<p>Hello Calvin, Greg and users ml,</p>
<p>> Great place to ask IMHO.</p>
<p>Big +1.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p> Greg, all your proposed topics are very interesting for me. <br>
</p>
<p>For your information, we (with Jean-Marie Arsac) have started
to develop a QGIS plugin Topaze [1] to answer some of these
requests or to answer them in the next versions. <br>
</p>
<p>This is a new component in our suite of plugins to go from land
survey to GIS integration.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
It is not yet made officially public (on the plugin.qgis.org
repository) but it will be soon.<br>
<br>
<p> Contributions are welcome and we are listening to proposals.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>All the best,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Loïc</p>

Great place to ask IMHO.<br>
<br>
These is a combination of a suggestion and a fish for an
answer that<br>
tells me no work is needed. I don't know how widespread the
audience is<br>
relative to your standards.<br>
<br>
1)<br>
<br>
Consider someone with a local coordinate system establish
with a total<br>
station or similar classical methods. No assumptions on
orientation of<br>
axes, except up is up. Let's assume there are perhaps
hundreds of<br>
points. Perhaps this is just a data collector dump and
perhaps it is<br>
gama output.<br>
<br>
Further assume the person has absolute positions
(lat/lon/HAE) probably<br>
via GPS RTK, and perhaps standard deviations.<br>
<br>
I want to be able to enter the correspondence, and compute a<br>
transformation that can be not only used in qgis but stored
in a file to<br>
be used with proj/gdal. And, I want to store the
corresponding points<br>
so that I can re-open, change some, and add some, without
starting over.<br>
<br>
There is a geoscience plugin that mostly does this but it
seemed awkward<br>
for reasons I don't remember this minute.<br>
<br>
<br>
2)<br>
<br>
Similar, but assume someone has a survey plan with angles
and distances,<br>
and somehow (in a new plugin or separate) converts them to a
local<br>
system (because one can ~never assume the angles are true to
any<br>
particular geodetic coordinate system). Given 1, this is
about entering<br>
the angles/distances and turning it into a layer, I think.<br>
<br>
There is a cadastral plugin but it seems to be about taking
a shape and<br>
producing documents, vs taking documents and producing a
shape.<br>
<br>
<br>
3)<br>
<br>
With RTK, one can take 30s, 60s, whatever position traces on
a mark.<br>
Then one can average those. Multiple such observations over
multiple<br>
days can then be combined to form an estimate for the mark.
There are<br>
interesting questions here about finding the mark by being
close, vs<br>
labeling, and not labeling is a faster workflow. I'm doing
this<br>
manually but it would be cool to be more automated.<br>
<br>
