Dear list, We are planning to use QGIS (2.0) in an introductory GIS course at our University. In one of the exercises we would like the students to find the distance from each point in one dataset to its nearest line in another dataset.
We have suggested that the students use the v.distance function in GRASS for the purpose. This works fine in the GRASS plugin, but this plugin is quite cumbersome to use, so we were hoping that we could use the function through Processing instead. We were glad to find the function in Processing, but unfortunately, it does not work (see http://hub.qgis.org/issues/5954) Since this is such a useful GIS function, I hope that there is a good and simple QGIS way of doing this.
