api can be used to do
custom applications I was hoping for a constructor for the georeferencer
that I could use.

It looks like I can make sure most of the settings are configured
properly using QSettings(), but still not sure how to go about opening
the georeferencer with an image and the output and report fields
pre-populated.

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for the feedback. The script solution won't really work for us since
we don't have pre-existing GCPs to use in the scripts. We need to use the
georeferencer so we can place and make adjustments to the GCPs.

[Qgis-user] creating a python plugin to autopopulate some of the Georeferencer properties

[Eric Goddard]

Hi All,

I'm working on a project that involves georeferencing many historic
images. We'll have several people working in tandem, so to speed
things up and reduce errors I'd like to create a qgis python plugin
that, based on the source folder they select, auto populates the gdal
transformation settings such as the transformation type, resampling
method, target srs, output image and report paths.

I'm having some trouble working through the QGIS API documentation
though; does anyone know if it is possible to launch the georeferencer
window and set some of the transformation settings from python? So far
I've only been able to find examples of opening a processing tool's
GUI from python.

Thanks!
Eric

Re: [Qgis-user] Stacking Landsat Bands

[Eric Goddard]

Hi Jonathan, Did you try the GDAL merge tool (Raster -> Miscellaneous
-> Merge)? If you check the layer stack box it will create a multiband
image with any number of input files.

Re: [Qgis-user] Partitioning an Ortho?

[Eric Goddard]

Keep in mind that you need to have a license to write to sid files. If you
only have the license to read sids, when you partition your existing 4GB
sid, the output will most likely be geotiff which isn't as compressed as
sid so the overall file size may be larger.

Re: [Qgis-user] Problem opening .GDB (v 10.1) using QGIS

[Eric Goddard]

In another thread about QGIS and FileGeodatabases, there is a link to
the OpenFileGDB driver [1]. It mentions a different type of
compression that the fileGDB API doesn't support. It doesn't appear
that the FWA_LINEAR_BOUNDARIES_SP.gdb has that type of compression so
it should be able to load in theory.

I tried opening the GDB in QGIS and got the red bar at the top with
the invalid data message like you. Once that failed, we both used the
ogrinfo (QGIS uses the OGR library to read FileGDBs) command line tool
to see if OGR could open the geodatabase. It said it could, but it is
failing because it did not report detailed information about the
feature classes in the the database like it should have since the
'-al' flag was used. Since OGR can't open the file geodatabase, QGIS
can't read it.

Re: [Qgis-user] Problem opening .GDB (v 10.1) using QGIS

[Eric Goddard]

I have gdal built with FileGDB support and I was unable to open the
geodatabase; QGIS gave an invalid datasource error. Arcpy reports that
it is indeed a version 10/10.1 database though. Using

ogrinfo -al FWA_LINEAR_BOUNDARIES_SP.gdb

reports that it was successfully opened:
INFO: Open of `FWA_LINEAR_BOUNDARIES_SP.gdb'
  using driver `FileGDB' successful.

However, it should have also printed detailed information about the
feature classes in the geodatabase, which it didn't. Not sure what is
going on in the gdb. I was able to open it with ArcMap (checked the
version with arcpy).

Re: [Qgis-user] Selecting rasters with vector layer

[Eric Goddard]

Hi Asher,

Sorry, I didn't read the full GDAL page regarding ECW support
(http://www.gdal.org/frmt_ecw.html). ECW is a proprietary format owned
by intergraph. GDAL allows reading and writing of ECW files, but in
order to write ECW files you have to have a licensing key from
Intergraph. On Linux, when configuring the the ECW plugin it asks for
the key, and if the user doesn't have one it is configuring in
read-only mode. I'm assuming you used the OSGeo4Win installer, which I
think configures the ECW support as read only by default. If you do
have a key, I'm not sure how you would go about setting up GDAL ECW
support to recognize it.

>From the gdal ECW page:
The ECW 4.x SDK from ERDAS is only free for image decompression. To
compress images it is necessary to build with the read/write SDK and
to provide an OEM licensing key at runtime which may be purchased from
ERDAS.


Does the third party software you have to use not support any other formats?

Yes, you should be able to choose ECW from the files of type drop down in
the output file selection dialog and select ECW.

Re: [Qgis-user] Selecting rasters with vector layer

[Eric Goddard]

Hi asher, if you go to raster -> miscellaneous, there is a menu entry
called build virtual raster catalog. You can use that to virtually mosaic
all of your ECW files. This tool creates a new file you can load in as a
raster that references all of the individual ECW files to display them
seamlessly in qgis without having to spend the time to actually mosaic all
of them together. Load the resulting vrt file into qgis using add raster
and clip the vrt to your polygon layer using raster -> extraction ->
clipper.

Re: [Qgis-user] MrSID raster and QGIS in linux

[Eric Goddard]

It sounds like you didn't get all of the packages in the dependencies
section installed; many of the development packages should have been
installed with the build-essential package. bison and ncurses-dev are
also in the list and will take care of the curses error., and the
libxmu-dev package will fix the X error. Did you paste the whole chunk
of dependencies in as a single line?

Re: [Qgis-user] MrSID raster and QGIS in linux

[Eric Goddard]

You will need to remove the --with-postgres=yes and
--with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/postgresql options. As for the
lex error, you should be able to fix that by running

sudo apt-get install flex

on the command line before configuring.

The packages I use for postgres on Ubuntu 13.04 are:
postgresql-server-dev-9.1 postgresql-client postgresql-9.1
postgresql-contrib-9.1. I don't know if Ubuntu 12.04 has postgres 9.1;
it may still be on 9. Try finding the equivalent packages with
synaptic, or simply don't compile postgis if you never use it.

I would recompile gdal. Switch to the gdal source directory and run
'make clean', and then re run the ./configure, make, and make install
lines.

Re: [Qgis-user] MrSID raster and QGIS in linux

[Eric Goddard]

Hmm, I don't think you could've made it past the compiling gdal steps
if the geotiff package wasn't installed. In the cmake window for
configuring libLAS, do you have Values for GEOTIFF_INCLUDE_DIR and
GEOTIFF_LIBRARY? I have /usr/include/geotiff and /usr/lib/geotiff.so,
respectively.

Keep in mind that if you only want to compile QGIS you don't have to
compile LASzip, libLAS, or GRASS 7.

Re: [Qgis-user] MrSID raster and QGIS in linux

[Eric Goddard]

It isn't strictly true that you're crap out of luck--you just have to
download the mrsid API and register it with ldconfig. Depending on
your system, sometimes there are gdal plugins that you can then
install. This is how it is setup on Debian based systems. If there
isn't a plugin available, then you have to compile gdal with MrSid
support. Because MrSid is proprietary, gdal can't be distributed with
support built in. I wrote a guide for some friends for compiling the
GIS stack with MrSid/ECW support, but it is for ubuntu-based systems.
I'm posting the link here, perhaps it will help in getting it set up
in Fedora. Most of the actual compilation instructions should work,
but the dependencies and paths will be different.

Re: [Qgis-user] Selection tool outline color

[Eric Goddard]

Hi Lene,

I'm not concerned with the colors of the features themselves, but with the
very light gray selection box when using the select by polygon tool. It is
difficult to see what is being selected when the features have light
colors, and its always difficult to see the line on a white background. See
attached image for clarification. I've searched the web and scoured the
settings with no luck. I don't think it can be modified at this point, but
that would be a nice feature.

Eric

Hi Lene,

Hi all,

When using the selection tool in the map canvas, I can't see the light gray

Hi Anne, I ran into this issue as well. Right clicking the

Re: [Qgis-user] Executing qgis after building from git results in errors and warnings

[Eric Goddard]

For the python console, you need to install qscintilla. On 12.10 I
installed libqscintilla2-dev and python-qscintilla2. The dev package may
not be needed, but it works for me.

The python libraries are located in the $INSTALLPATH/share/qgis/python
directory. Add that directory to your python path to import pyspatialite
outside of QGIS. From within a python script you can :

import sys

sys.path.append(r"/home/tgrossen/Apps/QGIS/share/qgis/python")

from pyspatialite import dbapi2 as db


Hope that helps.

Re: [Qgis-user] Advice Please

[Eric Goddard]

This issue can be solved by acquiring an accurate reading with a sub-meter
GPS unit on your site grid's datum and using the affine transformation
tools to "move" the site grid data into a projected coordinate system based
on the difference between the GPS and site grid coordinates. The accuracy
of the transformation depends on the size of your study area. The results
were excellent when I used this process for grids a few hectares in size.


The affine transformation tools can be installed from the Plugins menu.

Re: [Qgis-user] Newbie with request for advice

[Eric Goddard]

Before you can compile the samples or compile GDAL with FGDB support you
have to link the FGDB library so the system can find it. Before running
make in the FileGDB_API/samples directory, create a text file in the
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/ to hold the path to wherever you FileGDB_API/lib folder
is located and run ldconfig to update it. On Ubuntu executing the following
lines in bash should fix it:

sudo sh -c "echo '/path/to/FileGDB_API/lib' >> /etc/ld.so.conf.d/fgdb.conf"
sudo ldconfig

after that, make should work.

Re: [Qgis-user] Possible to view/read laser (.laz/..las -files in QGIS?

liblas can be compiled with gdal support, then use las2ogr to convert the
las to a QGIS-supported vector format.

I think you're right about ld. You need to run sudo ldconfig after creating
the symlink so that make can find the correctly named library.

Hmmm, I didn't get any errors like that when I installed so I'm not sure

Re: [Qgis-user] How to compile gdal with ESRI FileGDB

[Eric Goddard]

Below are the steps I use to add File Geodatabase support to gdal. This
worked on Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit, but it doesn't use the deb source packages.
Since you have a 32-bit ubuntu install, you need to download the 32-bit
version of the FileGDB API. I tried to answer your questions as they come
up in the steps I list below, so you may want to read through the whole
thing before starting. Sorry for the length, but I hope it helps!

In terminal:

1. Change directory to wherever you downloaded the FileGDBAPI: *cd
path/to/FileGDBAPI_download*

2. extract the archive:* tar zxvf FileGDB_API_1_2-32.tar.gz* NOTE: Since
you are using 32-bit Ubuntu, you need to download the 32-bit FileGDB API.

3.You need to build the samples to make sure the API works. Change to the
FileGDB_API samples folder: *cd FileGDB_API/samples*

4. type *make*

5. Run a sample to make sure it works. Change directory to the bin folder
inside samples: *cd bin *, and then type *./Querying*. You'll get a bunch
of text in terminal, just make sure it doesn't spit out any errors.

6. If the sample runs successfully, you have a working FileGDB API and you
are ready to compile GDAL. I like to move the FileGDB API to a better
location than the downloads directory, but it is up to you. If you choose
to move it, you can use the paths listed below. If you use your own
location, change the path in the commands below to whatever you used. *sudo
mv /FileGDB_API /usr/local/*

7. Create a LD configuration file so that gdal is able to find the FGDB
libraries: *sudo echo /usr/local/FileGDB_API/lib >
etc/ld.so.conf.d/fgdb.conf *

An explanation of ld is below.

8. run ldconfig to update the linked libraries: *sudo ldconfig*

You're now ready to download and configure gdal.


1. Download gdal from http://download.osgeo.org/gdal/gdal-1.9.2.tar.gz
2. Extract the contents of the gdal archive: *tar zxvf gdal-1.9.2.tar.gz*

3. Change to the gdal directory: *cd gdal-1.9.2*

4. Now gdal needs to be configured. Your configure line may be different
from the one below depending on the options you want included, but the
important line to include is --with-fgdb=/usr/local/FileGDB_API. This is my
configure line on my system: * ./configure --with-geos=yes --with-sqlite3
--with-python --with-spatialite --with-fgdb=/usr/local/FileGDB_API
--with-postgres --with-odbc --with-libkml=yes --with-curl=yes
--with-mrsid=/usr/local/MrSID_SDK/Raster_DSDK
--with-mrsid_lidar=/usr/local/MrSID_SDK/Lidar_DSDK
--with-openjpeg=/usr/include*

The --with statements let the configuration script know what additional
modules you want to be included in the compile. When you install packages,
such as geos, from the repos the libraries are put in paths that ld (which
is a utility that links libraries so that other applications are able to
find them) knows about. When you compile by hand the general practice is to
compile to /usr/local, which sometimes ld doesn't know about by default.
You let ld know about additional paths by creating a configuration file in
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/ that contains the path of your custom compiled
libraries.

To compile GDAL with the options you want, your line might look something
like this:

*./configure --with-geos=yes --with-sqlite3 --with-python --with-spatialite
--with-fgdb=/usr/local/FileGDB_API --with-postgres --with-odbc *

After configure runs, it will give you a summary that indicates what it was
able to find. Check to make sure that there is a 'yes' beside the options
you want. If there is a no beside something you want to include, you may
need to scroll through the output and find the error to see what went wrong.


5. Now you can run make and make install. *sudo make*. When that finishes,
run *sudo make install*.

6. One more step: you need to let ld know about the gdal libraries. Since
we didn't specify a different path, the configure line above puts them in
/usr/local/lib by default. I let ld know about the libraries by adding a
local.conf file to /etc/ld.so.conf.d/. *sudo echo /usr/local/lib >
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/local.conf*

7. Run ldconfig again: *sudo ldconfig*

*
*

You should be able to open geodatabases in QGIS or any other GIS
application that uses GDAL now. I expanded on notes that I took while doing

Let me know if anything doesn't work or if clarification is needed.

Re: [Qgis-user] create a tiff multy layer

[Eric Goddard]

You can accomplish this with gdal. On QGIS 1.8.0, go to the Raster
menu -> Miscellaneous ->Merge. Select all of your input files and
check the layer stack option. The output will be a new tif image with
each of your previously independent images as a band which you can
then assign to the RGB guns by pulling up the layer properties and
clicking the symbology tab.
