[Qgis-developer] ESA Summer of Code In Space

2011-06-29 Thread Barry Rowlingson
Hi All, the European Space Agency has announced a Summer Of Code project, much like (but independent of) Google's SOC project: http://sophia.estec.esa.int/socis2011/ just thought maybe someone out there has some spacey ideas for Qgis - perhaps a tool to load Martian DEMs from the NASA web

Hi, One of the main activity of ESA is earth observation (not Mars observation), so I believe any project focusing on satelite data (imagery or radar) could be sponsored. Mayeul Le mercredi 29 juin 2011 à 12:12 +0100, Barry Rowlingson a écrit : Hi All, the European Space Agency has

no - I am not suggesting to implement this in the GdalTools plugin. QGIS uses gdal to load the raster, doesn't it? The QGIS raster loader should have an option to specify the resampling method used for the raster display. It is not the idea to generate new files with a different resampling

Hi Andreas It is probably a gdal option when loading the raster into QGIS and when redrawing the raster. It would be great to have a GDAL option for resampling. However, I don't think there is one. UMN mapserver seems to do the resampling in 'mapresample.c' (so on top of GDAL). Regards,
