​The steps for sharing resources is documented on
http://www.akbargumbira.com/qgis_resources_sharing/author/creating-repository.html

Your case seems to be similar to Richard's resource collection, which you
can find at ​
https://github.com/rduivenvoorde/qgis-styles/tree/master/collections/osm/svg

As Andre mentioned, it's probably easiest to create such a Github repo.

Best wishes,
Anita

I guess that github is a good address for such purposes.
It is free, and you don't need an account to download then.

And many parts of QGIS are already hosted there.

Hi All,

  I just ran across this:
http://www.iogp.org/Newsroom/News/postid/27/shell-releases-its-standard-legend-to-industry-and-academia

It doesn't contain much of an official usage license (other than the 
words on the web page), but it looks like the fonts and styles are free 
( both gratis and libre) to use.  Unfortunately the styles are in ESRI 
.style format but there are PDF docs with details so some conversion may 
be possible.


Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

Re: [Qgis-user] Geological Symbols

[Patty Rehn]

Thanks so much for the geologic symbology. I can actually get this to work
in my map. Very good strike and dip and more. I really appreciate the fact
that I do not have to figure out to make an adequate symbol.
Excellent work and very nice of you to share.

Again, thank you.

Re: [Qgis-user] Geological Symbols

[Andrea Peri]

Hi,

this is the link to the package with our Database Geological of
Tuscany Region. it also has a qgis project and the full set of
geological SVG symbols.

http://www502.regione.toscana.it/geoscopio/download/geologia/dbg/DBG_REGIONE_TOSCANA_NOVEMBRE_2014.7z

If you are interested to only the SVG you could refer to only the
specific folder inside the package.

The symbols are study explicitly for a scale 1:10.000

If you are interested also to the rendering solutions for all the
layers of our DB geologicalyou could see the QGIS project.

Please before to opne the qgis project you NEED necessarilly to set
the correct pth forward the svg.

The Dataset are all in a set of spatialites db.
The QGIS project was developed for a QGIS 2.6 version.

Regards.

Ho,
The Tuscany Region has develope a full set of geologica symbol ad SVG and
all usabile in the qgis software.
They are all cc-by and are downloadable with him geologica database and a
qgis project.
Unfortunately the project need some settong to be used and the instructions
are in italian language.
But the SVG symbol of course are all usabile.
If you are interested i could send you a link to download from our internet

This brings down to the very long standing issue of having a style and
symbol repository, much as we have plugins. I'm convinced this would
greatly improve usability of QGIS, and collaboration among many more users.
Anyone willing to support this, either with code or sponsoring a
developer? In case, please write here, or contact QGIS-PSC.
All the best.

Re: [Qgis-user] Geological Symbols

[Randal Hale]

That was my first thought this morning - there are plugins. The devs 
work furiously to bring us quality software. I try my best to test and 
submit bugs and help


Maybe a thought would be symbology - ESRI is a symbol rich environment. 
I made mention on my blog at one point about QGIS and Symbology and that 
has been the top ranked hit on the blog for 2 years running.


How hard would it be to build a symbol repository: Geology. 
Transportation. National Parks. Standard symbols that people need in a 
less restrictive licensing environment? QGIs has a lot of symbols - 
maybe that could be expanded in a more constructive environment?

Hi Grant,

you can download a pretty good free svg dataset of geological textures (70),
geological symbols (70) and fossil symbols (30) here:
http://www.teuderun.de/freie-software/texturen-symbole/

It is a german source, but I guess geological symbols are global.

[Qgis-user] Geological Symbols

I am seeking a set of geological symbols to annotate geological maps. I have
found some svg files from the USGS but there does not seem to be simple dip
and strike, or other basic geological mapping symbols. Can anyone point me
in the right direction here? I assume I am looking for svg files?

Re: [Qgis-user] Geological Symbols

[Ramon Andiñach]

As a stop gap you could use the styling of your points.

So for dip you could have a marker symbol that is a horizontal line __ and a 
second marker symbol that is a vertical line | to give a combined _|_ symbol. 
(I can do you up a screen shot if you want)

Then you just need to rotate to fit. (and get your head around cartographers 
and geologists thinking about rotation differently!)
