Hi Scott, Thank you for OGC's openness to discuss ideas for reviewing standardisation of LiDAR and other point cloud data. I have informed our LiDAR colleagues to be in contact with you directly to discuss ideas further . It is also good to know that there will be Standards Openness ad hoc sess

I completely understand Daniel, I think a "star" belittles the amount of work (and operational change) involved in meeting OSGeo's requirements. If it helps I am not talking about diluting incubation, instead opening up to more projects (by forgoing the requirement to have a mentor). All projects

I think this is a good idea and I like the transparency. We might want both a verbose and a compact presentation of their progress. For example if you listed all the projects (like: one line for each) it would be nice to be able to rank them or show what their progress is toward completing thei

hm, what about replacing the anonymous stars by concrete fulfilments? A project might earn fulfilments, such as "has PC", "successful code review", etc. All it would require is to boil down the requirements into a 1-digit number of sections, each one earning one named "star" then. My main argument

I think the idea would be that an "Incubated Project" would have meet all the basic stars. Obviously the steps that get you to be "incubated" are the same steps that a project have to achieve to get stars. It seems like there are goals to get you to "incubated" and then goals to get you to "gra

I'm not sure I like diluting the "Incubated Project" status by turning it into a star rating in which incubated and non-incubated projects are mixed. Incubated projects have taken steps to review their code and adjust their way to operate to meet several requirements, and just a set of stars

I think this type of system makes a lot of sense especially if you tie the achievement of stars to completing the various requirements of incubation and graduation. -Steve On 3/5/2015 6:18 AM, Jachym Cepicky wrote: Bart, that needs to be discussed but as example: yes, 1 star for current labs

Hi Davin, you can use the semi-automatic classification plugin in QGIS to do a DOS atmospheric correction (http://fromgistors.blogspot.com/ here you can find descriptions as well as tutorials). This plugin is also available as a VM so you do not have to use QGIS. But to use the plugin within QGIS
