Re: [Qgis-user] Qgis-user Digest: Building attribute table in QGIS (badri)

2018-07-06 Thread Chris House
Hi Badri,

You can convert raster to xyz layer using processing tool. I do this and
choose csv option. Be warned this is going to be huge depending on your
raster size. There may be other methods but this is what I use.

[Qgis-user] Raster calculator questions

2018-05-03 Thread Chris House
When using raster calculator in QGIS 3 I  have to create a new raster first to 
serve as the output. Is the intent of this to overwrite a input raster (I 
haven't tried this) or something else? I'm confused by this. 

 

Secondly when I specify a CRS in raster calculator I get "insufficient memory 
for this operation" error.  Using the default output CRS works. This usually 
requires me to add a reprojection step on the output raster.

 

Windows 10

Samsung SSD

AMD 8 core processor

16 GB RAM

NVIDIA Graphics Card 2GB RAM

 

Thanks

Re: [Qgis-user] Symbolizing a discrete or a boolean raster (Stéphane Henriod)

2017-01-09 Thread Chris House
Hi Stéphane,

I don't know if this is what you are looking for or not but I have a method
of classifying rasters by color based on a set (standard) colors.  I
created a spreadsheet that has several required columns, value, red, green,
blue...and you can have an optional field for a display value.  So say
value 1 is water you can use that last column to name that value so that in
the QGIS layer tree and in legend it says Water instead of value 1.

save the spreadsheet as a csv and change the extension to .txt instead of
.csv.

I then go into the symbology section of the raster choose singleband
pseudocolor. Use the folder to browse to your text file and click add.
There is a format for this text file.  It is below.  If you need me to
email it I will do that in direct email.

# QGIS Generated Color Map Export File
INTERPOLATION:EXACT
-,0,0,0,255,NoData
0,176,176,176,255,Non-Forested
15,234,255,191,255,10 <=  CC < 20
25,187,230,149,255,20 <=  CC < 30
35,140,201,109,255,30 <=  CC < 40
45,98,176,74,255,40 <=  CC < 50
55,59,153,43,255,50 <= CC < 60
65,0,128,0,255,60 <=  CC < 70
75,15,92,11,255,70 <=  CC < 80
85,17,61,12,255,80 <=  CC < 90
95,16,36,12,255,90 <=  CC <= 100

In my example if I don't assign a value it gets ignored by QGIS.  If you
are wondering how to assign unique colors to say 200 unique values...just
script it.  I have done this and as long as you have the number of unique
values you want and to make them unique in the script it works.

I hope this helps.  I know it isn't a "button" but to be honest I like this
better.  If you already knew this...well then maybe it will help someone
out in the future.

[Qgis-user] styling single band raster (tif) the same as in ArcGIS

2016-02-20 Thread Chris House

All,

i attempted this question yesterday but it was flagged i guess because 
of the attachment.  No attachment this time for reference hope my 
question is clear without it.


I have a couple single band rasters (tifs) that for the life of me I 
can't get to style in QGIS.  I am attaching a screen shot of how they 
look in a ArcGIS.  The colors do not matter what matters is that each 
cell value has a unique color.  I've tried palleted but it doesn't 
work.  If someone could please help me with this process i would be 
extremely appreciative.  I've looked in the documentation and through 
other (stack exchange) forums to try and find an answer.  I don't think 
that it's the process of styling the raster that i have an issue it may 
be more in preparing that raster for styling in qgis or the specifics of 
this raster.  (eg prerequisites for styling a single band raster in that 
way in qgis...it works in ArcGIS).  I have done this before with other 
single band rasters (tifs).


Thanks

Chris

Re: [Qgis-user] ArcGIS & QGIS

2015-11-12 Thread Chris House
Thanks Holger,

While symbolgoy from ArcGIS to QGIS is also an issue the main question is
how do i get the symbology to my clients from QGIS.  It has to be a simple
method.  While a direct import and read in ArcGIS may not be possible, it
has to be easy that clients don't see it as an issue.

Andreas,

I'm looking into ArcGIS and SLD now that's always been my suspicion if this
is possible it will be there.  However, there is no documentation for
ArcGIS desktop application reading SLD (only WMS) also no tool box tools
that I could find to convert SLD to layer.  I have seen a (i believe German
made) tool that would convert lyr to sld but I could not get it to work in
the short time i worked with it.

I want to note that I am very familiar with ArcGIS up to version 10.2.2
I've only recently been exposed to 10.3.  That being said in my business I
do not have ArcGIS.

[Qgis-user] ArcGIS & QGIS

2015-11-12 Thread Chris House
Hi All,

I've touched on this before in a previous email but I want to get more
feedback from this group.  In my work my deliverables will sometimes
include project files and data.  The data sharing is easy.  However, if the
client uses ArcGIS how can I share things like symbology and project
files?  I know this is a loaded question but I am running into some road
blocks where my clients will have to duplicate everything in ArcGIS.  For
many private and government organizations simply installing QGIS is not an
option for them.  So far the cop out answer of is well that's their problem
for vendor lock.  That isn't fair to a lot of my clients who don't get a
choice in what software they use.  Most of the time these decisions are
made at corporate level or at the highest governmental level.  I want to be
able to produce quality work (which I can in QGIS) but I have to be able to
share it when I need to without the duplication of work.

I understand that ArcGIS does not play ball and so the burden to share is
all on QGIS.  This is a problem that needs to be overcome by the QGIS
community if they want to expand and become an equal in places where
corporations and government agencies make the software choices at the
highest levels.

If somehow sharing projects and symbology (especially symbologyy) is
already possible I would love to know how to do it.

Thanks Nicolas,

I am surprised that there isn't more work being done in this arena.  I am
in the U.S. and ESRI has vendor locked the federal, most state, and most
county governments.  There are FEW exceptions to this in the federal
level.  Unfortunately, my clients just don't deal in web based solutions
(in some cases impossible due to locale) but when you are talking about
printed publications (informational posters, pamphlets, etc ) the need to
share data and projects is a necessity.

Re: [Qgis-user] Exporting doesn't show all features

2015-10-26 Thread Chris House
Thanks Nyall!

It does appear there are 2 issues going on.  First the background using
open layers.  Switching to quick map services solved the OSM not displaying
in the export.  However, the issue of the shapeburst fill not displaying is
something else entirely.  It simply does not export.  I am using 2.8.2 Wien
on Microsoft windows 7 64bit. I have a single vector layer polygon that
i've changed the style to inverted fill and shapeburst.  I'm going from
Black to transparent.  The end result is that vector layer does not export
from the main map or the inset map.  Thanks again for any help!

[Qgis-user] Exporting doesn't show all features

2015-10-26 Thread Chris House
Hi all,

I am in the final stages of a project that will put my map in ppt.  I am
having trouble getting this map out of print composer with all the features
correct.  I have a basemap that is a raster with some vector on top of
that. One of the vectors are symbolized as inverted shapeburst.  It does
not show up on the png or PDF export.  I also have an inset map with OSM as
basemap and that inverted shapeburst on topneither the vector or the
OSM layer show up in exports.

I've set the composition to both rasterize and not..didn't make a
difference.

I've locked all layers and layers styles, and set each to cache...

Am I missing something?  This is really important and fast deadline.

Please help!!

Thanks

[Qgis-user] help adding arcgis rest service to qgis

2015-10-25 Thread Chris House
I need help trying to get this rest service into qgis.  If someone can 
help me out here is the link.


http://mapservices.nps.gov/arcgis/rest/services

If you stick that in browser you will see a few items under "services" 
the specific one i need is "wildlandFire_Facility".  If you get this 
working can someone please let me know how you did it? I've followed the 
instructions from the following website but I can't seem to get this one 
to work but I get the example on this website to work.  I'm certain this 
is user error or the site is missing something.

[Qgis-user] Question for sharing styles

2015-10-23 Thread Chris House
I am interested in what others are doing to share styles with ArcGIS users.
Most of my clients in the U.S. use ArcGIS. It's a fact of life that I share
data and styles with them. As far as I know only ArcGIS server can read
sld? What do others do to share styles with ArcGIS users?

Thanks

[Qgis-user] mrsid qgis 2.8 and ubuntu 14.04

2015-06-26 Thread Chris House
Hi all,

I'm trying to find some updated instructions for adding MrSid support for
QGIS 2.8 on Ubuntu 14.04.  I started following the instructions from here:

https://trac.osgeo.org/ubuntugis/wiki/TutorialMrSid

However, I'm hung up on the instructions where you do the build.  I
downloaded the following mrsid sdk from Lizardtech and extracted it.

MrSID_DSDK-9.1.0.4045-linux.x86-64.gcc44.tar.gz

The readme specifically says no real installation is necessary

Can someone point me to some updated instructions on how to get mrsid
support in QGIS 2.8?

Thanks!

2015-06-26 Thread Chris House
i did try both of the build methods and neither worked. I get command not
found for both.

I would prefer a different format but I'm unaware of another file type that
can compress as well as mrsid (usable file sizes) that cover as much
territory (200km2)

Thanks

 Have you followed the steps you've linked to? Did either the
 gdal-build-mrsid or gdal-mrsid-build work?

[Qgis-user] qgis wms crashes when click add button

2015-04-16 Thread Chris House
Hi All,

I sent an email before about QGIS 2.8 crashing when I added in basemaps
from google, bing etc from a plugin.  However, I'm having the exact same
issue when i add a WMS layer.  If I click the Add button QGIS simply
closes.  Up until that point all looks well in the dialog boxes no errors
or hiccups.  Has anyone else seen this?

I tested the exact wms url in a different GIS application and it works
fine.  It's USGS FYI

2015-04-01 Thread Chris House
The first issue I had was with the openlayers plugin crashing qgis 2.8. If
i click google imagery or bing imagery qgis crashes.

Next a set of tifs i have (with tfw files) come in as not have a crs and
then they crash qgis 2.8 as well.

This is the only version of qgis installed.

[Qgis-user] Layer doesn't change export to pdf

2015-03-22 Thread Chris House
Hi all,

This is my first email and I'm not 100% on protocol.

I exported to a pdf from print composer. One of the layers were
symbololized using inverted shapeburst polygons.  After the first export I
changed the starting color of the shapeburst.  The next export reflected
other changes to the map but not the starting color of the shapeburst.
After exporting to jpg the color change was reflected. Any help would be
appreciated!

Thanks!
