You can use GeoPackage for multi-editing but not directly. GeoDiff ( https://github.com/MerginMaps/geodiff) is a low level library to handle the changes. Mergin Maps is a platform built around that. You can install the QGIS plugin and then users can make changes to the files and sync the data. The

In a previous job, when we didn't use postgres, I would create the template QGS (with all the styles, print layouts & etc ) and generally have the data as ArcGIS Rest Servers, WFS OR a discipline specific gpkg that was only read that once they copied, they could edit. I had this set up for each dis

Hi Stewart - Postgres is definitely the right choice if several users needs write access to the same layer at the same time. (I can barely believe I write the next sentence..) If the municipality already has a MS SQL Server installation, you can create spatial layers on this server that can

Hi Stewart, For Multi-User data editing I definitely recommend using PostgreSQL (the server should be in the same LAN than the clients editing). Geopackage isn't designed for multi-user editing. Two users using Geopackage "read only" should work though. The QGIS project can be stored in Geop

I have data stored on a municipal server.Can I have two users, each on their own computer, access the same .QGS project file (as well as the same data on the municipal server)? Is that what a GeoPackage is for?  Or is Geopackage just for the data and not for the project file (QGS)? Or do I use P
