Hello everyone! First of all, let me introduce myself briefly: my name is Eurico Nicacio, I am a brazilian Cartographic Engineer graduated by Military Engineering Institute [Instituto Militar de Engenharia - IME] in 2010 and, nowadays, I am a MSc Candidate in Geodetic Sciences in the Geodetic Sciences Post-Graduation Program at Federal University of Paraná [Universidade Federal do Paraná - UFPR] with a focus in Physical Geodesy. I will receive my MSc title up to the end of this year, and I have a 5+ years of work experience in surveying, Python programming, GIS and field engineering.
I am also a huge open source enthusiast. I have developed some integration tools in GIS community benefit - a standalone application and a QGIS Plugin, both of them available at my GitHub account. I have been talking to Alexander Bruy - through whom I got in brief contact with Victor Olaya, Serge Rey and Anita Graser - about my wish to contribute with OSGeo previously, during and after GSoC 2017 since mid January, and he has been a great helper and pre-mentor in all aspects. We have been trying to design a GSoC project on Python initiatives for QGIS improvement - our main idea has migrated from "General Processing improvements" to "PySAL library integration to QGIS Processing" so far, following a tip at the Processing paper that Anita and Victor published in 2015. I have used PySAL a couple of times and it seemed exceptional all of the times. And as I said to Alexander, it would be a great pleasure and honor for me having the possibility to help implementing such a important and interesting library into QGIS Processing tool. At this moment, we would like to share this main idea with you - PySAL library integration to QGIS Processing - and get your contribution and opinions on this theme. As we discussed before, it seems to have a good relation between work/time compatibility with GSoC and positive community impact. I am looking forward to your feedback and suggestions. Thank you all in advance for the support.
