[Qgis-user] Problem with European Drought Observatory WCS layer

2012-10-19 Thread nikos ves
Dear List, 


I am trying to add a wcs layer from the European Drought Observatory
(EDO [1] ) server, but I am unable to do so. The layer is being reported
as invalid(?). 

I'm not really familiar with wcs layers so I don't know if Im doing
something wrong in my part.

Maybe someone can cross check if the wcs layer is operational ?


The link for "DescribeCoverage" attribute  is the following: 

http://edo.jrc.ec.europa.eu/edov2/php/ows.php?SERVICE=WCS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=DescribeCoverage&COVERAGE=Combined_Drought_Indicator


Thank you,

Nick

[Qgis-user] Ubuntu 12.04 And Qgis 1.8 - Broken Depencies

2012-07-10 Thread nikos ves
I'm forwarding this from [1] so if anyone can help and the enquirer 

"""
Has anyone had any luck with getting QGIS working on Ubuntu 12.04? I
have tried the stable and unstable versions and with not luck. I also
get the following:

"Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

[Qgis-user] Create monthly images from fixed timely images

2012-06-22 Thread nikos ves
Hey all,

Sorry for cross emailing in two lists, but I believe the issue is
interesting for both users. 

Is there a method that can create monthly LST images from MOD11a2 ? The
problem arises if you consider that MOD11a2 gets released every 8days
and you want to create a monthly image combining n*8days accordingly. 

eg:

 month1_image: 1st-day + 9th-day + 17th-day + 25th-day + 6/8*33rd-day 
 month2_image: 2/8*33rd-day + 41st-day  and so on

as you can see it gets quite complicated find the weighting values for
first and last input days because as the example shows 33rd-day goes for
the first month as well for the 2nd month.

Anyone had crossed into this kind of problem before? If so how did you
solve it? 

With regards,
Ves Nikos

Hey Jesus,


When you say " The point is that there is people able to work with QGIS
in Ubuntu and .mdb files " what do you mean?

You can't open the files? Qgis doesn't recognize them? 
Can you be more specific on what seems to be the problem?

[Qgis-user] qgis, gdal and hdf (ubuntu)

2010-11-12 Thread nikos ves


For those wondering qgis cant open hdf files, because the Ubuntu repo
flavor or gdal isn't compiled with hdf support. You have to compile it
yourself and then recompile qgis with your custom build. 

That made me wondering:

Why qgis needs  gdal to be defined on compilation time? Isn't possible
to use gdal as external lib, and as so being able to 'change the path'
through options or something similar - that would be easier (for me) to
just point to the version of gdal i like.

bob, sorry for the late return, your email has been misplaced with some
other emails and i didnt notice it until now. 

your shapefile is not distorted, you just see it with the default CRS,
which is something else that your target crs. 

I suggest that you create a new project (File-> New Project), then open
the project properties (File ->Project properties) tick
"on-the-fly-reprojection" and on the list select the appropriate NAD83
(HARN) CRS 

!BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET CONFUSED, THERE ARE MANY NAD83 (HARN) CRSs, AND
EACH ONE IS VALID FOR THE AREA AND ONLY FOR THAT AREA YOUR DATA WERE
TAKEN FROM.
 
FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOUR DATA SHOW AREAS FROM WEST ALABAMA (NAD83(HARN)
EPSG:2759) YOU CANNOT USE THE CRS OF EAST ALABAMA (NAD83(HARN)
EPSG:2760) FOR THOSE. THEY MIGHT HAVE THE SAME NAME, BUT THEY"RE NOT THE
SAMES.

ITS UP TO YOU TO FIND OUT WITH WHAT CRS YOUR DATA WERE CAPTURED, AND USE
IT YOUR PROJECT  

once you know your CRS you can reproject to a different CRS using
Vector->Data Management tools-> Export to a new projection"

open the qml file, on line 4 (or around that line) and you can see
something like the following:

 " CODE_00 "

in my example, CODE_00 is the attribute table where the qml takes the
data from. Check over your qml file, create (and populate) the

Re: [Qgis-user] corine land cover shapefile...

2010-07-02 Thread nikos ves
here's a qml with the legent of every class of CORINE according eea's
legend file.(attach1)

in your shape file, make a new attribute table, and name it(!) CODE_00
(!) and populate it with the codes without any dots. eg class 1.1.1
should become 111 at column CODE_00. 
This is important: name it CODE_00 otherwise it wont work, and the
length should be at least 3 chars long.
The reason for this is that the original corine shapefiles already comes
with like that. 
Don't forget to save after making the column.

After that load the qml. I haven't applied the official colours but if
needed I can take some time to tune it.

Also i attach an ods (open document spreadsheet) with the classes,
labels RGB colour values and etc taken from eea site.

With grass:
using the contour:

r.contour input=sl...@slope output=valid levels=40 cut=0 --overwrite

Using the mapcalc:

r.mapcalc "valid_raster" = "( "sl...@slope" > 40)"

*Pro tip: Before you start, set the resolution at about ~200m otherwise

I agree, that will take much less time. 

Contour function for me always takes huge amount of time for me,
especially if its complex, like slope.

There are unlimited ways to extract information from data, you just need
to use your imagination and be a little patience until you learn your
way around!  

Qgis also has a map calculator plugin as well. You can find it, as
always, using the plugin manager

Raster tools will come as default with the next version of qgis which
will be out in a couple of months.

For now you can install the Raster tools, with the Plugin manager.
Search them under the name gdal tools or something similar. (try gdal or
raster, I dont remember atm)

make a contour representing the slope percentage. then select the

It's not my plugin, so I wont judge if it needs to be fixed or not.

But for as I see, its not a valid bug. What happens if there are two
diff polygons of the same attribute? for example, if the user wants
A:1/2/3, B:3/4/5, A:6/7/8 instead of A:1/2/3/6/7/8 ( points (1 2 3) and
(6 7 8) are far away from each other)

An option to be more strict with the topology, so we all be happy, would
be nice, no doubt.

But for now, what you need is merging two shapes into one, and i almost
certain that there's a tool for that

but everytime i get a huge "GRASS NOT FOUND" slap

Im trying to make a buffer zone of the shoreline (of greece) with a

I've stumbled in two problems: 
1) Making a buffer zone of that kind is extremely slowly. The right way

Training areas, to my knowledge, are AOI's (usually polygons) that refer
to the same attribute. If you need to make then, then you need to
digitize them manually. There no software in the world that could make
training areas for you! You train your computer to do the computation,
not the other way around!
 
But, if you mean classification, i don't think qgis can do that. You

That qualifies as a bug. saving as SVG has the same issue

I've fix it so, is there anyone who can sent me info on how to sent a
patch for it?

A bit off topic, but

http://www.postgisonline.org/ has only three tutorials on postgis
examples. If anyone has any similar links, please can email them (or at
the list) to me?

Ye i had some crashes (random mostly) when adding data and/or editing
from databases. Im using SVN version. Console output was saying  about
"segmentation fault". Nothing else of value that could point at the
problem.

Re: [Qgis-user] Passare dei parametri all'apertura del progetto Qgis

2010-05-20 Thread nikos ves
If I understood correctly you're trying to add data(objects) from
different users that are projected in different projection system. And
naturally they don't fit together because one's X is the others Y...

If thats the case, 

Its always better to work in a fixed projection system. Choose one and
stay in that projection. If you have data that are using another
projection, you can use "Export To another Projection" (Vector->Data
managment-> Export To another Projection" and muster all your data in
the within one projection.

Having said that...

QGIS supports "on-the-fly" transformations.In my experience at least, 
SVN version is a bit buggy at the moment, but some people suggested that
if you state from the start your desired projection system, and enable,
at that point "on-the-fly" transformation, you will get very results. To
summarize: 1) File->New Project (Close without saving),then 2)
File->Project Properties... ,3) Coordinate Reference System (CRS), 4)
Make sure you check the Enable 'on the fly' CRS tranformation + choose
the crs of your love.
And enjoy!

Just test it, It successfully made a line across all the points, except
for the inconvenience that is making just ONE line.

Unfortunately, as I've found, QGIS lacks vertex-level editing (delete
multiple vertices in line/polygon; move multiple vertices) at least in
v1.1 which seems to be the case in 1.5.

This would also work, but the why bother, since already has the points
in a csv file?

One problem I see, is multiple polygones merged in One big messy
polygone due to hte fact that it cant "understand" where a polygon ends
and the next one starts. If that case arise  a little editing comes
handy.

The whole point as I see it is to minimize doing double work
 
 
Ofcouse if the plugin is inadequate for the job, the next option is to
shape the polygons from, as Mark said, the points mir already has
utilizing the snap feature

You can use the "Points2One" plugin which makes the task you need.
As input takes a point layer and as output gives a polygon or a
polyline. In your case you can choose polygon.

Be careful with the order of the points, otherwise you might get funny
results. 

eg  |1 2|  is fine , but
|4 3|

|1 2| will intersect with itself, making two triangles!  
|3 4|

[Qgis-user] Qgis + GRASS prefix: Im so anoyed!

2010-05-08 Thread nikos ves
Hi list

Im s annoyed  by this:

Im building grass from source, and I install it to a directory inside
my /home (to be exact /home//grass7 )


What should i put as grass prefix in ccmake when I compiling qgis?

I tried /home//grass7/grass-7.0.svn
and /home//grass7/grass-7.0/lib 

but everytime i get a huge "GRASS NOT FOUND" slap

Anyone who made it work that can shed some light?
