Hi today someone asked me where to invest public development funds enhancing some topology check instruments (not necessarily QGIS)
they have the doubt about if was better invest in Topology Checher or Geometry Checker (or something else) would make sense to invest merging the two plugins, new geometry engine for Geometry Checker with the UI and use cases of the Topology Checker? regards, Luigi Pirelli ************************************************************************************************** * Boundless QGIS Support/Development: lpirelli AT boundlessgeo DOT com * LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/luigipirelli * Stackexchange: http://gis.stackexchange.com/users/19667/luigi-pirelli * GitHub: https://github.com/luipir * Mastering QGIS: https://www.packtpub.com/application-development/mastering-qgis ************************************************************************************************** On 8 October 2015 at 16:23, Sandro Mani <[email protected]> wrote: > > > On 08.10.2015 16:19, Giovanni Manghi wrote: >>>>> >>>>> We also should move the first one to the analysis library, so that the >>>>> routines are accessible by plugins and processing framework....
