[Qgis-user] Symbol size in legend

[Matt Boyd via QGIS-User]

I'm using some rules for symbols on a map and I'm having trouble getting
the symbol size in the legend to change. I've tried all the buttons I can
find in the Legend item properties that have something to do with size and
the legend icon just stays the same size.
The icons / symbols are svg format. Has anyone hit this before and is there
a fix or something I'm missing? Currently on QGIS 3.32

Re: [Qgis-user] mdal / mesh simple formats

[Matt Boyd via Qgis-user]

Hi Peter,
woohoo, awesome, okay now I get it and it works.
I thought that as the 2dm file had duplicates of the cells & nodes in
the simple mesh I was looking at that it wasn't needed. Also the xdmf
loads directly into paraview so I thought that QGIS would do the same
thing.
All I need to do is generate a 2dm file with nodes and cells like the
examples and my meshes *should work, easy.

Thanks again, I'll post this back to QGIS users in case anyone else
hits the same issue.

Re: [Qgis-user] mdal / mesh simple formats

[Matt Boyd via Qgis-user]

Thanks Peter,
my data already looks very similar to the xdmf sample, my plan was to
just replicate this format or something not very different.

github  lutraconsulting...   MDAL\tests\data\xdmf\simple

However, I can't get QGIS to load simpleXFMD.xmf or simpleXFMD.h5. The
xmf isn't recognised and the h5 just comes in as a single line of
squares.
I was hoping this format was supported as they are in the MDAL repo.
Are the xmf/h5 supported or are they in there as an example of what is
converted to the supported 2dm format?

Thanks again, any light you could shed would be appreciated.

Matt

Thanks Richard,
that looks interesting. I can now get regular grid / square mesh to
display correctly but I'm working with tri-mesh and anything I try to
load using that ends up like this..Just a line of squares.
There's something obvious I'm missing in the format here.

Re: [Qgis-user] mdal / mesh simple formats

[Matt Boyd via Qgis-user]

Thanks, thats pretty helpful.
I'm running QGIS 3.26.2-Buenos Aires installed from osgeo.
under the xdmf directory there the xmf/hdf files look pretty similar
to what I'm using but they won't load. there's a partial duplicate of
the data in the hdf file in that directory as a 2dm file which does
work.
I'm still not sure if I'm supposed to be able to load the xmf/hdf
files directly using mdal? I can easily drop out my hdf5 data to the
2dm format is this the proposed way to do it?

Thanks again
Matt

[Qgis-user] mdal / mesh simple formats

[Matt Boyd via Qgis-user]

Hi QGIS people,
I asked something like this a couple of years ago, managed to find
some workarounds and now that I know a little more about what I'm
doing I could use a bit of help.
I've got some simple tin meshes that I'd like to drop into QGIS, they
get generated in a python modelling software I'm using.
The data all sits in a single hdf5 file, points with coordinates, the
cells which are just the indexes of 3 points, plus attributes for each
point. About the simplest mesh setup I can imagine.
I'm trying to find the simplest format that mdal supports with an
example dataset so I can make something similar. (ideally hdf5 so I
don't need to work out how to use anything new in python).

Any tips?
Thanks
Matt

Re: [Qgis-user] Angle of view

[Matt Boyd]

It sounds like you want to calculate the bearing or azimuth from the
camera position to each point on the raster. This would give you the
direction from the camera to the position, then rotate the result so
it aligns with the direction of the camera. You could probably just
create the basic plot once and then just rotate it to match the camera
direction each time.
I'd do it using a regular grid of points and the calculator, then
interpolate that onto a raster if thats what you want.
essentially arctan(dy/dx) with some rotation and conversion from
radians to degrees.

I've done something similar in python, but for flow direction between
nodes in a drainage network, might be overkill.

Good luck

Re: [Qgis-user] Rename column

[Matt Boyd]

You can rename columns (or fields) in the layer properties (need to
have editting turned on)
In the field calculator, sometimes I have issues with the data type
and "fieldname" doesn't work so well but if I do "1*fieldname" it
does.

Re: [Qgis-user] Qgis low CPU and Memory load

[Matt Boyd]

I use multiproc / proc to speed things up in python instead of a for
loop, each step needs to be independent of the other steps for this to
work.
On an i7 with 4 cores I can process 8 layers at a time and hit 100% on
all of them. I haven't used this inside qgis yet but for the
relatively simple work I'm doing it works well.

Re: [Qgis-user] Selecting maximum values in drill holes

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Grant,
how are you selecting and how is your data stored?
If the drill hole values are in some sort of sql database then you could
ORDER BY "value" descending then SELECT DISTINCT drillhole to get a unique
value for each drillhole.
My SQL is rusty and this is pretty vague.

[Qgis-user] Mesh calculation python modules

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I'm doing some work with some modelling using python that generates large
numbers of mesh surfaces. I'd like to be able to perform comparisons and
run calculations on the meshes. Does anyone know about modules that are
optimised and make this relatively simple. I'm visualising my outputs in
paraview but it seems pretty forgiving so far.

Thanks

Re: [Qgis-user] sampling points from multipe rasters

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Tyler,
the point sampling tool plugin will allow you to select multiple rasters to
sample from and output to the same file. It also allows you to save the
results in a number of different formats (geopackage, csv and shapefile).
If you've got access to python in your version of R then geopandas can read
geopackage files directly, I find that a lot more useful than csv.

I use this workflow. The slowest part is the point sampling depending on
the number and size of rasters and points.

[Qgis-user] Relations table

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I'm trying to work out how to link up a table of data with no spatial
information to a gis layer with locations.
Each location has more than one property, the property is in an excel
spreadsheet.
I want to use the location data from the GIS layer and the properties from
the table to classify the points. Both of these datasets are maintained
separately and I need to be able to bring them back together for analysis.

I'm having trouble getting all of the results for a point in the table to
link to the location.

Any tips on this?
Thanks

Re: [Qgis-user] importing .h5 files in qgis

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Giacomo,
have a look at the mesh options and the Crayfish plugin
that lutraconsulting have put together.
my datasets use .h5 in some places and h5 is just used as a shortened form
of hdf5 which seems to be more of a container than something with set rules
about where and how coordinates and data values sit within it.
The variations in the way that data can be stored in hdf makes it difficult
to identify so it might be that the hdf file isn't that easy to read in
QGIS.

If you want to examine the internals of a hdf file to see what you are
looking at then theres a bit of software called HDFView.

Hope this helps a little.

Matt

Re: [Qgis-user] Exporting points in order

[Matt Boyd]

Thanks Nicolas,
yes, I started out doing a lot of the raster / point generation in numpy
but (so far) I've found that manipulating the data as points in QGIS is a
lot more efficient for my workflow using existing tools than trying to do
something similar with rasters and numpy. This is essentially
pre-processing work to set up a model.
I did a little more digging and thinking and I can order / sort the points
the way I need by using the mmqgis tool or the sort plugin.
Ascending / descending on X/Y  and there's an option to add some SQL to one
of the export command options that (if it allows ORDER BY) will enable me
to make a simple script to export all my datasets.
Thanks again for the tips all.

Matt

[Qgis-user] Exporting points in order

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I need to export a point dataset of a regularly spaced grid in a particular
order as a csv / text file. Its one of the demands of some python code that
I use the points in, its not my code so I don't have any say in this.
The points start in the bottom left and move left to right with the final
point being the top right corner.
Is there an easy way to do this in the export options? I have created a
column that in the point data that I use to sort the data so it goes in
the right order, but it's clunky.

Thanks

Re: [Qgis-user] Geology / formation database structure

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Hugo,
that looks very cool.
I've been looking into this for a while and the thing that seems to be
missing even in the expensive commercial software is the ability to define
(non-spatial) relationships between data points.
The articles I've found about this sort of thing via google all suggest
that it would be very useful and discuss  basic structures but I haven't
been able to find an implementation. Ideally I'd find something
implemented so compatibility was built in.

Using postgis is a great. I'm working on the relationships in access at the
moment just because it's easy to visualise and is installed on most of the
PC's I work with. Once I get the tables right I'll look at moving to
something better.

Matt

Re: [Qgis-user] Geology / formation database structure

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Stefan,
I had another look at midvatten it's not quite what I need.
I'm not sure this is how to explain it but I'll try. The way you describe
it treats stratigraphy as just another property at a layer. I need the
stratigraphic relationships, groups at top level, then formation, then
member in a stratigraphic database, which is then linked to the "base data"
properties you've described.

The idea is to force an internal consistency and enable me to check data
thats been entered.

Thanks
Matt

[Qgis-user] Geology / formation database structure

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
possibly a little OT but do any of the geologists on the list know of a
pre-built structure for formation tops in well data?

I'm thinking a relational DB structure that is able to be filtered by group
/ formation / member and provides more functionality than spreadsheets and
with a smaller footprint than the monolithic geology databases that seem to
be around.

I've started building this myself but I'm more of a user than a designer.

[Qgis-user] assign a symbol based on property in layer

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I've got some shapefiles that have a symbology reference embedded in them.
I've also got a set of symbols that have the same name as the specific
symbology references. I haven't been able to work out how to get qgis to
automatically select the symbology reference. I can manually assign each
one and then save that as a qgis style for use later but there are a lot of
these and I possibly have other use cases.

This would be useful for assigning colours based on geology in surface maps.

Any tips?

Re: [Qgis-user] CRS / reprojection problems

[Matt Boyd]

Sorry, I didn't describe the resolution in my email, just complained
quietly about something.

Somehow I'd loaded up epsg 4938, which is described as GDA94. I assumed
that was the geographic projection and it wasn't until later that I looked
at https://epsg.io/4938 and saw that it's got some odd projection going on.
I could see the meters in the projection but couldn't get past that I'd
selected GDA94. Now I dig into it a little more I can see that there's this
whole set of CRS under geocentric projections. I've either forgotten about
these or never knew.

The projection I meant to use was epsg 4283 GDA94 https://epsg.io/4283 .
Somehow in my project settings the default GDA94 projection which I've
always used had been superseded by the geocentric GDA94 and I didn't notice.

Thanks QGIS people.

Re: [Qgis-user] CRS / reprojection problems

[Matt Boyd]

Kosza replied to me and suggested I try epsg 4283 instead of epsg 4938

Is it usual to have 2 CRS with the same name, one of which appears to be
projected and the other not, I don't think I've seen this before. There
still seems to be something odd about 4938, but I don't see any reason to
use it so it shouldn't bother me.

Here's where I can learn something. Does anyone know what the deal with
this is? I can see a need for a different projections, but is there
supposed to be a better way of naming it that I didn't pick up on, am I
going to need to remember epsg codes form now on?

Thanks

Re: [Qgis-user] CRS / reprojection problems

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Nicolas and Alexandre,
I'm pretty sure that I've done as much as I can to make sure I haven't
screwed up the projections. I used to make those mistakes years ago when I
was first learning, lately the mistakes I've made are because I haven't
been paying attention... I'm pretty sure I'm paying attention this time.

This is a link to some data and a qgis file I'm using as an example
https://unimelbcloud-my.sharepoint.com/:f:/g/personal/boydmc_student_unimelb_edu_au/EuUzfUvxA6NGmZOuYo8_fmkB0AvLldzBmXwq68mdwZvmcw?e=Ake4Qi

lineations_MGA54_projected is the shapefile with the correctly projected
information layer. - Known good data

If I change to a geogrpahic / unprojected coordinate system, for example
GDA94, this layer is not displayed and the canvas is blank.

If I export the lineations_MGA54_projected data to a new file as
unprojected GDA94 option, the re-projected data is wrong.

Thanks for your help

Matt

[Qgis-user] CRS / reprojection problems

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I'm having an issue with reprojecting things in QGIS.
Installer OSGEO64W
Latest version and LTS both have same issue.

Issue:
reprojection just isn't working. If I load a data set with decimal degrees
and another with a projected coordinate system the data (points / lines /
polygons) will only display if the basemap is in the same projection system.

This is happening across 2 PCs, (windows10) and the LTS and latest versions
of QGIS. Has anyone got some troubleshooting tips?

Thanks

[Qgis-user] Change default color bar for single band rasters

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I'm trying to change the default color bar from black-white to spectral
when loading single band rasters (drag and drop onto the canvas).
I know I can edit each rasters properties individually as well as copy and
paste styles, however this is the step I'd like to avoid.

[Qgis-user] Convert arc .lyr to qgis

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGIS people,
I've got a shapefile issued by one of the geological surveys with a .lyr
for styling in ARC also available.

I have tried a couple of plugins / converters to try to get it into
something arc can read but I'm not having any luck. So far I've
tried arcmap2sld and slyr. arcmap2sld crashes with an error in german and
SLYR wants .style files that I don't have.

Has anyone got one of those working? Tips would be appreciated.

Thanks martin,
thats an excellent starting point for me. I'd already started digging into

Does spatialite allow points, lines and polygon in the same database / file?

[Qgis-user] script filegdb to spatial lite

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I'm working from a corporate dataset, mostly geodatabases located on a
network drive.
I'd like to make a portable version of the datasets that I use that's
updated either automaticaly, or whenever I run a script.
I'm not 100% sure how spatialite works. Is everything in a single file
database? I'd like to just create a script only grabbing the data I specify
from the network drive and save that locally.
I don't do the database updating so it's only a one way process.

Has anyone done something like this? are there shortcuts?

Thanks

[Qgis-user] QGIS one to many filter

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I'm using the relations in the project options to link a location with
attributes for that location.

For each location I have a varying number of attributes in the linked
database (using spatialite).

I'd like to only display the location that have a particular attribute
value present, there may be multiple results for the same attribute but if
any of them are present then display the location.

I've seen this done in arc and the video for the select by attribute (in
Italian) plugin looks like it should work but I can't get any of the
options in that video to show.

Any tips?

thanks

David,
also you may find that even though you select a different format it only
saves as a tiff. If you look at the box that states the command line
gdaltranslate is using, the -o flag is the output format. You can check the
box next to the command line and change that manually if it doesn't change
to tiff automatically. Think it's a bug. the output format options can be
googled "-o zmap" works.

Re: [Qgis-user] Exporting Raster layer to text file

[Matt Boyd]

Hi David,
rasters come in a few different flavours.
RGB/greyscale photographic type images such as an aerial photograph or a
georeferenced scan of a map are one. There's not a lot of point exporting
those as text.

There are also Raster images where the RGB / black bands represent a
frequency or attribute from a satellite or remote sensing instrument, you
might want to convert those to a different format to use in a different
package or just select a single band to work on.

Single band raster such as grids or DEMS are another type of raster.

The last 2 types above can be saved in alternate formats under the "convert
format" option in the raster dropdown options somewhere, can't remember the
exact name.

I usually do this with grids / single band rasters. the command line option
is gdaltranslate. "save as" doesn't work the same way it does as with
vector data.

I don't have QGIS open at the so I can't recommend a format but I think CSV
is one of them.

Good luck
Matt

Re: [Qgis-user] How to outline regions consisting of multiple fields

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Jereon,
what I think you wan to do is create a merged region "A" layer that sits on
top of your municipalities layer.
You could do this by copying the municipalities layer. Then, on the copied
layer merge the municipalities by attribute (the region attribute).
Then set the properties of each layer visualization to suit.

I don't think there is a way to just select the outline / extent of the
regions from the municipalities and display that but still keep the
municipalities separate. There may be something with a virtual view if you
loaded it into a GIS database but I'm just guessing now.

Re: [Qgis-user] limiting contour lines to range of elevations

[Matt Boyd]

Right click on the contour other and filter.
You can select only the contours you want field=X or field=y.
The syntax is in SQL, so you can look up a query that matches your
requirements..

Re: [Qgis-user] CSV Loading broken in 2.18.8 on Ubuntu?

[Matt Boyd]

Yes, I had this issue as well and from what I can understand it is broken.

I think the bug has been fixed but we now need to wait for it to roll
through to whenever the next update/patch for Ubuntu QGIS is due. I don't
know when this will be.

Does anyone know how often the Ubuntu repo gets updated?

[Qgis-user] Melbourne training

Re: [Qgis-user] Keeping only POIs X kms from a trace?

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Winfried,
usually in QGIS, unless it's specified differently, the distance field is
in the same units as the project properties. So, 5km would be 5000m in the
the projected UTM zones which use meters.
If 0,05 worked then I assume that your project is in
degrees/minutes/seconds (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_degrees)
which is approximately 5km at the equator, close enough for what you want
to do this time.

One of the key things you'll need to know about if you keep working on GIS
stuff is projections, QGIS can automatically reproject for map displays.
However, when doing a calculation / operation that involves 2 or more
inputs then I make sure to reproject all the inputs to the same system and
work on those files only (save as and select a common projection) knowing
the UTM zone or whatever meters/feet projection is used locally is helpful
when you need to work out distances and areas in useful units.

Matt

Re: [Qgis-user] Keeping only POIs X kms from a trace?

[Matt Boyd]

Winfried,
it's difficult for people to offer help if they don't know where to start,
the knowledge level of the person asking the question is basic input.
I don't think anyone is going to answer a question if someone says they
know nothing about GIS, it's too much work if it sounds like someone needs
to be taught and hasn't started reading the online help or tried out the
online tutorials (I've no idea if there are any). But here goes anyway.

The question you have asked is relatively simple.

load your vector lines - this is your bike route into QGIS. If it comes in
as points you'll need to make them into lines.
load the points you want to sample - your campsites

create a fixed distance buffer around the lines, this will be a polygon (a
closed shape, not a line, lines are different) there's a tool under the
vector menu called fixed distance buffer or something like that.

use this polygon and the intersect or clip tools to select and save the
points you want that are within the buffer you created,save/export those as
gpx.

Good luck.

[Qgis-user] filter by date field

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers
I'm trying to filter some data by date.
The field is classified as date data (it's a shapefile) and it's formatted
/mm/dd

If create a filter

"datafield" < '2000/01/01' I get a type mismatch error,

Same error using BETWEEN

I can get it to work if I export as csv and change 2000/01/01 to 2000-01-01
then use a join on the ID, then save that as a new shapefile and then
filter by the 2000-01-01 field

I'm assuming that a / isn't an acceptable date delimiter. Does anyone know
if this is expected behavior and if I can do something to avoid this step?

Thanks

[Qgis-user] extract / merge data from raster to vector

Hi QGISers,
I've got an ers raster file with elevations and a series of locations as a

What I would like to do is query the ers raster at the point locations and
add the value at that point to the vector file.

How do I go about this?

[Qgis-user] Style - color bar invert continous

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
just upgraded to 2.16 on windows 7 64bit.

I'm working with a single band raster in psuedocolor and the combination of
mode+invert doesn't invert the color bar. The other options do invert the
color bar (mode + equal interval & quantile with invert).

I haven't noticed this behaviour in previous versions. Is this a bug or a
feature?

Thanks

[Qgis-user] Raster statistics manipulation

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I've got a raster / grid that's been normalised to values between 0 and 1.
What I need to do is use this grid to create another grid that uses the
normalised grid as an influence. I've done this before using krigin but
can;'t quite work out how to get there.

Inputs: Grid 0-1 values, distribution is close to normal with a median
value of around 0.25.

I want to create a grid with a similar distributiuon, standard deviation
etc but that has a median value around 0.5

Any tips?

Thanks

[Qgis-user] DMARC and spam, message to list admins

Hi qgisers,
I've noticed a lot of the list email I'm getting is being classified as
spam.

I admin a small mailing list and had a lot of similar problems with Yahoo,
Gmail and Hotmail emails all being rejected. There were settings within my
mailing list software to mitigate this.  I think it's got something to do
with the major webmail providers starting to enforce DMARC relatively
recently.

[Qgis-user] Projection / Custom CRS help

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISer's,
I've got some data acquired in Australia in 1967. The acquisition reports
mention a false easting and northing and a TM projection.
I'm assuming TM means Transverse Mercator.
It's early 1967 data and doesn't mention AGD66 anywhere. However a some of
the reference docs mention measurements in yards and feet.

All of the historical analysis of the data that I can find dates back to
the early 1980's and late 1970's and these all assume AGD66.

I would like to be able to create a custom CRS that I can load the original
data into (or a smaller portion of it) to confirm that the data has been
transformed over the years correctly.

Is anyone familiar with pre-AGD66 projections in Australia and any idea how
I'd go down this road?

Thanks

[Qgis-user] raster image to grid

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I've got an RGB image in tiff & png format, just a scan of a paper map that
represents a grid with an arbitrarily defined colour scale. Somethign like
orange red=700 to blue = 1200. There are also a number of other issues with
the image, it's a bit speckled, there are black contours etc.

I'm hunting for a way to turn the grid into something I can do work on
(this would save me having to recreate the data that the image came from)
by work I mean calculations on the numbers that the colours represent.

I don't need it super accurate but I'm struggling to work out what sort of
words I should be googling.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

I've done something like this in the distant past.
Put data into a postgis database.
Link excel to the database.

That's the basics, there are a few details I don't have time to dig out at
the moment. If you haven't figured it out in a couple of weeks when I'm
back at my desk let me know and I'll see what I can put together.

Thanks, I'm surprised as well, though each time the qgis window refreshes
the values change, so it's not quite!

Re: [Qgis-user] postgis/gresql views

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Brent,

my problem at the moment is SQL based I think, it's been a while and I was
never that good at it.

table1 has the geometry.

table2 has the data


for each location (name) there are multiple zones and multiple dates in the
data table.

So, a join on name gives

name1|zone1|date1|volume1

name1|zone2|date2|volume2

name1|zone1|date2|volume3


all with (I think) a working geometry

Which are all valid results.


However, when I go to display the results as labels in QGIS I can only see
one result at a time. Ideally I'd to be able to separate them by date

name1 (as at x day)

zone1:volume1,

zone2:volume2,


I'm basically having trouble creating a single combined string from the SQL
that I can use as a label.


My view create script is below.


CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW joined_table2_locations AS

 SELECT table1.id,

table1.geom,

table1.name,

table1.type,

table2.name,

table2.zone,

table2.date_from,

table2.date_to,

table2.volume,

table2.key_colum

   FROM table1

 JOIN table2 ON table1.name::text = table2.name;

[Qgis-user] postgis/gresql views

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers.
I'm trying to work out how to display some geological data on map.
Basically
Table x;
location1 | zone1 | date1 | value1
location1 | zone1 | date2 | value2
continued with variations in location/zone etc..

spatial table
geometry Column | location1


I create a view in postgresql using the location as the common column.
However, when I try to display my data, zone2 is shown with value1 and I
can't work out how to get 2 values and 2 zones to display at a time.

All the data is there and shown correctly in the combined attributes table,
however labels don't show correctly.

Ideally I'd like to be able to create labels and views from within qgis
using functions (eg, for all zones in location1, what is the sum of the
values).

I've only been at this a couple of hours this afternoon but thought I'd
check here in case there's a simpler solution than the one I'm heading
towards.

Thanks
Matt

Re: [Qgis-user] Saving qgs project file takes forever on VPN - no problem with data

[Matt Boyd]

I'm pretty sure there's a lockfile that stops you from doing that. Also,
I've found most layers (shapefiles in particular) are locked so they can't
be edited by other applications while qgis has them.

[Qgis-user] Blending layers question

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Group,
this is possibly one of those questions about a question. I'd like to
create some blended layers that look the same as layers in QGIS with
transparency applied.
I've another application that my data lives in and they supply a calculator
that's able to do some fairly reasonable maths on different grids and other
types of data.

How does QGIS do transparency, and can I use those equations / method
elsewhere.

Thanks

Thanks Nicolas,
yes, I'm aware of those properties. What I'm trying to work out is how QGIS
does this so I can use it outside of QGIS in another program. Some pointers
to the sort of questions I should be asking google on transparency would be
handy.

[Qgis-user] isomap / zmap grids show nan as values

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I've a bit of a problem with some grids that are created in some other
software. They load in the correct place but the values aren't read
correctly.
THe format is isomap z. Though I've also tried selecting the gxf format
with the same result.

I'm assuming it's something to do with how the other software writes the
grid, I occasionally get errors about gdal expecting an X or Y value but
there being something else, the difference is usually quite small (0.1 or
something like that).

My workaround has been to load grid as XYZ and then re-grid the data in
qgis. This is a little slow.

Has anyone got any tips?

Thanks

Re: [Qgis-user] Call for release name suggestions 2015

I think the G in QGIS is emphasised nicely by using place names.
The current selection method of place names is also good as it recognises

 Hi List,

 I need to work out some channels and hydrology things from a topography
 DEM. I've done a little bit of this before but if there's a how to or a
 tutorial on the correct process / work flow that someone could point me at
 I'd appreciate it.



 Basically I need to work out that if I have rainfall in an certain area,
 how much of it makes its way through to another area (using a DEM) and the
 path it takes. It doesn't need to be precisely quantified, just an idea on
 preferred pathways and the end result.



 Thanks

I was getting some odd results when adjusting this option. It took me a

[Qgis-user] Automated / saved work flows?

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers,
I'm wondering if there's a plug in or some way to save a series of steps in
QGIS.
One way I can think of doing it is to simply save the text / command line
part of the gdal commands into a text / batch file which I could then use
to string a series of command together, using the output from the first as
the input to the second and so on.

I've used programs that do this sort of thing more or less using a GUI. Is
there anything similar for QGIS?

Re: [Qgis-user] Merging Shapefiles on Top of Each Other

[Matt Boyd]

Hi Tom,
Have a look at some of the QGIS tutorials (google or the QGIS website
shoudl have some). It sounds like you just need to overlay the layers in
the correct order, merge generally means something else.
You can drag / move the layers around / up / down in the layers window.
Generally from top to bottom, points, lines, polygons. There is also an
option to give each layer a level of transparency.

 with this matter would be greatly appreciated.

 Many Thanks,
 Tom

[Qgis-user] Zmap problems

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISers
I've got a misbehaving application that exports Zmap formatted grids but
gdal ( QGIS) doesn't recognise them.
In QGIS the gird is loaded in the right place, but with incorrect values
(all way off scale compared to whats in the file.
If I try to use gdal_translate then I get

 band 1: IReadBlock failed at X offset 0, Y offset 0

Any tips?

Re: [Qgis-user] Fwd: QGIS crash on loading projects

[Matt Boyd]

I got it sorted out Phew...
I loaded up event viewer (didn't even know this existed) and in the log,
associated with QGIS failure was this line...

Faulting module path: C:\Windows\system32\spool\DRIVERS\x64\3\RIC63DJ.DLL

It's part of the Ricoh Print drivers and the printers are the least of my
problems this week so I deleted that file and yay print composer works
now!!! A very specific problem on my machine only.

Thanks again everyone.

Matt

Re: [Qgis-user] Fwd: QGIS crash on loading projects

[Matt Boyd]

No, it's still crashing.

On Thu, Jan 29, 2015 at 1:49 PM, Nathan Woodrow madman...@gmail.com wrote:

 Ok give this a go.

 In the install folder for QGIS there is a file called OSGeo4w.bat. Run
 that and type:

 qgis --optionspath C:\temp\qgis --configpath C:\temp\qgis

 Both those options take a folder path and will save the settings there.
 These will create a new user home and settings location in temp\qgis.  This
 is good for seeing if there is a busted setting in your registry for QGIS.

 Run that command and see if it still crashes.

 Seems like my problem is the print composer and is unrelated to any of

 I've tried a complete uninstall and reinstall of QGIS and all of the

 figuring out as the uninstall isn't a transparent process)

 Standalone install of QGIS 2.6.1 from website download.

 Standalone install of QGIS 2.4 from website download.

 In none of the above cases am I able to get the print composer to start.
 I really don't want to have to reinstall windows.

 I think I've narrowed it down to something with Print Composer. As

 This happens even with newly created projects.
 The problem with other projects loading must be because most of them
 have a print composer window to open.

 Now more digging.

 Hi,

 Personally this is what I would do.

 Completely purges Qgis from your system.  (Delete plugin directories, AND
 the Qgis registry keys.) Reboot.

 I would install Qgis 2.6.1 using the OSGEO install.

I followed these steps. My install was already done via osge064w and
uninstalling was a little tricky.
I removed the directories and the registry entries.

I then reinstalled QGIS via the express installer.

QGIS wouldn't start giving an error about jvm.dll missing from my computer.

I manually selected the java install via the advanced option, jvm is
installed and in a subfolder in C:\osgeo4w64

I suspect it's a path problem, working on this.

I would make sure that all mapped drive are properly remapped with the
 proper passwords, I would install the open layer plugin and wms or other
 data servers. Make sure the symbols are reinstalled if you had new ones and
 also make sure the .svg symbol images are well mapped.

 If the problem persists, I would repurge Qgis, install and older version
 and try again.

 Finally, i would then start looking at the project files with a text
 editor to try to  understand the problem. I is likely the crash is cause by
 a layer that cannot be opened and that this layer depends on a plugin like
 openlayer, a mapped drive, wms servers... That would be my guess.

 Thanks Lene,
 I tried that on a 3 projects this morning with no change to the behaviour.
 I've had 2.6.1 for a while now and these projects opened in that early last
 week.
 I've also tried loading older projects that are still in 2.0, 2.2, and 2.4
 format and the same thing happens.

 Most of my projects are on a network drive and I've managed to get a step
 further by copying those project files to a local drive. I then get the
 handle bad layers dialog, then qgis crashes. I need to dig a little to
 see if this is a problem in case someone has moved some of the layers the
 dialog is referring to but this hasn't caused a crash before.

 Is this behaviour logged anywhere?

 Thanks

 If you have your crashed projects – you also have projects named with a

 A lot of my students had the same problem last week – but only the ones

Complete reinstall third time lucky, QGIS runs. It still crashes when I try
to open an older project so I'm back to where I was this morning.
I would really appreciate knowing if there is a log file generated or how
to create one?

 However, starting with QGIS 2.6 you can use the visibility presets

 Hi QGISers,
 I've got a few different print composers in the same project and it's
 slightly painful to go back and turn layers on/off when I want to edit one
 of them.

  Is there an easy way to turn on/off the layers in a particular print
 composer automagically?

 Hi QGISers,
 I've got a few different print composers in the same project and it's
 slightly painful to go back and turn layers on/off when I want to edit one
 of them.

  Is there an easy way to turn on/off the layers in a particular print
 composer automagically?

  THanks

Re: [Qgis-user] Export categorized layers

[Matt Boyd]

You can save the joined layer as a shapefile.
Then use the filter (right click on the layer  filter) to determine which
properties to select (you can even do a WHERE IS NOT NULL type thing I
think), it's just simple SQL type stuff there.
Then save the result as a shapefile.

Unless I don't understand what you're trying to do?

Re: [Qgis-user] NoData

[Matt Boyd]

I can contribute a couple of things from my experience with some of these.
1. there are some gotchas with using NULL (in vector files) is that the
result of X+NULL or X concatenate NULL, effectively any operation using
NULL the result is NULL. This is expected/deliberate.
I've only come across Nan in tiffs when there's somethings wrong with the
format / import.
Nodata seems to be specified, the default is set at 0 on most files/formats
I've dealt with (usually single band rasters) and its handled the same way
as if I specify -999.

[Qgis-user] Clarke ellipsoid

[Matt Boyd]

Hi QGISer's
I've some old (early 1960's) that was acquired with what appears to be a
clarke ellipsoid. This predates AGD66. It's from Australia, with a central
meridian of 141. I've got a scanned image but it's from the middle of a
desert and there are no landmarks to georeference. I've also got a series
of lats/longs and XY text files that relate to that data and projection.
epsg 4008 looks to be about the closest however I'm not sure how accurate
this is. Has anyone worked with data like this and how it compares to
something like AGD66/GDA94.

TIA

  Hi Matt
 
  ITRF is a global reference frame (or actually a series of reference
 frames
  such as ITRF2000, ITRF2005, ITRF2008, and shortly ITRF2013).  It is the
  coordinate system used for global system such as GNSS (global navigation
  satellite systems, of which GPS is the most well known).
 
  Each tectonic plate is moving relative to it.  So the movement of the
  Australian plate in this system amounts to about 7 cm per year.
 
  GDA94 is an Australian datum and is effectively defined in terms of the
  Australian plate, so it moves with it.  What that means a point in
  Australia has a fixed coordinate in terms of GDA94, but it's latitude and
  longitude in terms of an ITRF is steadily changing, equivalent to the 7cm
  per year.  In 1994 when GDA94 was originally defined the latitude and
  longitude were more or less the same as ITRF, which means now the
  difference is equivalent to about 20*7cm = 1.4m offset.  That is, if you
  confuse an ITRF latitude and longitude with a GDA94 latitude and
  longitude, you might be in error by this much.
 
  UTM refers to a series of Transverse Mercator with central meridians at 6
  degrees of longitude spacing.  That is to say it is a set of functions
 for
  converting latitude and longitude to and from easting and northing.  The
  UTM coordinate of a point therefore depends upon the latitude and
  longitude of that point, and as noted above, that depends on the datum
  (ITRF,GDA94) used to define the latitude and longitude.
 
  I haven't reread the specification for a while, but some (many) years ago
  the datum used for UTM was somewhat ambiguously defined to be the
  something like the most significant or dominant datum in the zone in
 which
  it applied.  However that may have changed to be more specific in these
  days of global reference frames.  If this definition remains then UTM
  zones over Australia could be in terms of GDA94.  However that seems
  unlikely, maybe someone with more current can confirm or deny!
 
  The main point is that if you care about accuracies of the order of 1m,
  then you need to know what datum you are using.
 
  The second main point is that the relationship between datums is time
  dependent (ie it is not the same in 1994 as 2014).  This is currently not
  handled by GIS coordinate system metadata, which only handles constant
 (in
  time) relationships between reference systems.
 
  Cheers

  Hi fellow QGIS people,
  I'd like an easy (as in if it's too hard I probably won't have time to do
  it) way to confirm the drift on GDA94 compared to UTM. I've done a little
  digging and haven't been able to find anything except Australia is
 moving
  approximately NE at a rate of 7cm per year and in 2005 it was 77cm.
  Having said that, I'm a little hazy on if UTM is the worldwide reference
  and how it's related to IRTF.
 
  Is there anywhere online that works this out automatically?

 Here you can manually edit each ring and vertex by manipulating the

 The polygon is not selectable, also in PlainGeometryEditor.
