The fun continues as I walk though the change log for qgis 3.30. I'm running a bit behind - So lets talk widgets. QGIS introduces new widgets to help in data entry. Lets talk about the Text Widget. The TN911 project is starting to get some complicated menus and one...
I'm behind. I feel like Raster Attribute Tables have been a thing and I've not had to use them so I just ignore it. After doing a bit of digging it looks like this has been a thing in QGIS and ESRI Software since about 2018/2019. I grabbed the National Landcover...
Did you ever get writers block? I did..well and still do. So after spending a few weeks "stuck" - I've decided to work my way through (as much as I can) the changelog for QGIS 3.30. I may talk later on "small business owner's block" (at least that's what I call it)....
Flash back 12 or more years ago and I was siting with a new found group mapping Bike and Bus "things" into OpenStreetMap in Chattanooga. About the only thing I remember is we tagged designated lanes as "CHA:bicycle=designated". It was a lot of fun and ultimately...
So with everything else that's been happening this week I decided to try out one more thing on this project and that was Mergin Maps. I've been reformatting the whole project to make it simpler. Right now I have a working database, almost working wiki page, and menus...
I haven't talked about this in a while - but incremental work continues. So I had a question "Can you get the NENA 911 Standard working in QGIS?" The answer is a long "Yes". NENA has published a repository with a postgresql portion - and in two scripts you have a...
So back in November I started talking about the new ability of QGIS to edit ESRI File Based Geodatabases. Technically it could before that date with an ESRI library add-on. Luckily more work went into the OpenFileGDB driver and here we are. I'm pretty sure when I...
So in other news - I'm a partner with Mergin Maps. I also mentioned this is the year I'm providing an offramp for the ArcMap users. So to cover even more bases - NRGS is headed to Memphis for the Annual TNGIC Conference. We will be teaching a workshop on Day 1 (April...
The Exploring (Intro) to QGIS class is coming March 22-23 2023. Two things are happening this go around with the class: updating it to 3.28 and you're getting some new chapters. The whole plan for the class is to get you up and moving and using QGIS. I've always taken...
It's been a bit since I've announced anything "new" - and this is. North River Gerographic Systems is now a Mergin Maps Partner. If you've been around for any length of time you've seen "QGIS On Mobile". AS of right now that comes down to: Qfield and Mergin Maps. Both...
If you look at the entirety of my career the satellite imagery portion has always been lacking. I've always been fascinated with satellite imagery like landsat BUT I've never used it in any official capacity like running a classification. My first 10 years in GIS was...
It's that time again. How did this year stack up compared to other years? If you float back to the 2020 post I was about to jump off the nearest bridge. 2021 was a bit more hopeful as I was finally implementing a business plan that was doable. So what happened in...
