way to resolve this without another two days of head beating? no, the plugin is not mantained, and there is a missing dependency on Windows (rpy2) so the plugin does not work, as any other plugin we had that used to work with R (Home Ranges, ManageR).

Re: [Qgis-user] sextante saga
Hi Matteo Hi, I also work on a ubuntu 12.04 and what you said is true. Repositories update Saga up to 2.1 that doesn't work with sextante. I solved installing the packages of 12.10. You can use Saga as standalone and via Sextante. Go on synaptic and remove the 4 packages: -saga -libsaga-dev - pytho-saga - libsaga Then go here http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ and look for the same 4 packages you removed, but choose those for quantal or raring (you will see version 2.0.8 available) Just download them as deb package and let your ubuntu install all the stuff. thanks for the tip, but it doesn 't work for me as this packages are built with the old libgdal library. Even if it worked we need anyway a better solution as most of the users need a simpler and more straightforward way to install the packages. cheers! ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
Re: [Qgis-user] sextante saga
THere is is that problem, but it currently affects just a few algorithms (althought it might get worse if there are more diffs between the syntax of other algoithms). I guess that is a minor issue compared with some people not being able to use SAGA at all. Another problem is that it seems that most of Linux users (Ubuntu and derivate) are without a working SAGA package. For example in ubuntugis there is no precise (LTS) SAGA 2.0.8 package, and in the Johan Van de Wauw PPA repository there is SAGA 2.1 but it is not working (see http://hub.qgis.org/issues/8289#note-3 ), what/how we can do/help? ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

Re: [Qgis-user] Crash: merge shapefiles

I've looked for a bulk process to create these but without luck Do I need prj files if so, how can I create a load of them? in QGIS master you can use SEXTANTE to batch process files, so you can use the reproject layer tool, and get a copy of your shapes with a proper .prj Then to merge the shapes you can use QGIS, but I agree that is very (very) slow for large shapes or large number of shapes.

Well, GDAL 1.7.3 was one of the first efforts to read postgis raster, back in the release candidate days. A few months before the release of postgis 2.0 there was a major change in the raster storage and some code was discontinued. GDAL 1.9.0 was the first release after postgis 2.0 was released so it's the first version that is compatible. Fortunately, vector data is a mature standard inside postgis and didn't suffer any major changes that could break previous working code. Even though we were all notified by these changes, some of our previous work doesn't work with the current version. It was a huge improvement in raster storage and metadata retrieval, so we have to cope with it. I'm releasing the new plugin version with the weak loader tonight. It should be enough to upload one untiled raster with no overviews to the database. I'm using ubuntugis' repositories. The gdal package available on it is version 1.9.1 so you might want to try those binaries, since they work pretty well. All the best, Mauricio C.

I'm using QGIS 1.8, postgis 2.0, postgres 9.1.5, gdal 1.9.1 on ubuntu 12.04. Sorry for my ignorance but what GDAL version is being released with linux mint? I couldn't find anywhere online. The plugin heavily relies on GDAL to perform the visualization so you need the latest GDAL available to get a decent performance. From my first tests I can say that GDAL 1.9.1 has greatly improved performance and the next versions should improve even further. The fastest visualization that I have achieved with version 1.9.1 is with single tiled raster files. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get GDAL to use overviews so far, but Jorge (GDAL's postgis raster developper) is researching on this subject. GDAL versions bellow 1.9 should not be able to read postgis 2.0. Unfortunately, since postgis 2.0 release, the python loader was discontinued in postgis source. Recently I have started to make the necessary changes starting from the old code to get it to work. I don't know if this is going to be a good solution but it seems possible. I'm trying to avoid the platform-dependent compilation that postgis' raster loader has in version 2.0 now that it's being entirely written in C. In the future I should probably release a simple uploader with the plugin, without all those options until I'm certain that everything is working

So, I load a xy temporary layer in a 3004 crs project and I save it as a shp (3004). Then I change the crs to 4326 and I use the transformation manager (transformation tool) pluigin to adjust the on the fly reprojection from 3004 to 4326 based on the NTV2 grid file. that's not how transformation tool (TT) works. In TT create a transformation selecting the two CRSs (call them A and B or start and arrive, as you want) and the method (towgs84 parameters ot ntv2 grids) and save it. Then close TT and add normally your layers. Depending on your project CRS and the CRS of the layers you are adding, if the two CRSs will fit one on the transformations you defined in TT, then a dialog will pop up asking if you want to apply one of those transformation to the layer you are adding. cheers -- Giovanni -- ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
