Choose the directory with your raster file. Create a batch file test.bat and enter: call D:\ms4w\setenv.bat gdaltransform -s_srs EPSG:31467 -t_srs EPSG:4326 31467.txt out.txt and a file 31467.txt with the content: 3348778.0 5717526.0 0 Executing the batch file will transform the coordinates and write them to out.txt. If that works, you can use the other gdal tools in the same way. The same works with the osgeo4w package, except that the environment setting has to be included in your batch file: @echo off set OSGEO4W_ROOT=C:\OSGeo4W PATH=%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\bin;%PATH% for %%f in (%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\etc\ini\*.bat) do call %%f Advantage of OSGeo4w is, that it brings its own python with it. ms4w expects a python installation by the user.

If you install the standalone version form http://www.gisinternals.com/sdk/ make sure it has no red warning in the line where you download If you execute the SDKshell.bat inside the directory, gdal points to that standalone version.

Is there a way to manually move them into position and make it away that this is it's right and proper position under IRENET95/Irish Transverse Mercator?

The same thing happens with vector line files. This happens whether or not I have 'on the fly transformation' checked and if I check 'on the fly transformation' and then use vector files in another transformation (e.g. EPSG4326) the same problem occurs. I wonder if there is an issue with the stability of the transformation and if this is affecting both my point locations and the polygon areas referred to by Nick.

Hi all, since 1.8.0 is now the offical stable version, I installed it on Windows 7, besides the old 1.7.4. The only thing that does not work as expected: All text with non-ASCII-characters (e.g. ä ö ü) is broken. The shapefiles are encoded utf-8, and read fine in OpenOffice and qgis 1.7.4. It seems that they are interpreted as codepage System, that is 1252 for Windows. If I create a new shapefile, given encoding=utf-8, this will be broken in OpenOffice and Qgis 1.7.4. Layers from spatialite and postgis databases are not broken. I found this workaround: Look for the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Quantum GIS Lisboa\bin\ (or where the Program has been installed to) open qgis.bat with a suitable text editor Insert the line SET SHAPE_ENCODING=UTF-8 in line 4 save it, and shapefiles in utf-8 will open correctly.

You've obviously only been brought up on a diet of ShapeFiles. To calm down: It has some advantages to have different geometry types separately in different layers. The GPX import in Qgis makes three different layers out of points, routes and tracks within the same file. It would be nice to implement this in kml import, if several geometry types are encountered in the same folder. This is far better than just throw away elements of other types.

It would be better if the plugin installer would advise you to rerun the OSGeo installer. But if the user has used the standalone installer, he would not know what do ...

So I opened your database with qspatialite, and that plugin added tables geom_cols_ref_sys, geometry_columns and spatial_ref_sys to it.

Re: [Qgis-user] nadgrids beta2007
Hi, looking at the CRS below, there is no +towgs84-parameter. Current Qgis has the following string for EPSG:31466, which is Gauss-Krueger-2: +proj=tmerc +lat_0=0 +lon_0=6 +k=1 +x_0=250 +y_0=0 +ellps=bessel +towgs84=582,105,414,1.04,0.35,-3.08,8.3 +units=m +no_defs This was changed some time ago. Perhaps this is already sufficent for your needs. The +towgs84 values vary across Germany. Thats what beta2007 is for. But within one state a constant value should be sufficent in most cases.

Opening the project with QGIS no error is showed for the missing reference, and no layer is shown in the Layers pane.

Maybe a bug concerning opening older version projects. Checking better I can find a reference of this layer in the Identifiable layer tab of Project properties. Saving project as will not purge the file. If you dont want the layer to be in the project anymore: Move the project file to another location, or rename/move the unwanted tif or the layers folder. Opening the project will give you the bad layers handling dialogue. Close that without actions, and save the project. That should remove the unwanted layer from the project. As you can see in the same file other traces of older files are still present in the xml, for instance near lines126 and following: a list of vector layer with snapping turned on. This does not produce any error, but getting them removed when layer is removed is probably cleaner. Yes, but thats another -minor- problem. I have not found a solution for that.

How I can display these images? ECW support needs a special driver. On Windows, you need the osgeo4w-setup for this, and select advanced install, View: full. There you find the package gdal-ecw. mark that and Qgis, to get a Qgis version with ECW support. See also: http://www.gdal.org/frmt_ecw.html I'm not sure if you have to install the ECW SDK too.

Re: [Qgis-user] Error installing Qgis-dev using OSGEO4w
For a clean install, rename your existing C:\OSGeo4w folder, and make a new install in a new folder, with only qgis-dev selected in advanced installation.

Can you check on your complete C drive and see if there are more dlls around for gdal? Sometimes this is the cause of such problems.

Looks like the qgis_core.dll is making trouble. If you have both Lisboa and master on your computer, You should have to versions, one 4,6 MB and one 5.5 MB large. It depends on the path variable, which one is taken. In your case it seems to be the wrong one. What happens if you rename the older one?

The .bat sets the environmnet variable correctly before starting the exe.
