From ccampbell at digline.com Fri Jan 19 08:29:08 2018 From: ccampbell at digline.com (Craig Campbell) Date: Fri, 19 Jan 2018 16:29:08 +0000 Subject: [Qgis-us-user] Idaho Users Message-ID: <0584b800a5fd4cd99b6dc2d6eaf6d30d@MX01.Digline2009.local> I am in a MapInfo shop for the 811 - Call Before You Dig service in the lower 39 counties in Idaho. QGIS has become an essential tool on the technical side and I am researching how I might start replacing our MapInfo licenses with QGIS. I have 30 years of experience with ESRI products from 4.1 to 10.3 and the GIS community in Boise/Treasure Valley is dominated by ArcGIS. The current user Groups in the area don't provide a lot of useful interaction (although they are great people) due to the ArcGIS focus. If there are other QGIS users in the area, I'd like to get connected and see if we can help each other and potentially grow the QGIS community in Idaho. Holler if you are interest!

Message-ID: Hello Everyone, I apologize in advance if this question is a bit basic, but I am very stuck here. I am plotting a 900 point archaeological scatter, and those 900 points were all taken as distances and angles from a transit. The exact easting and northing of the transit was not taken from the field, but I do have multiple other given GPS points. So, I should be able to get the location of the transit from the vertex of two lines drawn back from the GPS points, and then be able to plug in the 900 points (artifact locations) based on that. So the question is, how do I plot the unknown point (transit location) based on two or more known points for which I have an easting, a northing, a distance from the unknown, and the angle from the unknown? And second: once I have the transit location, how would I calculate and plot those other points as a batch, based on their distances and angles from the transit, instead of inputting them individually? Thank you so much in advance for any answers you are able to provide, it is much appreciated.

The bug tracker issue tracker for QGIS has been under much discussion over the last year (or more). This topic has again been under renewed discussion these last weeks. The QGIS user group gets a vote on this. If you want some back history, it would be good if you read this thread from the QGIS Developer mailing list: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/QGIS-Developer- Last-call-for-switching-to-github-issue-tracker-td5349599.html The official vote is worded as: I agree to migrate to GitHub issues and deprecate the current Redmine tracker If you agree to this proposal, vote yes. If you vote "yes" here, we will disable the creation of new issues on the Redmine system, redirecting users instead to the GitHub issue tracker. We will keep existing issues on Redmine editable until they are closed. If you wish to hold out for an alternative option (e.g stay on Redmine which we currently use, or move to GitLab or some other platform), vote "no". In the case of a "no" vote we will raise a new motion until we find quorum. Give it some thought and reply to the thread or me with a YES or NO on switching to Github by this Friday. I will vote the QGIS-US group consensus this weekend.
