Re: [Qgis-user] We need help updating the qgis user guide for, version 2.2

Interestingly, I don't seem to have OSM plugin on
my version 2.0.1.  I don't see it under Installed
and I don't see it under Get more, though there is
an OSMEditorRemoteControl in the Get more tab.

How do I get it on ver 2.0.1 QGIS - Win64 version?

Re: [Qgis-user] Print Composer - Rotation of Shapefiles with transparency

[Mike Flannigan]

I'd try this out for you, but I can't find the rotate capability
in Project - New Print Composer.  Across from Rotation I have
Portrait and Landscape, but that is all.

Any chance you could answer this question below

Hi List,

I try to rotate a map in the print composer and I have an awkward problem.
I wanted to check if I am alone in this case, or if it's a bug.

I work under Windows 7 64 Pro - QGIS is 2.0.1.

When I rotate a map in the print composer, shapefiles are cut at a right
angle (according to the north) if the transparency is not set at 0. If the
transparency is set at zero, no problems. When I rotate the map from 180
degrees it works fine too, but anything else doesn't. Output is the same if
it exported in .jpg, .pdf, ...

Enclosed the output with the print composer and a rotation of 330 degrees
and a screenshot of the print composer (the map is cached). The
transparency of the green layer is set at 5%, 0% for the red. You can see
how the green layer is cut ...

Screenshot:http://imgur.com/ZtCdfwY
Print output:http://imgur.com/3iBFwXD

This problem doesn't appear for raster with/without transparency.

I already tried to modify every option I knew, but it doesn't work.

  Any hints?
Thanks a lot
Nebi

Re: [Qgis-user] Newbie issue with layers

[Mike Flannigan]

Howdy.

I assume you have checked and unchecked the black
'X' next to each layer in the Layers window and
each layer turns on and off as you check them?

Also try a 'zoom to layer' for the csv layer.
Perhaps this is just a case of not having a
negative sign in front of the long, so your
points are on the other side of the world.

Thanks for the responses.  Using -93, 37 it gives
a Crash Dumped and produces a mini dump file of 20MB.
I tried a couple different things, but all of them
crashed.

I see a message that says OGR[3] error 4: GeoJSON Driver

Which suggest this bug report is at play:
https://hub.qgis.org/issues/10107

So I set to another projection (4267), on my map and in

I can't quite make out the code or I would try to do
this manually.

Hi Mike, I'm not familiar with this zoomtopoint.py, however, your

Re: [Qgis-user] zoomtopoint.py

[Mike Flannigan]

Hi,

I am running version 1.1.  I hit Upgrade All
and it remained at version 1.1.  The Uninstall
plugin button and Reinstall plugin buttons are
greyed out, so I can't easily figure out how to
uninstall it and reinstall it.
Perhaps I should go to
in C:\PROGRA~1\QGISDU~1\apps\qgis\python\plugins\processing
and just physically remove ProcessingPlugin.py, which
is dated 9/21/2013?

Well, I guess not.  I moved it out of that directory and
the program would start up, but Processing was no longer
available and it gave the startup error message below.
I moved it back and everything is back to normal, but I
can't upgrade or reinstall no matter what.  I'll do some
more research on this and then probably upgrade the whole
package, heh?

Regarding number 3 below, you are absolutely right.

I have installed the prebuilt binary of QGIS 2.4 on a Win 7 64bit
platform. Added plugins are Qgis2threejs, viewshed analysis and
MultiQML. CRS is OSGB:1936.

I'm using the Openlayers plugin to fetch Bing aerial with labels as a
base map.   I experience incomplete loading of tiles in three situations.
(1) When loading the Bing layer, not all tiles are loaded. Hitting F5
(refresh) will fix it so this is not too much of a problem

(2) There is a consistent unloaded column of tiles the the RHS. I can't
find a workaround for this. All I can do is clip it.

(3) The biggest issue is when using Print Composer to render to a jpg
file. In this case perhaps only 0-25% of tiles are loaded. No
workaround. See pc.jpg atttached.

I am a new user so I have much to learn so I'm not sure if this is a bug
or a user issue. Does anyone else see the same problems and have any
suggestions that I might try?

This also happens on Win7 64 QGIS 2.4.0.  Not right away,

Coordinate Capture plugin allows one to click on the map, hit

click on the map and it copies the lat/long to the clipboard,
executes an external script, and puts the result on the map

is too complicated.

Can that be done with Actions?  Or is the Python Console or

You can get maps from thousands of places.  This is just 2:
https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/tiger.html

Instead of downloading files you may want to install the

a few maps.

[Qgis-user] QGIS Freezes when zooming or dezooming when a WMS service is used

[Mike Flannigan]

I'm still using 2.14.3. [Yes, I need to upgrade]

I think that behavior might be due to the WMS service
you use.  In a sense it is freezing on their end.
I have only used Bing Road in the USA, and it hesitates
all the time when panning, and sometimes freezes for a
few seconds, but I have never seen it freeze for more
than 15 seconds.

Try turning off the layer, zoom to a location, and then
turn it back on.

Good morning to all,

Context :

OS : Windows 7 Pro, SP1, 64 bits

Hardware : I5-3550 at 3.30 Ghz – Ram=16Go

Access to the Net via a small network and a physical firewall (ZyXEL) (ADSL
speed test tells upload 533 Kbits/sec and download 8.77 Mbits/sec)


QGIS tends to freeze when zooming or dezooming if a WMS service is used
(Windows tells QGis is not responding, even after half an hour). Doesn’t
happens each time but I’ve been unable to find what’s different when it
freeze and when it doesn’t.

Has anyone experienced the same problem ?

Has anyone a clue to solve this ?

Hi Mike!

First off, I'd strongly suggest upgrading to 2.18 (or 3.0, if you like
bleeding edge!). You'll get lots of bug fixes and improvement
behaviour over the older, unsupported 2.14 release. If you're stuck on
2.14 for some reason, you definitely should be running the final patch
release for that version, which is 2.14.22.

Do you mean for each node in the polygons, or just for the centroid?

The easiest way is to use the built-in Processing toolbox.

If you're after a lat/long for the centroid:
1. Run the "Polygon centroids" algorithm to obtain a point for each centroid
2. Run the "Export/Add geometry columns" algorithm to add a field for
centroid x/y values
3. Export to XLS/CSV/etc

If you're after a lat/long for each node:
1. Run the "Extract Nodes" algorithm to obtain a point for each node
2. Run the "Export/Add geometry columns" algorithm to add a field for
centroid x/y values
3. Export to XLS/CSV/etc

[Qgis-user] GDBTable Files

[Mike Flannigan]

I understand GDBTable Files are part of a geodatabase.
I am please to see that my QGIS 2.14.3 opens these
just fine.  That was a pleasant surprise.

I have BLM land data and Federal land data for the USA
in the GDB format.  I would like to obtain the lat/long
point data for all the polygons.  If anybody knows a
straight forward way to do that, please tell me.

I know GDAL with the FileGDB driver is one method that
may work.  I have not tried that yet.  I can also
generally get polygon lat/long data from shape files
using Perl, so I may try converting the GDBTable data
to a shape file and work from there.

Thanks for your consideration.

Re: [Qgis-user] looking for mapping program

Do you know Tony Cooley?
http://www.datadirections.biz/XMap8_Review_SAF_Forestry_Source_June_2013.pdf

I don't either, but you may want to contact
him to get his opinion.

QGIS is free, so that is a positive.  It is also
very, very powerful.  It has a very fast development
cycle, which will be both good and bad for you
in different ways.  It can be self-taught, but
you may not have the time for that.  If not,
you should check into training options before you
decide.

If your users need very basic GIS functions and nothing
more, it might be better to use a simpler software, like
those supplied by Delorme or others, instead of teaching
everybody QGIS.

[Qgis-user] Complex Polygons to Simple Polygons

What I am trying to do is explained by
somebody else here:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45096552/converting-a-polygon-with-holes-into-multiple-simple-polygons-without-holes?s=4|132.7784

I believe I can get this done outside of QGIS, but I am
asking you'all if you know of a way to do this with
QGIS.  The videos below describe the problem in more
detail.

A brief description of what I want to do is to reduce complex
polygons (outlined by their nodes) to numerous simple
polygons (outlined by their nodes) that do not include
the "holes" in the complex polygon.

Re: [Qgis-user] ctrl-c selection issue

[Mike Flannigan]

Hi,

I would recommend not using Excel to modify CSV files.  That
program has a reputation for changing numbers to dates and
performing other modifications to the file contents that may
not be wanted.

Personally I use the Text::CSV module in Perl, but there are
many other methods to modify a CSV file without the changes that
Excel imposes on you.

Hi,
  


Using qgis 2.14.18 I have been working today with a large csv file (7.5 mln
objects). I just need selections of this database which I can then modify in
excel. So I opened the attribute table and made a selection based on a
specific value for an attribute, and copied that selection (about 30.000
objects) via the clipboard (ctrl-c) to a new Microsoft Excel file, then
saved the excel file and repeated the process for another selection. This
worked perfect for some time. However, some selections won't copy: when I
press the copy button the programs turn to 'not responding' and won't snap
out of it anymore.  Selection size when this happens is about the same
(about 20k to 35k objects).

  


What could be the problem? Could the data be corrupted? How can I check what
is wrong?

Re: [Qgis-user] writing vector data for QGIS input from a python script using osgeo ogr

As Etienne said, you can use geojson if you want to.
I recommend it.

Create geojson files that look like this:

{
"type": "FeatureCollection",
"crs": { "type": "name", "properties": { "name": 
"urn:ogc:def:crs:OGC:1.3:CRS84" } },


"features": [

{ "type": "Feature", "properties": { "id": 1, "name": "Route 46" }, 
"geometry": { "type": "LineString", "coordinates": [ [ -90.1322030, 
38.9030880 ],  [ -90.1321070, 38.9031320 ],  [ -90.1321180, 38.9032740 
],  [ -90.1322400, 38.9033200 ],  [ -90.1327310, 38.9033390 ],  [ 
-90.1327700, 38.9033720 ],  [ -90.1328080, 38.9034150 ],  [ -90.1328500, 
38.9034620 ],  [ -90.1328940, 38.9035110 ],  [ -90.1329390, 38.9035600 
],  [ -90.1329630, 38.9036120 ],  [ -90.1329790, 38.9036700 ],  [ 
-90.1329930, 38.9037210 ],  [ -94.8775660, 36.8685670 ] ] } }


You can combine them into one file with a comma between them.

Load that file into QGIS and you have tracks that look like this:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/routes_-_svg.svg

It has the added bonus that if you change the file
while QGIS has it open, the next screen refresh will
usually show the change.

Very cool.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS 3.4.2 still very slow to work in Windows 10

[Mike Flannigan]

I can report that I do not see the same thing reported
below.  I use QGIS 3.2.0 on Win7 with a pretty good graphics
card and I don't have any problems at all.  I'm thinking it
has perhaps froze up a couple times since the install in late
June 2018, but I don't recall the last time that happened.

I just opened a project with 266,000 point features, and it
takes 18 seconds to open the attribute table, but works
flawlessly.

I am using Intel Zeon CPU E5-1630 v4 @ 3.70GHz - 16GB Ram.

I have never tried QGIS 3.4.1.

Hi David,
everything you've detected happens since the transition to 3.x also on

any operation, even the simplest one, such as saving or calculating polygon

have participated ...
(http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Node-Tool-proposing-improvements-td5387054.html).
Moreover:
- there is  no currently a native topological verification tool of
shapefiles (the new validator incorporated in editing is almost impossible
to run on shapefile with hundreds of polygon in ...)
It will take years, in my opinion, before the 3.x version can be used
productively.
Unfortunately, the gap between users and developers remains gigantic,
although most of the developers say that users have been asked .. sin until
2.18.x everything was wonderful.

I Hope that somebody from QGIS.org can see our perplexities and adjust as
far as possible this version which for now remains only a container of good
ideas

My idea is to calculate distance to points, for example, distance of all

In theory, if the bird moves during the weekend by hunting, the distances
of the days Saturday and Sunday should be greater than those of Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
How do you come up with this? Any other alternative?

At its left side (not visible on the screenshot since it's from 2.x

Just type in *l layername* or simply the layer name and you should get

Re: [Qgis-user] Clip Lines (Roads) with Polygon (States)

[Mike Flannigan]

Now I am wondering if I am posting to the correct list.
I guess it's not the list I intended to post to.

Anyway, when I filled this form out
http://www.mflan.com/temp/clip1.jpg
and clicked on "Run as Batch Process", it produces a
blank box:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/clip2.jpg

I didn't know what to do with that, so I did the same:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/clip3.jpg
but clicked on Run in Background, and it gave an error:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/clip4.jpg

But it did create a USAroads shape file.  When I loaded it
it appeared to be blank, even though it is 10.9 MB:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/clip5.jpg

So I tried to find Feature (26).
I believe it is this one:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/clip6.jpg

If anybody has the patience for all of this, the
layer files are here:

http://www.mflan.com/temp/roads-north_america.zip
http://www.mflan.com/temp/statep010.zip


BTW, judging by other shape files I have found in my
records, I think I have successfully clipped roads in
the past.  I just don't remember how to do it now.

Perhaps I need to create only one, single polygon for
the lower 48 states as a first step??  I will work on
that for now.

[Qgis-user] Clip Lines (Roads) with Polygon (States)

[Mike Flannigan]

Like so many others I would like to clip a roads
layer to contain only roads within my polygon.  Is
this really the easiest way for me to accomplish that:
https://api.queryxchange.com/q/23_212335/clip-or-intersect-lines-to-polygon-with-qgis/

Yes, I see that there are a lot of possible ways
to interpret "clipping a line with a polygon",
but it seems like this should be easier than that.


This is provided in case anybody can use these:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/cliptest.qgs
http://www.mflan.com/temp/cliptest.qgz

Of course I don't just want it clipped, I want
a simple clipping procedure that users like me
can use.

I am using QGIS 3.2 for Windows.
Thank you.

I downloaded your data. Using qgis 3.4.2 on Windows I opened the two 
files.
I then tried Vector Overlay -> Clip and got an error for invalid 
geometry on feature 26.

I then ran Vector Geometry -> Fix Geometries
I then ran the clip using the fixed layer and succeeded in producing a 
clipped roads files. The shapefile is about 1.25M

Re: [Qgis-user] Export data to scale

[Mike Flannigan]

I can't help you.  I didn't know OCAD could import a
shape file.  That is good to know.  I see OCAD 8 will
not import a shape file.  Presumably OCAD 10 will, and
maybe OCAD 9 will too.

Hope you find an answer.

Hello,

I am Thierry and I’m a French Qgis user.

My main use of Qgis is related to orienteering mapping.

Qgis is connected to a tile server and I’m mostly vectorizing contour lines, 
roads, constructions to create a ground map before collecting data on the field 
with my iPad.

The ground map and collected data are processed on a special dedicated software 
called Ocad.

In Ocad I can import georeferenced ESRI shape files .shp

I was doing this with Qgis2 and the scale was OK by exporting (saving as) the 
symbology to a determined scale 1:10 000 with a perfect result.

Since Qgis3 this option disappeared and the result gives me a bad scale even if 
my scale in Ocad is set to 1:10 000.

I’m searching for months now and can’t find anything to solve this.

Does anyone have a clue how to manage this in Qgis3 ?

Last thing maybe important, I’m running Qgis on a Mac.

Thanks for your help.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS and GeForce

[Mike Flannigan]

I like what Nicolas said about this.

On a Windows desktop I upgraded from a Nvidia
Quadro P4000 graphics card (~$700)to a Geforce
GTX 1060 graphics card (~$550) almost 2 years ago.
I noticed a pretty good boost in performance, so I
assume the latter card is better than the former,
despite the costs shown.

Probably the greatest difference noticed was when
panning or zooming in and out with a Bing Maps QMS
layer turned on.

Re: [Qgis-user] New Coordinate Conversion Tool in Lat Lon Tools

[Mike Flannigan]

That is an amazing plugin.?? Thank you.
It is going to help me out a whole bunch.

I like that you have lat,long, and not long,lat in
the DD format.?? Outside of the plugin, in the status
bar at the bottom of my Windows QGIS, and across from
"Coordinate:", QGIS lists long,lat in the DD format.
I've been trying to change that to lat,long but have
been unable to do that so far.?? Anybody know how to
do that?

The coordinate conversion box is incredible too.
Very nice design.?? The only thing I would like to
do that I cannot figure out is to change the DMS
format from
44??22'20" N,86??1'11" W
to
442220N086111W
But I can easily do that with scripts outside of QGIS,
so it is no big deal to me.

Now I am going to look at your Search Layers plugin.
I think I have a need for that too.

Thanks for all you do.

Hi folks,
I'm sure there must be some "easy" solution, but hours of searching
provided no examples I could learn from to develop a solution:

I have a point layer of bird observations and a GPS-track recorded while
observing the birds in an area.
For the interpretation of the findings it would be good to easily find
out, from which position the recorded observation was taken.

My idea was to compare the timestamp of the bird point with the
timestamps of the track points, but I run into huge obstacles right at
start:
I know that I "could" query across layers by the expression aggregate().
Unfortunately, the docs on that is so sparse, that I have not the
slightest idea how to even start with that
(https://docs.qgis.org/testing/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/expression.html?highlight=expression#aggregates-functions)

Ok, in case I could find out how to properly use aggregate, how do I
best compare those time stamps?
The layers derive from gpx-files and QGIS identifies the time tag as
QDateTime.

As it is not very likely that a bird observation was recorded at the
exact same time as a track point was generated, there is no way to
actually compare the values, cause the bird time value will always lie
in between two track point values.
What kind of query can be used to identify those two trackpoints ?

In short: How can I identify/highligt/mark track points that have a
timestamp close the selected point in another layer?

I already created a question on this on gis stackexchange with a
screenshot,but no reactions so far.

When snapping is turned off the "Copy Latitude, Longitude" functions as
normal. When snapping is enabled and hovering close to a vector layer
vertex or segment as specified by "Snapping Options" then the "Copy
Latitude, Longitude" tool will copy the precise location of that vertex to

Try installing GDAL

This isn't likely to fix your problem, but it won't

[Qgis-user] GeoTiff Viewer

[Mike Flannigan]

I have been using Global Mapper on Windows
for 15+ years.  I am now on Linux Mint.

I want a simple viewer that can open multiple
Geo Tiff files (just 1 to 4 7.5' topos), copy
cursor coordinates to the clipboard, zoom to
coordinates passed to the program, and perhaps
measure linear distance.  Something simple and
fast.  For more complicated things I usually
use QGIS or GoogleMaps, or sometimes even Google
Earth.

I'm going to try OpenEV real soon.  The last
time I used it on Windows (10+ years ago) I did
not like it much, but it did work.

I welcome suggestions you may have.

Dear list,

Currently, when I load a geojson into QGIS, and modify the geojson file
using an other software, the change isn't reflected in QGIS. The only
way to reflect the change is to re-add the layer, or to run
`iface.activeLayer().dataProvider().forceReload()` in the python console.

I see could find neither a button or menu to trigger a reload manually,
nor the option to do it automatically, nor a way to disable caching of
such layers (which anyway would be suitable for very small layers only).

Ideally, I was looking for an option like the "refresh layer at
interval" options from the layer properties>rendering dialog (that
option seems to just re-render the file, without reloading it, so that
it doesn't work for my purpose).

Thanks !

Re: [Qgis-user] Movement patterns

[Mike Flannigan]

I think Stefan has already given you a better answer
than the one I have.  I turn lat/long points into linear
geojson's in a single text file (outside of QGIS) and
then import the geojson into QGIS.  However, in my case
there is no timestamp, so it's probably not what you want.

On the other hand, geojson will take timestamps:

Hi all,

I have a series of GPS coordinate points and i would like to connect these

Can someone help me figure how to present this data on Qgis.

Re: [Qgis-user] Problems with development version

[Mike Flannigan]

This is probably not what you have in mind, but
I was really surprised over the last few days when
the latest QGIS would not install on my Ubuntu OS.
I am new to Linux.  FileZilla installed without
issues, but multiple Qgis versions:

Release for Ubuntu
Release with ubuntugis-unstable dependencies
LTR

All had problems with dependencies.

I guess this will contribute to keeping me on
Windows for a little while longer :-(

I noticed the install website:
https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#debian-ubuntu
changed during my attempts to install QGIS, but
the changes did not make it work.  I will keep
trying over time.

I abandoned Ubuntu and went with Mint.
It installed immediately with just

and
sudo apt-get install qgis python-qgis qgis-plugin-grass

So kudos to the 64 bit Tina Cinnamon Mint crew.
A little dingy to the Ubunto crew.

Hi Mike,

Have you tried using the qgis.org repo  rather than the Ubuntu-gis unstable 
dependencies one? I use that on my laptop (Mint 19.2) and its been working just 
fine for the last year, yet to experience any issues (except the key expiring, 
which was a simple fix).

You can also get QGIS as a flatpak 
(https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.qgis.qgis), requires a few terminal 
commands to add flatpak support (https://flatpak.org/setup/Ubuntu/).  I'm not 
aware if there are any plans to provide QGIS as a snap in the future?

Re: [Qgis-user] Installing QGIS- 3.4.x Madeira LTR for Ubuntu xenial

[Mike Flannigan]

I have your exact same problem, except I tried to
install QGIS 3.10 after uninstalling my QGIS 2.18.
I am on Linux Mint 19.2.

When I go to the directory: /usr/share/gdal
I have a folder "2.2"

My sources.list file located here:
/etc/apt/sources.list
has this inside it:

#deb cdrom:[Linux Mint 19.2 _Tina_ - Release amd64 20190729]/ bionic 
contrib main non-free

deb https://qgis.org/ubuntu/ unstable main
deb-src https://qgis.org/ubuntu/ unstable main


The output of the 2 install commands is shown below.

The problem is that I try to install QGIS 3.10 and I
wind up with QGIS 2.18.

If I get this problem fixed I'll let you know what
I did.  I'm not real motivated to fix it right now
since QGIS 2.18 meets most of my needs.

Thank you.

Re: [Qgis-user] Installing QGIS- 3.4.x Madeira LTR for Ubuntu xenial

[Mike Flannigan]

About a week or so ago I did a manual update called for
on my Linux Mint panel.  It put both QGIS 3.10.0 and
QGIS 3.8.3 in Software Manager.  I first tried QGIS 3.10.0
and it failed on dependencies.  So I tried QGIS 3.8.3
and it installed great after I uninstalled my 2.18 version.
So I have been using QGIS 3.10.0 for about a week now.

Thank you.

Re: [Qgis-user] Layouts --> Show maps in irregular polygon

I'm thinking you can make polygons shapes with

will be alternating between clockwise and counter
clockwise nested polygons.

Hi Bob,
There is a link to unsubscribe below. BTW, I like your idea.  AutoCAD has this. 
 You could make a feature request in the bug report

By the way, can we make polygons shapes with holes or islands??? If so, you can 
probably use the transparency to simulate what you need.

No, there's no way to achieve this properly using current
functionality. To do it properly we need to ensure that the map
rendering respects the actual shape of the layout map, and doesn't try
to place labels or other symbology effects outside of the actual
visible area.

project CRS is EPSG:3857.

The transform failure message provided a link to download the grid shift
file ntv2_0.gsb. I clicked the link which downloaded a zip file. I
extracted only  ntv2_0.gsb from it and browsed to it using the "Install
ntv2_0.gsb from Folder..." button. It installed with a message indicating
success. I closed and reopened the project as directed, and selected the
geotiff file layer. There was no error but the canvas was obviously far
from the rest of my project (SE US). I zoomed to the geotiff layer and
selected the Google satellite view. I zoomed out until I recognized the
area as being northern Africa. Approximate center coordinates
were: 32.78461469, -0.00187768.

The projection file GA_Hightower Bald_245924_1988_24000_geo.tif.prj
contains this:

PROJCS["Transverse_Mercator",GEOGCS["GCS_North_American_1927",DATUM["D_North_American_1927",SPHEROID["Clarke_1866",6378206.4,294.9786982]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],UNIT["Degree",0.017453292519943295]],PROJECTION["Transverse_Mercator"],PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",0],PARAMETER["central_meridian",-83.562918],PARAMETER["scale_factor",1],PARAMETER["false_easting",0],PARAMETER["false_northing",0],UNIT["Meter",1]]

Previously, I had not even downloaded the .prj files because QGIS seemed to
handle the geotiff files with no problem. I tried downloading the tfw and
prj files but it made no difference. I also tried to set the CRS for the
geotiff based on the prj file and that gave the same result.

I think that after installing the grid shift file, there is no error
detected but the transformation fails.

Has anyone had any experience with USGS geotiff files and QGIS 3.10.1?

A download link for the files above is:
ftp://rockyftp.cr.usgs.gov/vdelivery/Datasets/Staged/Maps/HistoricalTopo/GeoTIFF/GA/

Any help to solve this would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Re: [Qgis-user] rasters on different hard drive become unavailable, paths not saved properly?

[Mike Flannigan]

I can't reproduce that on Linux Mint 19.2 and QGIS 3.10.1.
Everything works fine when I include a shape file and a
geotiff from another drive:
/media/mike/main1/DDrive/GIS/Shape Files/MO

I reopen the project and it opens fine every time.

Message-ID:<418d7732-a785-4cb3-9fa2-6beb9cb18...@www.fastmail.com>
Content-Type: text/plain

Hello,

I'm just getting (re)started with QGIS (version 3.10.2, on Ubuntu 18.04). I 
have some big raster files that I will be using for several projects. I have a 
second 2TB hard drive on my computer where I store them. I put symbolic links 
to them in the folder for a QGIS project. This worked fine - I was able to add 
them to the project, complete some analyses (merge, ruggedness, align etc), and 
save the resulting rasters.

However, when I re-opened the project, all the symbolic linked rasters appeared 
as unavailable layers. It looks like the paths to the symbolic links were 
replaced by relative paths to the linked files themselves (e.g., 
../../../enm/worldclim/na/wcna_01.tif). This path is not correct, the actual 
file is at /media/data/enm/worldclim/na/wcna_01.tif, and the symbolic link is 
at ./data/wcna_01.tif, relative to the QGIS .qgz project file.

I thought that the problem was using symbolic links, so I added one of the 
rasters using the full path to the file on the second hard drive. When I saved 
the project, closed and re-opened it, this layer was also listed as 
unavailable, with the same path listed for the corresponding symbolic linked 
file.

Then I discovered that projects can be set to use absolute or relative paths. 
This project had been set to relative (the default). So I changed it to 
absolute, and corrected the datasource for one of my unavailable layers. That 
worked for the session, but after saving and reloading, the path had been 
stored as /home/tws/enm/worldclim/na/wcna_01.tif, which is an absolute path, 
but not the correct one (see above).

The rasters and shapefiles that I created as part of this project, saved in the 
same directory as the .qgz file, work fine, and are available between QGIS 
sessions.

Is it not possible to have files on different physical hard drives in the same 
project? Have I done something wrong here?

Best,

Tyler

Hi Mike,

I created an issue in it's own issue tracker:

https://github.com/sourcepole/qgis-openlayers-plugin/issues/67

In short: the commercial, non 'free' services like Bing and Google are
throwing issues:

The use of these services is most of the times license-wise-seen a
little dodgy anyway. Better use OpenStreetMap or other reference data.
If you really like/need Google or Bing (which you according to their
licences probably are not allowed to use their tiles out of their own
api's...) you can use the alternatives Alexander notes.
In QuickMapservcies, load the non-free services via menu
Web/QuickmapServices/Settings tab 'More Services'.

Some url's to use for xyz layers, if you want dodgy:

ArcGis:
http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Topo_Map/MapServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}.png

Google Map:   https://mt1.google.com/vt/lyrs=m={x}={y}={z}

Re: [Qgis-user] Dumb USGS geotiff questions

[Mike Flannigan]

It may sound like I know what I am talking about,
but you may not want to make that assumption.

Everything is working fine for you.  Older USGS
topo maps (~1980 and earlier) are in NAD27 datum.
Newer maps (~1990 and newer) might be in WGS84,
but I'm not sure about that.

I'm thinking if you change your datum to NAD27
that deviation may go away.

I believe the older files can be changed to WGS84
with GDAL if needed, but I generally just leave them
in NAD27.  In MO, where I normally work, the difference
between NAD27 and WGS84 is pretty small - roughly the
amount shown on your maps.  I would expect it to be
higher where you are working - near Oakland, CA:

Subject: [Qgis-user] Dumb USGS geotiff questions
Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"

(Resending, with screenshots as google drive links, to cut down message
size.)

I am running 3.12.1-București on a mac, os-x 10.14.6. My knowledge of GIS
is rudimentary, I've learned what I need to, to satisfy my curiosity about
my region, using old maps.

I have downloaded all the USGS maps for my region - Oakland, CA, USA, which
corresponds to "CA Concord" - from USGS topoView, in geotiff format.
Opening them in QGIS gives fairly wild offsets; they are not all encoded
the same way, yet have common corners. Features on the map vary with what
modern maps show, but getting their corners right would help me a lot.

If I create a new project, set my CRS to WGS 84 / Pseudo-Mercator
(EPSG:3857) as I think is correct for my base map, Google Maps (EPSG:3857 -
WGS 84 / Pseudo-Mercator - Projected) then Layer > Add Layer > Add Raster
Layer > Raster Dataset > CA_Concord_465520_1943_62500_geo.tif > Add, I get
prompted with:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FKVPrHLtXXKK8a-QTTz3IigT9dpj1Hou/view?usp=sharing

I don't know what to choose, here. I chose the first one. I've tried
others. The tif.prj file does say
DATUM["D_North_American_1927",SPHEROID["Clarke_1866",6378206.4,294.9786982]],
which I am guessing conforms to NAD27. If I add an opacity slider to the
new raster layer, set its opacity, and then use the Zoom to Coordinate
panel to navigate to 37º45'N 122º15'W, I find that the point is off from
what's on the map, see:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/10vYtcM1FZ-vdS3z1FPW2EYbrNy2sj65L/view?usp=sharing

This is similarly true at the top left:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/18naBKuwk6rZ9DP0tFOZxnGKlIpRQgDKM/view?usp=sharing

Also, note how the map shows two lines at top left, it's true at top right.
This is something to do with projection, I think. I've tried to
georeference these lines, to get them to line up right, but which
intersection do I use, when there are two vertical lines intersecting with
the top, horizontal border, to reference 122º 15' 38º 00' ? I've had mixed
results, trying to use deg-min-ss coordinates to georeference these; I get
a map off the west coast of Africa. Using points on the map is more
successful.

All the maps have slightly variant values in their tfw files. Their prj
files are more uniform, but also show variations. I'd like to normalize
them all, so that I can view the USGS topo maps for my region over time.
Advice?

Thanks,

Morgan

Re: [Qgis-user] 2019 USGS 7.5min topo sheets

[Mike Flannigan]

Much to my surprise I think you are correct.
QGIS can open a TIF file (and a zipped TIF file),
but I can't get a GeoPDF to open in QGIS.  If I
convert the GeoPDF to a TIF with GDAL, it still
will not open and gives error "Missing Codec".

Very surprising.  I know from past experience that
Global Mapper v6.04 will view TIF files that have
been converted from GeoPDF via GDAL.

It sounds like you downloaded a new USGS product format called the GeoPDF. The

I would try downloading the map in a different format. I don't know what site you are 
using, but the USGS TopoView site (https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/topoview/) has the maps 
available as JPEG, KMZ, GeoTIFF, and GeoPDF. I would recommend the GeoTIFF format as all 
versions of QGIS support that.

[Qgis-user] Migration to Linux

I moved to Mint, which worked immediately from the

correcly.  I worked quite a while on installing QGIS
on Ubuntu because I really wanted to use Ubuntu.

[Qgis-user] QGIS Update Does Not Work

I am on Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon.
When I try to update QGIS with the Update Manager from

It first gave this error:

But now it gives this error every time:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/qgis error2.jpg

I changed the local repository and still get the
same error.

My ver 3.10.10 works fine, so this is not a big
deal to me.  I just thought I would mention it
hear in case it is a problem for others besides me.

I successfully updated my main machine to ver 3.14
more than a month ago, so perhaps this is just a
recent error that has developed.

Re: [Qgis-user] Road Labels

[Mike Flannigan]

Thanks for this procedure Thayer.
I use Overpass Turbo to plot tracks along roads.  It is somewhat
of a complicated process, but it works.  Perhaps I should be
using QGIS to do this instead.

But since I currently reply on the Overpass Turbo website, I am
looking for an alternate website that does the same thing.  I want
to prepare for the day when Overpass Turbo disappears (or moves).

So this email is a 2 part question.

1) Are there any other websites that do what the Overpass Turbo website 
does?


2) Do you have any suggestions on a better way to get a track plot along
roads, when you feed the program just a few vertexes along the road route?

My convoluted procedure to get tracks along roads is shown below.


Mike



THE New Procedure for Tracks is:

Create a text file with DD lat/longs that looks like this:
38.891953, -94.714428
39.961945, -95.788242
42.263043, -96.481528
42.874940, -97.140297
43.095141, -98.332987

This is generally created from taking each point from Google Maps.


Then run googmaptrack.pl to create a google maps URL like this:
https://www.google.com/maps/dir/38.891953,-94.714428/39.961945,-95.788242/42.263043,-96.481528/42.874940,-97.140297/43.095141,-98.332987


Paste that URL into a browser and make sure it is the correct route.
If not, add more intermediary points to correct the route.


Then run trackosrm.pl to create a bunch of terminal commands that
curl an OSRM URL like this:
curl 
'http://router.project-osrm.org/route/v1/driving/-104.062500,46.498392;-94.714428,38.891953?alternatives=false=nodes' 
>/home/mike/Documents/copy5/procout01.txt


Paste the whole string of terminal commands into a terminal to create
all the procoutXX.txt files.


Then use trackosrm2.pl to process those procoutXX.txt files
to extract all of the node numbers to nodes.txt.  It will
create an output that looks like this:

[out:json];
(
  node(77927832);
  node(77927830);
  node(77927828);
  node(77927826);
);
(._;>;);
out;

YOU NEED TO ADD THOSE FIRST 2 LINES AND LAST 3 LINES.


Then paste all those nodes and to this website:
http://overpass-turbo.eu/

Hit the Run button at the upper left.

Then hit the "Data" tab at the upper right and copy and paste the data 
supplied

into a file like latlong.txt.

Use garminfile.pl to extract the lat/longs to TopoUSA format.


Unfortunately, curl does not keep the items in order.  So we need
to change the trackosrm.pl 'out' file above that looks like this:
curl 
'http://router.project-osrm.org/route/v1/driving/-118.799440,37.663330;-118.592720,37.671850?alternatives=false=nodes' 
>/home/mike/Documents/copy5/procout01.txt
curl 
'http://router.project-osrm.org/route/v1/driving/-118.592720,37.671850;-116.855740,38.125510?alternatives=false=nodes' 
>/home/mike/Documents/copy5/procout02.txt


and change it to this:

firefox 
'http://router.project-osrm.org/route/v1/driving/-118.799440,37.663330;-118.592720,37.671850?alternatives=false=nodes'
firefox 
'http://router.project-osrm.org/route/v1/driving/-118.592720,37.671850;-116.855740,38.125510?alternatives=false=nodes'


by using this:
find /home/mike/Documents/copy3 -maxdepth 1 -type f -iname 
"track2_out.txt" -exec grep -il -Z "driving" {} \; | xargs -0 perl 
-i.bak -pnwe 's/curl\s(.*) >.*/firefox $1/g'



Then copy each firefox command into the terminal and copy the web page 
output

into an 'order.txt' file, remove the beginning and ending lines, so we only
have the node lines.  Then do a search and replace - search for 
"^\d+\s+" and

replace with nothing.

So order.txt has nothing but node numbers (in order) in it.

Then use trackorder.pl to reorder all the procout.txt files created above.


Then use trackreduce.pl to reduce the number of points with the Douglas 
- Peucker algorithm.



Then use geojson.pl to create a geojson file to use in QGIS to see what 
the track looks like.

  Hi Wanda,
There are ways of filtering Open Street Map data before you download it, so the

0) Close applications that you do not need, and open a web browser.1) Go to the Overpass Turbo website and use the search and zoom controls

Hi Wanda, and welcome.

That is old information.  Please uninstall the Open Layer
plugin and install QuickMapServices plugin instead.

I hope that is good advice because that is my advice.

Hello,

I am a new user and I am trying to add a satellite layer to a project
in QGIS 3.14 (non-MAC pc).  I need to be able to do this on a regular basis
so I am trying to learn how.

The steps I have taken are following this tutorial:
https://www.geodose.com/2017/08/adding-free-satellite-imagery-layer-qgis.html

The image is added to my project but I get these errors:
1) for development purposes only shows up on the layer

2)  I get this message log error:

There should be a script somewhere where you could set this and it

[Qgis-user] Multiple Layers

[Mike Flannigan]

Linux Mint QGIS 3.12.3-Bucuresti.

I have a qgs file with about 470 layers.
Roughly 100 of those layers are grouped together in
7 groups.  All layers are SHP or geojson.  Most
are geojson.  I cannot have all the layers on, but
I can have most of them turned on.  It takes a
couple minutes to load all the layers upon startup.
It counts down slowly from about 30 layers remaining,
to 1 layers remaining over ~3 minutes.

If I have all the layers turned on it either bombs
and closes while I am turning on layers, or a partial
artifact window appears over the Layers panel and
it freezes.

I thought it was because my geojson files had very few
newlines, and looked like this:

"type": "FeatureCollection",
"crs": { "type": "name", "properties": { "name": 
"urn:ogc:def:crs:OGC:1.3:CRS84" } },


"features": [

{ "type": "Feature", "properties": { "id": 133, "name": "Some Trail" }, 
"geometry": { "type": "LineString", "coordinates": [ [ -71.701964, 
44.138121 ],  [ -71.702024, 44.138155 ],  [ -71.702079, 44.138192 ],  [ 
-71.702147, 44.138216 ],  [ -71.702209, 44.138248 ],  [ -71.702266, 
44.138285 ],  [ -71.702327, 44.138316 ],  [ -71.702391, 44.138346 ],  [ 
-71.702463, 44.138354 ],  [ -71.702547, 44.138356 ],  [ -71.702611, 
44.138397 ],  [ -71.702644, 44.138447 ],  [ -71.702695, 44.138441 ],  [ 
-71.702749, 44.138447 ],  [ -71.702813, 44.138450 ],  [ -71.704207, 
44.137891 ],  [ -71.704354, 44.137890 ],  [ -71.704502, 44.137856 ] . . .



But when I added newlines after every lat/long pair it did
not fix the problem.

I welcome any recommendations.  Including migrating to
a geo DB format.  I imagine if I combined my geojson's
into just a few files it would fix the problem, since
I have another qgs file that combines 290 geojson files
into a single geojson layer and it always works fine.

Actually the question was about GeoPDF import -- which should work

Re: [Qgis-user] Multiple Layers

[Mike Flannigan]

Thanks for the response.  I think when I double
the ulimit to 2048 I am not really doing anything
positive for QGIS.  I think it is just increasing
the ulimit for the terminal window, since each
terminal window appears to have its own ulimit.

Doubling the ulimit to 2048 also doesn't appear to
fix the problem.

I notice that when I turn on layers the CPU goes to
100% and stays there for a minute or more (in htop).
If I let it settle back down to near 0%, then QGIS
keeps working.  If I keep clicking layers QGIS
freezes.


I think my system is fairly beefy, but maybe not:

CPU:   Topology: Quad Core model: Intel Xeon E5-1630 v4 bits: 64 
type: MT MCP arch: Broadwell

Anyway, this problem is not hindering my work too much.
I will let you know if I find a good solution to it.

Hi Mike,
you probably encounter the "max file opened by your system" issue. And shp

Best advice is to switch to DB connexions, which do not open any file and
removes this limit

[Qgis-user] QGIS 3.16 Installation on Linux Mint

[Mike Flannigan]

Linux Mint (LM) is a fork of Ubuntu, so LM users
normally use the Ubuntu install commands located here:
https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#debian-ubuntu

The command on that website that has given me problems is
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://qgis.org/debian `lsb_release -c -s` 
main"


People who know more than me say that `lsb_release -c -s` returns
"tricia", which is unknown to the QGIS repo.  Only the Linux Mint repo
knows the LM 19.3 nickname tricia. The rest of the world needs to be
given the Ubuntu nickname bionic instead, because LM 19.3 tricia is
based on Ubuntu 18.04 bionic.  So they tell me to change that command to
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://qgis.org/debian bionic main".
That worked for me.

"So what" you may say.  We say it is for Debian and Ubuntu, not LM.
That is true, but there are apparently more Mint users than either
Ubuntu or Debian users:
https://distrowatch.com/

I just wonder if that line should be changed to
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://qgis.org/debian bionic main"

If not, then maybe there is another way to correct this problem for
LM users.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS 3.16 Installation on Linux Mint

[Mike Flannigan]

Thanks.  I am using the Flatpak ver 3.10.12 out of the LM
Software Manager.  I've been using it for quite a while and
it works great.  The problem is, my Update Manager keeps
upgrading QGIS (most recently to 3.16), but I cannot find
it or run it.  You can read the details here:
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=47=335784

Synaptic package manager says I have 3.16 installed:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/synaptic.jpg
but I have looked hard and can't find it.
'sudo apt-get purge QGIS' does not get rid of 3.16.
Software Manager says I have 3.10 Flatpak installed, but
not the regular 3.16.1+28bionic that is also listed in
the Software Manager.  If I try to install 3.16.1+28bionic
it fails immediately on package dependency problems.

So my system keeps updating, but I am left with only 3.10 to run.

Perhaps Flatpak 3.16 will come along eventually.  Or maybe
I will uninstall 3.16 from Synaptic package manager and then
try to reinstall 3.16 from Software Manager or from the
QGIS website.

If I did the Flatpak on this site
https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#flatpak

Those instructions are what brought up this issue.
Apparently
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://qgis.org/debian `lsb_release -c -s` 
main"

is good for Ubuntu, but not Linux Mint.  For LM use this instead:
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://qgis.org/debian bionic main"

Right now I am using QGIS quite a bit and I can't do with out.
When I get a break I will try to get the QGGIS version 3.16
on the LM Software Manager to install.  If that doesn't work I
will follow the QuickStart procedure modified to bionic.

I have used those QuickStart procedures successfully in the past.

Thanks so much.
'/etc/upstream-release/lsb-release' contains:

DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=18.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=bionic
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 18.04 LTS"

So that sure does answer #2 - at least the Ubuntu part of it.
System Info lists OS: "Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon".  Sure wish
they had "tricia" listed there too.

Oops.  /etc/os-release does list Tricia (and tricia):

ID=linuxmint
ID_LIKE=ubuntu
PRETTY_NAME="Linux Mint 19.3"

Thanks so much for your help.

I guess this is the best I found on the internet:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_version_history
Except you would use "Bionic Beaver" if you referenced that.

The Linux Mint history:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Mint_version_history
is also not exactly right.
We Linux people know that Tricia ne tricia.
Lots of holes to fall into when doing this stuff.

Re: [Qgis-user] Toggle Attribute

[Mike Flannigan]

Thank you.  I did get an Action to operate today.  My action also
uses a Google Maps link.

I can click on "Identify Features", which opens a "Identify Results"
panel.  Then I can click on a feature in that layer, open Actions
in the "Identify Results" panel, and click on the action, which
runs the action.

Now I'm trying to make the action more accessible.  Am I correct
in my assumption that the button just to the right of "Identify Features"
should list my Action in the dropdown list?  So list stuff like this:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/action1.jpg
Figure 5 was taken from:
https://www.geodose.com/2018/04/qgis-tutorial-how-to-create-action.html

When I click on that little black triangle on the button just to the right
of "Identify Features" it shows an empty, white box.  When I click on the
button is doesn't do anything.  When I hover over the button it says
"no action selected".

Ideally I would like for the action to run if I just click on the feature.

Hi Mike,

Just create an action with something like this to see it in action:

https://www.google.pt/maps/@[% @click_x %],[% @click_y %]

This will open google maps at the place you clicked. If you want to get
something from the action called, you have to capture its output (and
return the right value from your script).

As Richard said, start with the default actions and you will see
different kinds of things that can be done with actions. Capturing the
clicked X,Y is straight forward.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS 3.16 Installation on Linux Mint

[Mike Flannigan]

Thanks Chris, I really appreciate the response.
Sure sounds like an area that could use some improvement.
I suspect there is a good reason why Linux Mint (LM) 19.3
cannot be called bionic instead of tricia.  So first question
is how do I cross reference names and numbers (i.e. Ubuntu
bionic = 18.04).  I did some looking.  Is LXR needed for that?
I also went into 'Release' and 'InRelease' on that website, but
could not cross reference bionic to 18.04.

Second question is how do I cross reference between Ubuntu and LM?
i.e. LM 19.3 tricia is based on Ubuntu 18.04 bionic.

I'm still looking.  I will report this if I find it.

As far as Ubuntu goes, bionic = 18.04, cosmic = 18.10, disco = 19.04, 
eoan = 19.10, focal = 20.04, groovy = 20.10, xenial = 16.04 and 
precise... wow that's 12.04 which has been unsupported since 2017.  
Well anyway.


Not to mention the Debian users which have the selection of buster, 
jessie, stretch, trusty and unstable.


Not to mention the Mint users using Ulyana which is AFAIK based on 
Ubuntu 20.04 (focal)?


So probably hardcoding it to refer only to the Ubuntu 18.04 / bionic 
distro and thereby also satisfying the Mint folks on tricia would 
cause a lot of surprise to quite a lot of users.


Also please remember that there are lots of other Ubuntu (and Debian) 
derivative distros that can likely use the appropriate Ubuntu distro.

Re: [Qgis-user] Vote for Lat Lon Tools Default Coordinate Order -, YX or XY

[Mike Flannigan]

I too like lat,long, but I can live with anything that is done.
I'll just set it to lat,long.

I understand the thinking to change it to X,Y.  Many people
in the field would agree that is better.  I'm just not one of them.

I use this tool constantly.  Thank you.

It was suggested to me that the default coordinate order in the Lat Lon

on-line maps which are generally "latitude, longitude" order.

You can always go into the plugin settings and specify which order you want
and that order will be preserved everytime you launch QGIS. The default
order is only applicable the first time you install "Lat Lon Tools" or if
you do a reset to defaults in the Lat Lon Tools settings menu,

Who prefers Lat Lon Tools to default to "longitude, latitude" or "X, Y"
when the plugin is first installed or reset to default values?

Who prefers Lat Lon Tools to default to "latitude, longitude (Google map
order)" or "Y, X" when the plugin is first installed or reset to default
values?

I'm just checking to see if I should make this change or not.

Re: [Qgis-user] Loss of data

This is a great idea if she is on Windows.
Right click on the folder and select previous versions.
Then just selectively drag and drop files from that

Backups - backups.  At home I have no fewer than
6 backups around me.  Even on the road I have 2 - 3
backups with me at all times.

[Qgis-user] QGIS Update Does Not Work

[Mike Flannigan]

Duplicate post - this one with correct links:


I am on Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon.
When I try to update QGIS with the Update Manager from
ver 3.10.10 to 3.14
http://www.mflan.com/temp/update1.jpg

It first gave this error:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/qgis_error1.jpg

But now it gives this error every time:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/qgis_error2.jpg

I changed the local repository and still get the
same error.

My ver 3.10.10 works fine, so this is not a big
deal to me.  I just thought I would mention it
hear in case it is a problem for others besides me.

I successfully updated my main machine to ver 3.14
more than a month ago, so perhaps this is just a
recent error that has developed.

Re: [Qgis-user] Road Labels

[Mike Flannigan]

Thank you Thayer and Richard.

The Openrouteservice.org GUI map did not work for
my Firefox.


Graphhopper is nearly perfect for what I want, and
I really appreciate you bringing it to my attention.
It's going to save me quite a bit of time.
This is the link I am using:
https://graphhopper.com/maps/

The GPX export of the track is exactly what I need.
The GUI is great.  I rarely have more than a dozen
intermediary points along the track, so I'll probably
just create the URL I need to get the output I need.
Or maybe I will dive into the API, but I hate these
API keys that always seem to be turned off, and I'm
supposed to beg for another one.

QuickOSM appears to have a lot of promise too.
It's on my list to investigate.


Thanks again.

  Hi Mike,
I am glad this helped you.
I am going to punt on this since a similar question about how to do routes in 
QGIS was asked recently, and I think it received some answers, you should be 
able to find it on the QGIS-user Nabble archive.
That said, my initial thought is that instead of using Google you might want to 
do your routing on websites or API's that are based directly on OSM data, for 
example Graphhopper or Openrouteservice.org that will allow you to export 
routes as GPX. You can then use Douglas Peuker to simplify. If you are looking 
for a more automated way of doing this you may want to dig into the API's for 
those sites.

I suspect the developers are taking note of this

Now I could use some help in how to open this GeoPackage.

I also tried Project - Open From - GeoPackage, but no-go.

I'll do some more research on this later today.

[Qgis-user] Couldn't load SIP module

[Mike Flannigan]

I have been using QGIS a lot recently.  All of a sudden
it gives "Couldn't load SIP module", which is a Python
problem with QGIS that has been around for many years.

I TimeShifted back about 3 days and the problem is solved
for now, but I just wanted to get this recorded.

Here are a few write-ups on the problem, some very recent:

Ignoring the error message allows QGIS to start, but then
you don't have the "Lat Lon Tools" plugin, and a few other things.

Re: [Qgis-user] Couldn't load SIP module

[Mike Flannigan]

See my write-up below on the SIP module loading problem.
I am no longer OK.  Apparently the TimeShift back
only temporarily fixes the problem.  So every plugin
available to me is this short list:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/plugins.jpg

All I can figure is most QGIS users don't use plugins
(not likely) or this problem is affecting less than
10% of QGIS users.  Otherwise I suspect this would be the
biggest issue discussed on the list.  I don't even know
what to work on - QGIS or Python.

I am on QGIS version 3.14.16-Pi.  I guess I will go forward -
to ver 3.16.0 at first, then backwards if necessary.  I would
welcome a 3.16.0 user who does not have this problem to
state that on this list.  I welcome any suggestions.

I am on Linux Mint 19.3.

Re: [Qgis-user] Selecting Multiple Layers in a Single Click

Selecting multiple layers works good for me.  Is there any way
to unselect (uncheck) those multiple layers without having to
group them, and without having to uncheck each one individually?


Mike

No, it's not a single click operation (qgis has no way to know how many
layers you want to choose). But you can use the "shift" and "ctrl"
techniques I mentioned before and click the "toggle selection" to simplify
checking multiple layers in those interfaces.

I often use the "select all" option and use the CTRL+click to deselect
unwanted layers. That makes it quicker when selecting the majority of large
layer collections.

You can hold the CTRL button and click a layer to toggle it's selected
status to add or remove it from the selection.

You can then add them to a group or drag their order on the ToC, but to
toggle all layer visibility you will need to use the hide/ show selected
features option from the layer visibility drop down in the layer panel.
