[Qgis-user] Qgis-user Digest, Vol 175, Issue 16

Many thanks, Garth, for your information. The areas I research include some
large protected areas in West Africa (The one I am working on right now is
15,000 sq km), so some rasters and polygons are humongous (> 2-4GB). I have
three external hard drives (4TB, 2TB, 1TB) plus iCloud, so storage, so far,
is not a problem. If miraculously, Mac Pro's (with AMD) price is slashed by
half (won't' happen), that would be ideal.

Best wishes,

Reiko Matsuda Goodwin
