It is feasible if QGIS exposes those algorithms and they are documented. I tried myself to implement the GPS processes in QGIS, but I could not find any docs about them, so I did not know how to call them. As loong as there is a way of calling them, they can be wrapped and included into SEXTANTE

I'm trying to use Sextante to convert a vector to a raster, but: - GRASS v.to.rast does not work (ticket open) Resolved in r198. Now there are 2 algs - GDAL rasterization is missing True. Maybe it should be added - SAGA and OTB do not allow easily to use an existing raster to define extent

Thanks for this - BTW, what is the utility of having the val parameter here? You have to tell GRASS which option to use. Instead of letting the user select it, it is hardcoded, giving just one option. I know it is not a very elegant solution, but it is what I can think of by now. Maybe I could

Sounds great to me. I have given you write access to the SEXTANTE SVN (as I told you, this might change to another location if it finally gets integrated into QGIS, but for now it will remain there, at least until the end of GSoC). Feel free to add your changes there so we can all start testing

Giuseppe This is awesome from the point of view of SEXTANTE. One of the biggest problems in SEXTANTE for gvSIG is that, if you have saved your results as temporary files, the project will keep a link to them, but they will be deleted once you exit the program. This problem appears also in QGIS,

If the interface is freezing, that means that GRASS is freezing (maybe it takes too long to process or the data is invalid). If you were passing wrong data, SEXTANTE would make a wrong call to GRASS and GRASS would produce nothing, which will cause SEXTANTE to fail afterwards showing an error

Please also remember that OSSIM is embedded in OTB, currently usable through SEXTANTE. And yes, an OSSIM provider would be very good to have. All the best. I did not know that. Then having OSSIM algorithms in SEXTANTE might be a bit redundant, right? Regards

Right. That's the point, SEXTANTE handles the graphical stuff and the integration in QGIS. The only thing the developer has to do to create a SEXTANTE algorithm is to write the algorithm itself, the processing part Regards El día 22 de abril de 2012 15:28, Peter Borissow peter.boris...@yahoo.com
