Later the plugin was forked to support<br class="">a different geopackage exension - the owc geopackage extension<br class=""><<a href="https://github.com/pka/qgpkg/blob/master/owc_geopackage_extension.md" class="">https://github.com/pka/qgpkg/blob/master/owc_geopackage_extension.md</a>> - ,<br class="">which is standards-based; in this approach<br class=""><<a href="https://www.geocat.net/announcing-the-extended-geopackage-qgis-plugin/" class="">https://www.geocat.net/announcing-the-extended-geopackage-qgis-plugin/</a>> ,<br class="">the style is encoded as OGC:SLD and the project as OGC:OWS context. The goal<br class="">of this approach is to support the migration of GIS projects, as we can<br class="">implement this extension in any desktop or server side GIS (e.g.: ArcGIS<br class="">Desktop).<br class=""><br class="">The fork was merged in August this year, and the latest release of the <br class="">plugin <<a href="https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/QgisGeopackage/" class="">https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/QgisGeopackage/</a>> already contains<br class="">both extensions, covering both use cases of porting QGIS projects and<br class="">migrating GIS projects. Recently, it was added support in the core to the <br class="">"qgis geopackage extension"<br class=""><<a href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/providers/ogr/qgsogrprovider.cpp#L762" class="">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/providers/ogr/qgsogrprovider.cpp#L762</a>> <br class="">, in the qgsogrprovider class. This means that if a user loads a geopackage<br class="">which was encoded using the "qgis geopackage extension", it will<br class="">automatically load the QGIS project from it. We think that it makes sense to<br class="">also add the "ows geopackage extension" to the core; in that case, users<br class="">could load projects exported from other GIS software seamlessly, without<br class="">having to load the plugin. The mechanism would be very similar to what was<br class="">already implemented for the "qgis geopackage extension".<br class=""><br class="">Before preparing any Pull Request, we would like to understand first what is<br class="">the general feeling of the community about this feature; is this something<br class="">which seems useful and interesting to add to the QGIS core? If yes, we would<br class="">also appreciate any comments regarding any details the implementation.<br class=""><br class="">Looking forward to hearing your feedback :-)<br class=""><br class=""> Joana<br class=""><br class=""><br class=""><br class="">--<br class="">Sent from: <a href="http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/QGIS-Developer-f4099106.html" class="">http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/QGIS-Developer-f4099106.html</a><br class="">_______________________________________________<br class="">QGIS-Developer mailing list<br class=""><a href="mailto:QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org" class="">QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org</a><br class="">List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer<br class="">Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer</div>_______________________________________________<br class="">QGIS-Developer mailing list<br class=""><a href="mailto:QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org" class="">QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org</a><br class="">List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer<br class="">Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer</div></blockquote></div><br class=""><div class="">
