Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Does osgeo provide infrastructure for non-incubating projects?
Hello, Other Spanish Language Local Chapter (OSGeo-es) members and I as the OSGeo-es Liaison Officer, encouraged Fernado to start this topic in the list. Fernando and Victor are well known members of the Spanish FOSS4G community and is a common opinion that the project is very promising.

[OSGeo-Discuss] FOSS GIS Clients for ArcGIS server
I am a FOSS GIS advocate trapped in a proprietary GIS world. My organization manages several ArcGIS servers and we provide a Flash based map viewer (http://geonb.snb.ca/geonb/). We are exposing the ArcGIS REST services (http://geonb.snb.ca/ArcGIS/rest/services), however we are not providing any OGC services. Are there any FOSS map clients that can consume the ESRI ArcGIS REST services? Thanks, Bernie. -- Bernie Connors, P.Eng Service New Brunswick (506) 444-2077 45°56'25.21N, 66°38'53.65W www.snb.ca/geonb/http://www.snb.ca/geonb/ ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Best software for making TMS tiles
Ok to answer my own question: mapserver and mapnik both will work if you are willing to spend acres of time learning and fiddling with thier respective rulesets. I tried the quantamnik plugin and the resemblence between the qgis view and the mapnik view was horific. Not really much more use than getting you started with mapnik xml. Theres no two way portability path. Once youve hand edited the xml theres no going back, its a one way trip. These packages are designed for full time mapmakers. However one easy option for single or limited zoom level use-cases i finally found here: http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/3718/save-as-image-in-qgis-output-options viz: There is also a way to get a high-resolution image with world file: With QGIS from command line you have the option to create PNGs in any size including world files. Available options are: [--snapshot filename] emit snapshot of loaded datasets to given file [--width width] width of snapshot to emit [--height height] height of snapshot to emit [--project projectfile] load the given QGIS project [--extent xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax] set initial map extent You have to prepare your project first and then create a snapshot. eg. C:\Users\MyUser\QGis_Projectsqgis --snapshot italy.png --width 1500 --height 1000 --project italy.qgs After that gdal2tiles/maptiler and you are away laughing. HTH someone. Peter Peter wrote: I havent been able to figure out how to turn a QGIS map into tiles. The reason i want to do this is because our hardware isnt capable fo running a wms (low ram, hdd), but with a bit of hodge and podge we can host the TMS tiles using S3. The only options ive been able to find so far are: qgis, mapserver export to mapfile qgis, quantamnik, mapnik. Both involve setting up variations of WMS which seems overkill to me. With mapserver how would i tell it to just do the render and forget the whole wms thing. With mapnik, that should work but the version in Debian Lenny is really old, and im not sure if it will work at all. The thing is Qgis has a lot of raster rendering tools, like save as image, which saves the screen area and includes a world file but doesnt allow you to set the resolution, print composer which does allow you to set the resolution, but doesnt save a world file and includes borders and stuff, and doesnt save a world file. I feel the function im looking for is there but hiding? Save map as geotiff... Then i can use gdal2tiles to make the pyramid. Actually it might be a rather large geotiff, maybe a direct to tiles approach is better.
