Re: [Qgis-developer] QGIS MapServer and jQuery OpenLayer Client for Mobile Devices
Hi Noli,
QGIS server and QGIS webclient can be regarded as two separate
projects. While we try to integrate the two better, there is no reason
why you cannot develop something in parallel with a different framework.
The reason why I went with ExtJS, GeoExt and OpenLayers is that there
is a community of governmental organizations around these frameworks in
Switzerland, where I work. This way we can share costs and knowledge.
As to mobile frameworks the same group decided to sponsor OpenLayers to
improve mobile device support. This is now available as part of
OpenLayers 2.11. We decided that we will be using the Sencha framework
(instead of jquery mobile), because it is from the same
company/community like ExtJS and also GeoExt will most likely be using
the Sencha framework.
I expect to start working on a mobile client in parallel to QGIS
webclient (we could name it QGIS mobile client) in autumn this year if
someone wants to join the effort.
Regarding the WMS layer of gis.uster.ch: you should see all you need in
the GetCapabilities request listed at http://gis.uster.ch/ - it really
contains all the information you need to later issue GetMap,
GetFeatureInfo, GetLegendGraphic or GetPrint requests. Note that this is
a raster based WMS - it is not a WFS. Here is one link to a
GetCapbilities request:
http://gis.uster.ch/cgi/qgis_mapserv.fcgi?map=/home/www/projekte/av/grundplan_av.qgsservice=WMSRequest=GetCapabilities
Hope this helps,
Andreas

Hi,

I like to use QGIS Mapserver as server for Mobile Devices (i.e. iPad,
Android tablet, Meego tablet, HP WebOS tablet, etc) using jQuery, not
ExtJS (Sencha Touch) since I need local Spatialite support for these
devices.
Again, I like to use jQuery instead of ExtJS as webclient for QGIS
Mapser.
Now, how can I utilise QGIS Mapserver for these mobile webclients?
Andreas, what would be the right access to WMS layer in QGIS
Mapserver (WMS)?
~~~
var base = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
Medford Streets Buildings,
/geoserver/wms,

Generic
map = new OpenLayers.Map('map');
var wms = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
OpenLayers WMS,
http://labs.metacarta.com/wms/vmap0;,
{layers: 'basic,ground_01'}
);
http://vasir.net/blog/openlayers/openlayers-tutorial-part-2-layers/
For example, this ZonePlan layer in http://gis.uster.ch/webgis/?
http://gis.uster.ch/webgis/production/index.shtml?map=/home/www/projekte/raumplanung/raumplanung.qgsformat=image/jpegvisibleLayers=Gestaltungspl%C3%A4ne%20Beschriftung,Gemeindegrenze,Sondernutzungen,Sondernutzungen%20Bauzonen%20mit%20Gestaltungsplanpflicht,Differenzierte%20L%C3%A4rmempfindlichkeitsstufe,Nutzungszonen,UEP%20%282009%29
I just like to know the WMS layers, not the windowing ExtJS toolkit
to
render the whole thing.
Thanks.

Re: [Qgis-developer] qgis-mapserver: user authentication
Hi all After some thinking and discussions, it seems to me integrating the authentication directly in QGIS server does not have the same flexibility compared to a component that sits between webserver and WMS. E.g. if there is a WFS integration into QGIS webclient (as we discussed in Lisbon), authentication inside the WMS does not help. I'm not experienced with the software listed in Pirmins mail (e.g. if everything requires a Java server). If there is a lightweight component for access restriction, it could be an approach to bundle it together with QGIS server to make it easier for the user. Regards, Marco Am Dienstag, 14.

Is anyone working on that, or willing to collaborate on a mainstream solution? what we need to develop is quite simple (to explain). Users should be able to register/login in the webclient (users data stored in a geometryless table in the qgis project?), then, depending on what user group the user belong, show certain layers/groups in the TOC of the web client. User data (name, address, etc.) should be stored after the login to allow use them in the print layouts. One way or another we will have to develop something like that, so we would prefer to do it the right way, upstream and in a way that can be useful to as much people as possible.

Re: [Qgis-developer] QGIS MapServer and jQuery OpenLayer Client for Mobile Devices
Hi Andreas, Thanks again for your reply. The reason why I went with ExtJS, GeoExt and OpenLayers is that there is a community of governmental organizations around these frameworks in Switzerland, where I work. This way we can share costs and knowledge. For sure I will go for ExtJS, GeoExt and Openlayers for PC. No question about that. In fact, I like to use ExtJS or Sencha Touch in the mobile as well. As to mobile frameworks the same group decided to sponsor OpenLayers to improve mobile device support. This is now available as part of OpenLayers 2.11. We decided that we will be using the Sencha framework (instead of jquery mobile), because it is from the same company/community like ExtJS and also GeoExt will most likely be using the Sencha framework. The only reason at the moment for I am using jQuery mobile is, I am able to use Spatialite local server with DOM and WebKit in iOS device (hopefully in Android, etc as well, Meego tablet is probably easier). It is hybrid application. It is OL script is enclosed in an Native app. I could do the same with Sencha Touch but again no Spatialite or Sqlite full support, just local web storage. I expect to start working on a mobile client in parallel to QGIS webclient (we could name it QGIS mobile client) in autumn this year if someone wants to join the effort. OK. I will help you on package it, making it a Native app in iOS, Android and Meego. Sencha touch - kitchen sink demo runs as a Native app in iOS SDK 4.3. I am using iOS 4.2 at moment. Regarding the WMS layer of gis.uster.ch: you should see all you need in the GetCapabilities request listed at http://gis.uster.ch/ - it really contains all the information you need to later issue GetMap, GetFeatureInfo, GetLegendGraphic or GetPrint requests.

Here is one link to a GetCapbilities request: http://gis.uster.ch/cgi/qgis_mapserv.fcgi?map=/home/www/projekte/av/grundplan_av.qgsservice=WMSRequest=GetCapabilities Ich habe keine anhung, how to use this. OK. I will look at it later on. At the moment, I am concentrating in getting my WKT from Spatilalite queries to render to OL. I have problem isolating the WKT data column so I can pass it to textarea then to WKT passer for OL map render. Thanks a lot.

Hi, I wrote a PYTHON plugin that does a simple feature select on a QgsVectorLayer: pnt = coordinates of mouse click on map myLayer= QgsVectorLayer Object tolerance = 1 rectangle = QgsRectangle() rectangle.setXMinimum (pnt.x() - tolerance) rectangle.setXMaximum (pnt.x() + tolerance) rectangle.setYMinimum (pnt.y() - tolerance) rectangle.setYMaximum (pnt.y() + tolerance) myLayer.select(rectangle , True) in QGIS 1.6 this code works with both shapefiles and postgis layers, in QGIS 1.7 it works ONLY in postgis layers, on shapefile layers it always returns 0 features.___ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
