Once you build it on your workstation, you can deploy them in the field through QField. From here, you can download the Collector app and use it out in the field. They also go hand-in-hand with Survey, where you create forms for users to fill out.
I believe it does have a free trial or AGOL storage limit to test out beforehand. I am looking to map out the valves and manholes for our water and sewer departments.
It would be great if the maps could then be usable out in the field on a phone with live location readings. Would any of these programs fit the bill? Lets say one wanted to generate semi-high res contour maps of a rolling area of land. Mark Volz I have software that does not require installation, but it is basic to view cad and shapefile files. This week there will be a new version with some improvements. Is anyone aware of any GIS software that run without being installed?
This way, in the event of an emergency we could allow volunteers the ability to quickly spin up GIS in the field without concern about needing local administrator rights.
I am aware of the OSgeo4W project, but I would prefer something less complicated that can run on Windows. Hi I read BSc. Thank you. First, you have to geocode the addresses. Here are some options how to do that. Next, you can intersect these geocoded addresses to the precinct layer. This will attach the precinct attributes to the addresses. I am a software developer but new to shapefiles.
I have addresses and a shapefile of county voting precincts. My batch query would be to return the precinct number for a given address.
Hi, I have an old GIS product called Infomap not MapInfo which does the simple tasks I want to import and display different layers by year and other criteria of flight survey centre points over a map base. Can anyone recommend a suitable programme please? Many thanks.
Hi, I am on a project that requires me to map down the disease cases. I would like to see the high risk area and low risk area. Besides, I also need to map the target location recreation area so that in the end I am able to see either the high risk disease area that is overlapping with the target location. Kindly suggest which GIS software I should use. I am a geologist currently use Mapinfo 8. I am thinking of migrating to QGIS. A key issue in geology is the third dimension and having symbols e.
Discover was written to accompany Mapinfo a good time ago to do this but again one pays through the nose to buy it and its upgrades. Your idea for using Google Earth to map out golf courses is one of your best options. Google Earth creates KMZ files. From here, you can create maps, analysis and general data management. After downloading the contributed packages, you will be able to web services from Google and Bing.
Are there any open data hubs for where you live? The other option is the crowd-sourced OpenStreetMap Data. The data needs to be to scale where I can add template grids or symbols to a layer and retain the scale relative to the geography e. I also need to be able to save distances or dimension to different places with annotation. I presume all of the packages above import data from Google Earth.
Is there any other source where accurate data can be imported? I have spent a lot of time over the past 35 years developing the OzGIS mapping system. For the first ten years it was a CSIRO research project, and after that a private development project. I do not want to see my efforts wasted, so would like everyone who is interested in mapping to be able to use OzGIS. I have released all the source code so it can be further developed.
OzGIS should be of value to users who are interested in the display and analysis of attribute data like Census demographics, government statistics or business data, and who use Census data in applications like site selection, territory definition and catchment analysis. There is a community flag flown all over the world. I would like a simple GIS or online mappping tool where individual contributors can pin their video or photo with a few data items — showing the flag in action.
Rather than one person myself mapping the lot via a spreadsheet for uploading to an online map publicly available. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks any help appreciated!
Addendum to question above … QGIS looks great, actually much more powerful capabilities than our simple needs — can it export maps created in it to pdf format? Hi, Thank you for your review of mapping programs. Does anyone whether any of these free programs can do things like converting a landxml file to a tin?
What about tin to raster? These are the two most common tools available under the 3D Analyst set of tools in Arc that I use. Our company has 2 licenses and they are always in use. I would love it if one of these programs has these tools so that I can do these conversions whenever I need to, it would help me immensely.
Does anyone know anything about this? A simple platform is best because they are not tech-savvy. Any suggestions? I have a 15 year old grandson who is totally smitten with geography and mapping on a global scale. Hi, I have never used any other software than Google Earth in mapping. Can you help me with this, please? Hey I want to develop an application to find out the source of signal transmission from SDR placed at various geographical locations. The system collects the direction of signal and the data from various sources is collected to find out the location of transmission through triangulation on map.
Which GIS package can help to develop this application? And how? As a field ecologist most of my mapping requirements can be achieved using Google Earth or similar. These will need to match ortho-photos. I also would like to work with the LENZ data set, This has 15 raster layers covering the whole of NZ on a m grid with numerically defined environmental parameters. If possible I only want one gis system, preferably one that is reasonably intuitive as my level might be described as 1 day introductory with ArcGIS.
Appreciate any suggestions for software. It seems to me that most if not all of the software listed above follow the Arc project system.
Are there any that let you get straight into the data and then save your collection of data files afterwards? I am adding to them everyday so I was wondering what would be the best way to do it. I have uploaded them to the iCloud but it may to slow to generate maps with such a large data set. My mac is just about out of memory and iPhotos and Photos struggles to cope. In fact, you can do this with the newest release of QGIS 3. Hi I am a mature student doing my dissertation on tidal and wave renewable energy structures in the Bristol Channel off the Welsh Coast.
I am new to GIS. Can someone tell me please if there is a free open-source GIS software package that I can upload onto my laptop windows 10 to allow me to view 3D images of the seabed off the South Wales Coast?
You would first have to georeference your image. Next, you would have to vectorize the roads. Depending on how many roads, there are automated ways to do this like with ArcScan.
