Subject: Re: [udig-devel] geopaparazzi import and new Document View

Hi Jody, Naz,
I was thinking about the Doc View (still not able to review it though)
and geopaparazzi.
We are running into our deadline; so let me know if you cannot review it today.

The secondary point was to have a PSC member (other then me) review Naz's work
and nominate him for full commit access. While we can point to a couple small
pull requests he has completed, this is the first significant amount of work 
suitable
for review.
uDig now supports full Geopaparazzi data import from field surveys.
There are two datatypes that are not handled as I would love to see
them handled:
- pictures taken: right now they are placed near the shapefile of
points that have in the attribute table their relative path (i.e.
name)
- survey forms: those are json texts that could be easily represented
as html and might contain images to show

I am wondering if this could all be taken into the Doc View. How
difficult would it be for me to attach during the import the above
objects programmatically to the shapefiles?
It should be fine, in general as a GeoResource should "resolveTo" the the 
correct interface to
publish the documents it wants listed in the document view.

To try things out right now you can just open the Document property page and 
configure your shapefile
to mark the attributes that contain image files and Document View will work 
right away.

(This is also just a couple keys in the IGeoResource persisted properties, so 
you can fill
them in as part of your import as well, of fill in a shapefile.properties which 
provides
more extensive control).

Jody
