Hello,<br><br>Some clues<br><br>(2) I have looked for existing PyQGIS custom applications without success.<br>
Do any exist?<br>>> Quantum navigator <a href="http://www.mapserver.sk/%7Ewonder/qnavigator/">http://www.mapserver.sk/~wonder/qnavigator/</a><br>>> OpenOceanMap <a href="https://launchpad.net/openoceanmap">https://launchpad.net/openoceanmap</a><br>
The two examples are listed from the "Desktop GIS" book (see below for reference)<br><br>(3) Does anyone have suggestions for how best to proceed (i.e. is there a<br>
good book on the QGIS and QT APIs?)<br>>> Desktop GIS: Mapping the Planet with Open Source Tools <a href="http://pragprog.com/titles/gsdgis/desktop-gis">http://pragprog.com/titles/gsdgis/desktop-gis</a><br>Some infos about Qgis plugin programming (some pages about, see table of contents to make choice)<br>
>> Python cookbook <a href="http://www.qgis.org/pyqgis-cookbook/">http://www.qgis.org/pyqgis-cookbook/</a> (I supose you're already aware of it...)<br>>> Rapid GUI Programming with Python and Qt <a href="http://www.qtrac.eu/pyqtbook.html">http://www.qtrac.eu/pyqtbook.html</a> (the best one on PyQT)<br>
>> GUI Programming with Python: QT Edition <a href="http://www.commandprompt.com/community/pyqt/">http://www.commandprompt.com/community/pyqt/</a><br>>> PyQT documentation (right navigation bar) <a href="http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/">http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/</a><br>
