Matthieu, Thanks for your input!
I will change the project CRS by default but make it optional. Do you have a xml file for the TMS of the Global Forest Change, or any info on what server it uses or at least the path? While working on it I realized the power of the caching - I am taking advantage of that and setting the proper cache directory. cheers Etienne On Mon, Apr 7, 2014 at 11:00 PM, Mathieu Pellerin <[email protected]>wrote: > Nice, few comments (based on my previous uses of the GDAL TMS mini-driver): > - your plugin should make sure the loaded layer is assigned the proper > projection (mostly pseudo-mercator); failing to do so will leave must users > unable to understand why the TMS rendering fails > - that would also switch OTF reprojection on when needed > - consider adding TMS of the Global Forest Change (see > http://www.earthenginepartners.appspot.com/science-2013-global-forest for > data source, and > https://www.flickr.com/photos/60284107@N00/11096344994/in/pool-qgis-screenshotsfor > in-QGIS example) > > The GDAL TMS driver is in many ways a superior solution to OpenLayers; it > works perfectly fine with the multi-thread rendering, can be exported via > qgis composer, caches the tiles, etc. > > Math > > > > On Tue, Apr 8, 2014 at 4:45 AM, Etienne Tourigny > <[email protected]>wrote: > >> I have put together a simple plugin to load a number of TMS layers using >> the GDAL TMS mini-driver [1].
