[Qgis-developer] [SoC] beta release of Home Range plugin for QGIS

[Tim Sutton]

Hi Anne

Cool stuff I'm checking it out right now! I would suggest (maybe you
already did this) to include a sample dataset in svn so people who
dont have suitable data can still have a little play with it.

I'll give some more feedback when I have tried it out!

Regards

Tim

> It's a Python plugin for QGIS that estimates home ranges with different

> Here is the repository:
> svn://home.prea.net/svn/GSoC/
> 
> and here the information page (have a look at system requirements)
> http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/GSoC2008Rbinding
>
> in the repo there is a folder named 'pluginProva'.
> Download it in the QGIS user plugin folder:
> (qgis_prefix)/share/qgis/python/plugins
>
> run QGIS (better from a shell, control info and some error messages are
> still not shown in the GUI) and load the new plugin via Plugin Manager.
> That's all.
>
> The plugin needs radio-tracking data, i.e. points. A generic point layer
> is accepted; there must be a column that contains the same value for
> groups of at least 5 points.
>
> About requirements, I'll be glad if you test the plugin without Numeric
> and with different version of all software involved.
> Mac testing is particularly welcome.
> I'll be glad if you document any running configuration different from
> the one indicated in the wiki page.
>
> Before releasing the 1.0 version, I have to find a suitable name for the
> plugin.
> My first idea is 'homerangeR', but is already the name of another
> program (in different case: it's spelled HomeRanger).
