hi,

i think that the contribution to therion by examples on the wiki
are important and valuable. i tried to keep up with them but i 
probably have lost some (maybe many), but looking at it i got
the impression that it was getting less and less useful.

the best idea i can come up with is to freeze tbe on the wiki 
as it is, and put in a new version, which describes therion as
it is now (version 0.5.0), not as it was eight months ago !
any better option ?

i tried to put together a bundle with sources, html, 
and code for TBE, ... "as it is",
http://marcocorvi.altervista.org/tbe.tgz

it is good that thierry and wolfgang can work on the integration of
therion with "geography". it is something i do not know much about.

for therion -> grass I'v used the dxf output which I then converted 
externally to shp which I've imported to grass, but I also have to test 
the new shp output of therion (is on my to do list)

but I thought more on the link from grass to therion. Transformation of 
SRTM data to a rectangular grid and exporting to ascii file and finally 
importing that into therion. The new 3D viewer (loch) is much nicer than 
  nviz in grass ;-)

I also thought on how to get satellite images / airophotos and how to 
use them as overlays. For some European countries as well as for the US 
and Canada there are some nice server where you can download some data, 
but mostly you have to stitch many tiles together so that you finally 
have one big overlay for your region of interest.

more ideas?

[Therion] therion and DEMs

2007-02-06 Thread thierrygonon
Hi Wolfgang,

I'm using the Nasa SRTM DEMs, with the 90m precision. I've also used the 
functions that allows the transformation of vector level lines in DEMs, 
so that I can visualize them through nviz (include in GRASS) or Paraview 
(own installation). To import therion datas, I export them from therion 
in SQL format, but it only delivers the axis points... I still didn't 
try the new feature (ESRI Shapefile export)...

Hi Thierry,

I'm also using Grass for preparing my images and the DEM. So it would be 
nice to share experience.

I've put in the *FRENCH* section of wiki (I'm planning a translation, 
one day !!) about integration of Therion datas in OpenSource GIS, in 
this case, GRASS, and DEM use... If Wolfgang want some help...
I could help Marco, but don't have many time !!
