Re: [Qgis-developer] QGIS to ArcGIS Map Package

2015-05-16 Thread Stefan Keller
Hi

Map packages include a map document (.mxd) and the data referenced by
the map layers packaged into one portable file.
It's about sharing ArcGIS data with styling.

So, there are two parts: 1. a prorietary data format and 2. a
prorietary styling.

Actually, we've proposed a similar thing for QGIS called QGIS
All-in-one Project and began to implement a plugin [1].
It's well-defined and based on open formats.

So, how about paying a programmer to 1. enhance the QGIS All-in-one
Project plugin and 2. asking Esri if they could implement an import
for this :-)

Yours, Stefan

Hi Again,
I'm guessing the resounding silence means a resounding NO! ??

Hi Zoltan,

You are right. The two formats are incompatible - and there is no 
documentation of ArcGIS file formats available.


If you know documentation about the ArcGIS Map package format (is this 
different from mxd?) there would be hope.

Hi Andreas,
Drat!
Although I did think as much.

As a non-ESRI user that kind of makes life  more difficult creating 
deliverables.


Good old monopoly at work situation.
Would be kind of nice if this was viewed as anti-competitive :-)

Thanks for your 2c.
Regards,
Zoltan
