Simon In short: gvSIG 1.11 has an awful integration of SEXTANTE (in fact, it has some sort of a fork of one part of SEXTANTE...do not ask me why) and crashes all the time...
Use 1.10 or CE, or wait for 1.12 which is likely to be much better By the way, that video is not mine, but is a nice one :))) Regards Victor El día 30 de marzo de 2012 16:39, Simon Cropper <[email protected]> escribió: > Hi, > > I have been trying to get create a DEM based on a contour shapefile as > outlined in Victor's video. > > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0-_ny4Cj9U > > Initially the process baulked because the contour data was in 3D and > Sextante did not process the file correctly.
