Saka,

Feel free to browse the MapWindow forums here: www.mapwindow.org/phorum and 
possibly post your question there.  We have a very large .NET open source GIS 
developer community there who may be able to help.

Hi all. 
I'mnew to this mailing list. I want to write a program in .NET environmentand i 
need some classes to do feature classification.
I mean getting a point shape file, classifying it based on a Z value and 
convert it to raster.(some kind of Interpolation)

Anyone knows anything open source to do this? 
Thanks in advance.

RE: [OSGeo-Discuss] Proposal: OSGeo Cartographic Library

 GDAL has feature style specification: 
 http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_feature_style.html It has 
 recently gained some new interest.
 


Well, GDAL is close to the FOSS4G community so why not start with this
and see where we can go? I think OSGEO even has some capable expertise
somewhere in the organization that may have a few thoughts (SMILE).

I'm interested in learning more if anyone has some experience. How could
this be incorporated into the worflow?

Cheers

Dave,

In my opinion we would be better off starting with a widely accepted
standard like SLD as a basis of a feature styling standard rather than
the ideosyncratic OGR feature styling specification.  If anything, I'd
like to phase out the OGR feature styling in favor of something else
more widely supported at some point in the future.

Best regards,

 I'm right now looking at SVG. It is a full graphics description 
 language, but maybe the styling information could be somehow picked out 
 an reused for our purposes. SVG is becoming more popular and for example 
 many symbol sets (also mapping symbols) are already in SVG. Thus we'd 
 also need tools for parsing SVG.

SVG *isn't* a rule language: SVG is one possible output of taking a Rule
language (SLD), combining it with geography and attributes (GML,
Shapefile, what have you), and creating a final product.

Other products could include raster images  (PNG, JPG), Other vector
formats (VML, Canvas in the browser, PDF, PS, .ai), or encodings into
things like KML.

 If the stylings that are distributed with geodatasets are SVG, then 
 producing SVG maps would be easier, wouldn't it?

I'm not sure this really makes sense. 

SVG is a style language. SLD is a Rule language. SLD is the source: SVG
is the destination (one of many).

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Proposal: OSGeo Cartographic Library

2008-04-15 Thread Bart van den Eijnden (OSGIS)
One addition to what Chris points out, to complicate things :-), SVG 
vector symbols can also be used inside an SLD document (for a Mark).


To be even more precise, we are really talking about the Symbology 
Encoding (SE) spec here. SLD as of version 1.1 only deals with the 
integration of symbology encoding into WMS. Symbology (and the rules) 
was taken out of SLD since it is more generic than only WMS. But most 
current implementations still use SLD 1.0 where all is in one spec.

[OSGeo-Discuss] AAG Boston OSGeo Social Meetup

2008-04-15 Thread Christopher Schmidt
AAG is happening in Boston this week, and in an effort to make some
things happen, I'm planning to have a social meetup this Thursday with
anyone who is interested in coming.

 Time: Thur, Apr 17th, 7:45PM
 Place: Grendel's Den, Harvard Square, Cambridge
 Who: Anyone interested in Open Source Geo
 Why: To get together to chat socially about stuff over some beer
  and bar food.

Directions:

Get to Harvard Square. Head south on JFK street past The Garage on
your left. You will cross Mt. Auburn St. On the Southwest corner is a
small open green space: on the opposite corner from JFK is the entrance
to Grendel's, below  Upstairs on the Square.

I'll be there, hopefully by 7:30, with an eeepc and an OSgeo shirt on.

See ya there,
