Re: [Qgis-user] Error in Georeferencer tool

2011-11-28 Thread Agustin Lobo
I was suspecting something like this too. But the question is that the CRS
of the input image should be, by definition, unknown. In case the input
image has a CRS, this CRS should be just ignored. Instead, the plugin
actually prompts the user about the CRS of the input image. And I do not
find any way to set the input CRS to unknown or just arbitrary x,y
coordinates (while this is possible in Grass).

Where you say:

Upon resetting the CRS specified in the layer properties to the correct
one, all was well
do you refer to the input or to the output image?

 I have observed this behaviour in QGIS 1.7.2 and found, upon reviewing the
 layer properties of the georectified layer, that the coordinate reference
 system being used was NOT the one specified in the Georeferencing plugin.
 Rather, the CRS was some unknown custom CRS.  Upon resetting the CRS
 specified in the layer properties to the correct one, all was well.

 Hope this helps.

Re: [Qgis-user] adding HDF-EOS (.hdf) rasters?

I have the same issue with netcdf files with multiple datasets. (using
QGis and GDAL trunk).

Could this be related to the GDAL raster provider?

Hi, Agus;

You set your desired CRS in the Georeferencing properties.  What I am
saying is that this setting seems to be ignored and, in place of the
specified CRS, some strange unknown custom CRS is substituted.  By going
to the layer properties for the georeferenced layer (after it has been
added to your project) and resetting the CRS to the correct one, the
georeferenced layer then displays properly.  This is my experience
anyhow - particularly using Google or OSM (both have Google Mercator CRS)
maps as reference.

Best regards,
Dennis

Unfortunately this is not the case with ED50 UTM31N: the resulting layer has the
correct CRS, but it is shifted. The points appear where they have to
be, but the raster layer
is shifted.
We'll try with points set on google mercator.

Hi Josef,
thanks for the plugin.

Just to let you know that the plugin GUI is not optimized for being
viewed on Linux (see attached image).

Also when clicking on select db it would be nice to have the files
filtered in order to show only the .sqlite ones.


Cheers

Hi Josef,

 Hi Anita,
 I am glad you find some use for it!
 I did choose SpatiaLite since I deal with quite a lot of data from several
 sites at the same time.


Are you using any of SpatiaLite's functions? Would it be difficult to
adjust the code so it could handle arbitrary vector data sources?


 It turned out that spaialite is a great data container for me and my
 colleagues since we only have to deal with one single (and portable) db
 file for each site. Furthermore, since we are mainly hydrogeologists and
 for sure no db gurus, spatialite seemed lika a much easier way to start
 organizing things than e.g. post-GIS.


There are some reasons why I don't use Spatialite much, e.g. the
combination of QGIS + Spatialite has some issues if you define database
views and try to import them into QGIS. The data types are screwed up
often, which in turn makes it impossible to visualize the features by their
(numerical) attributes.

Once PostGIS is set up, I've found it to be much more reliable and
predictable than Spatialite. e.g. Spatialite's weak typing lead to
unexpected results.

Therefore, I'd suggest implementing support for other vector formats
available in QGIS before building new features. A broader setup will
attract more interested users and possible developers.

Best wishes, keep up the good work!

Anita



 I also hope that I (or anyone else that finds it interesting) will get
 time to extend the plugin to include more ways of visualising other
 hydrogeo data from the same spatialite db. Additional functions would be
 stratigraphy plots (similar to ARPAT), time change visualisation  (as your
 Time Manager), gesection profiling, some R statistics etc. (Could be a
 lightweight alternative to the core functionality of ArcHydro GW data model
 and tools.)

 regards
 josef

 2011/11/23 Anita Graser anitagra...@gmx.at

 Looks great! I'd have quite a lot of use cases for such a plugin.
 Any specific reason why it's limited to Spatialite as a data source?

 Fellow QGIS-Users!

 I just finished my first QGIS python plugin in an experimental version.

 The plugin uses pyspatialite and matplotlib to load data from a sqlite
 database and plot it by matplotlib plot command. The intended use is for
 e.g. hydrogeologists (i.e. me) to quickly select features that corresponds
 to observation wells, stream gauges or other measuring stations with data
 to be plotted and then quickly (yes I am in a  hurry) have a window with
 time series plot for zooming, panning and visually examine the data (I know
 it is not very scientific but I do perform some serious data analysis at a
 later stage...).

 Anyway, the plugin is named TimeSeriesPlot, marked as experimental, and
 found in QGIS User-Contributed Python Plugin Repository.

I confirm it. When splitting this self-intersecting line then the result
is also split in every (self)intersection point.

I can confirm that the size scale field does not work with the

 Finally, is it possible to define a transparent border for such ponctual

make the border color the same as the fill color?

I've gotten the graduated symbols to work after discovering the
trick Giovanni mentioned, but now my problem is that they don't show up as
graduated by class, but rather by each individual quantity. This is a
problem because my quantities range from 50 to 2,800, so I'm not able to
get something that's neither too big nor too small. Also they don't show up
as graduated in the legend, so I've had to create the legend piece by

Re: [Qgis-user] announcing time series plot plugin (experimental)

2011-11-28 Thread josef k
Hi Anita,

I definitely see your point that implementing other data formats may
attract other interested users and possible developers.

At the moment, the code simply sends a few simple sql-statements to the
sqlite table with time series data so for that reason there should not be
too much of a work to change data format. I guess those sql statements
could be addressed to a post-GIS database as well. The major holdback for
such a change is probably my own lack of time and lack of coding skills.

But I may try to learn som post-GIS basics some day, just that much I can
let the plugin read that data format.

It is just too bad that adding a csv table to qgis results in string values
only (or have I misunderstood?). Otherwise it might be the quick-fix to let
the plugin be useful with more widely spread data formats.

Thank you for your valuble feedback, I really appreciate it!

Best regards
Josef

 Hi Anita,
 I am glad you find some use for it!
 I did choose SpatiaLite since I deal with quite a lot of data from
 several sites at the same time.


 Are you using any of SpatiaLite's functions? Would it be difficult to
 adjust the code so it could handle arbitrary vector data sources?



 It turned out that spaialite is a great data container for me and my
 colleagues since we only have to deal with one single (and portable) db
 file for each site. Furthermore, since we are mainly hydrogeologists and
 for sure no db gurus, spatialite seemed lika a much easier way to start
 organizing things than e.g. post-GIS.


 There are some reasons why I don't use Spatialite much, e.g. the
 combination of QGIS + Spatialite has some issues if you define database
 views and try to import them into QGIS. The data types are screwed up
 often, which in turn makes it impossible to visualize the features by their
 (numerical) attributes.

 Once PostGIS is set up, I've found it to be much more reliable and
 predictable than Spatialite. e.g. Spatialite's weak typing lead to
 unexpected results.

 Therefore, I'd suggest implementing support for other vector formats
 available in QGIS before building new features. A broader setup will
 attract more interested users and possible developers.

 Best wishes, keep up the good work!

 Anita



 I also hope that I (or anyone else that finds it interesting) will get
 time to extend the plugin to include more ways of visualising other
 hydrogeo data from the same spatialite db. Additional functions would be
 stratigraphy plots (similar to ARPAT), time change visualisation  (as your
 Time Manager), gesection profiling, some R statistics etc. (Could be a
 lightweight alternative to the core functionality of ArcHydro GW data model
 and tools.)

 regards
 josef

 2011/11/23 Anita Graser anitagra...@gmx.at

 Looks great! I'd have quite a lot of use cases for such a plugin.
 Any specific reason why it's limited to Spatialite as a data source?

 Best wishes,

 Fellow QGIS-Users!

 I just finished my first QGIS python plugin in an experimental version.

 The plugin uses pyspatialite and matplotlib to load data from a sqlite
 database and plot it by matplotlib plot command. The intended use is for
 e.g. hydrogeologists (i.e. me) to quickly select features that corresponds
 to observation wells, stream gauges or other measuring stations with data
 to be plotted and then quickly (yes I am in a  hurry) have a window with
 time series plot for zooming, panning and visually examine the data (I know
 it is not very scientific but I do perform some serious data analysis at a
 later stage...).

 Anyway, the plugin is named TimeSeriesPlot, marked as experimental, and
 found in QGIS User-Contributed Python Plugin Repository.
 Screenshot:
 Instructions are found in the readme.txt file shipped with the plugin.
 Download some sample sqlite data:
 And a (silent) video:

 Thanks

 2011/11/28  den...@dmlinton.net:
 Hi, Agus;

 You set your desired CRS in the Georeferencing properties.  What I am
 saying is that this setting seems to be ignored and, in place of the
 specified CRS, some strange unknown custom CRS is substituted.  By going
 to the layer properties for the georeferenced layer (after it has been
 added to your project) and resetting the CRS to the correct one, the
 georeferenced layer then displays properly.  This is my experience
 anyhow - particularly using Google or OSM (both have Google Mercator CRS)
 maps as reference.

 Best regards,
    Dennis

 I was suspecting something like this too. But the question is that the CRS
 of the input image should be, by definition, unknown. In case the input
 image has a CRS, this CRS should be just ignored. Instead, the plugin
 actually prompts the user about the CRS of the input image. And I do not
 find any way to set the input CRS to unknown or just arbitrary x,y
 coordinates (while this is possible in Grass).

 Where you say:

 Upon resetting the CRS specified in the layer properties to the correct
 one, all was well
 do you refer to the input or to the output image?

 Agus

 2011/11/27 Dennis M. Linton den...@dmlinton.net

 **
 I have observed this behaviour in QGIS 1.7.2 and found, upon reviewing
 the
 layer properties of the georectified layer, that the coordinate
 reference
 system being used was NOT the one specified in the Georeferencing
 plugin.
 Rather, the CRS was some unknown custom CRS.  Upon resetting the CRS
 specified in the layer properties to the correct one, all was well.

 Hope this helps.

 Best regards,
     Dennis

If I do in reverse: first set up categorized symbology, then define
