Hi, +1 from me for reporting tool for QGIS. This is important feature we missed in QGIS. I proposed this idea some time ago (about year or two) but didn't get much feedback. Now situation changed, much more peoples are interested in such tool. In terms of implementation, there is not only Jasper

Hi, I would like to have spatial aggregation (which can not be done with the usual report generators). For example aggregated statistics on point features inside polygons. Regards, Zoltan On Tue, 7 Jan 2014, Nathan Woodrow wrote: On Tue, Jan 7, 2014 at 9:06 PM, Andreas Neumann wrote: Qg

Hm, if you look at JasperReports it is Java. Can you implement this internally into QGIS? Looking at reports in general some kind of programming will always be needed to generate an individual report because the data structure is individual, too, so I think it will always be something for spe

Hi Luca, the need to create some kind of reports is often uttered. IMHO a dedicated reporting tool can always handle this better than anything implemented in QGIS or any other GIS (because it is not a main GIS feature). I successfully coupled a Python implementation of JasperReports [1] with
