Hi Pieter,<br>
On behalf of one of the communities you have drawn from, thanks for
the thanks. It is nice to hear that people make use of the work that
we do.<br>
<br>
Cheers, Cameron (from the OSGeo-Live project)<br>

<div>Hi guys<br>
<br>
</div>
I am posting this on three
mailing lists, but I also know
that some of you are involved
with more than one project.<br>
<br>
</div>
I would like to express my
gratitude to all involved in
osgeo-live dvd, ubuntugis and
orfeo-toolbox for providing
"ready-made" solutions for us
Open Source Geo users.<br>
<br>
</div>
I am doing a proof of concept for
work purposes on Open Source Geo
tools.<br>
<br>
</div>
I have done testing on Ubuntu 14.04,
and have installed or compiled from
scratch the most common tools and
applications.<br>
<br>
</div>
I have always been interested in ossim
and orfeo-toolbox (that includes
Monteverdi), and was looking at using
built packages.<br>
<br>
</div>
I have run into a bit of a problem when
I saw that there are no ossim-qt and
ossim-plugins in the osgeolive nightly
ppa, and that ossim in ubuntugis
unstable is 1.8.20, with no otb 5.2.<br>
<br>
</div>
I wanted to follow the osgeo-live
install-ossim.sh script.<br>
<br>
</div>
I then decided to use ossim and its friends
from osgeo-live 9.0, and then compile otb,
Ice and Monteverdi from scratch.<br>
<br>
</div>
Firstly, thanks to ubuntugis for providing
standard used packages, so that I do not have
to compile certain things from scratch.<br>
<br>
</div>
Secondly, thanks to osgeo-live for the install
scripts. I was dreading this part, but it was
easier than I thought. Ossim and co are running
without any problems, so now I have ossim and
its apps almost like on the osgeo-live dvd.<br>
<br>
</div>
Thirdly, to the guys at orfeo, for providing a
superbuild for compiling otb. I was also dreading
this part, but compilation went smooth, and I even
managed to compile otb just by using system
dependencies (no deps were downloaded by
superbuild install)<br>
<br>
</div>
So after some other experimentation, I have a real
working proof of concept that is sure to sway some
peoples minds in the way op Open Source Geo<br>
<br>
</div>
Just some bragging info<br>
<br>
</div>
Using Postgres 9.5, with Postgis 2.2.1 (compiled against
sfcgal)<br>
</div>
Pointcloud, pgrouting extensions<br>
</div>
Grass 7.0.2 (using the 7.0.1 install from ubuntugis, and
compiled in 7.0.2) <br>
</div>
QGIS Master from <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://qgis.org">qgis.org</a> (with ubuntugis-unstable
deps)<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>and various others such as pdal (compiled) just for the
heck of it.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Again thank you to all for providing ready built packages
and solutions, or providing source code that is easy to
compile!!!!!<br>
<br>
