[Qgis-developer] gvSIG mobile

[Joseph Reeves]

Hi Paulo,

Maybe you could also look at this version of gvSIG Mobile:

http://gvsigmobileonopenmoko.wordpress.com/

It runs on Linux (Openmoko, Maemo, my Ubuntu laptop) and features a
fair few things that don't appear in the official gvSIG Mobile.

Also, the gvSIG Mobile developers are working on an Android port [1].
Looking forward to seeing some QGIS development in this area!

Cheers, Joseph

> I studied a manula for the use of gvSIG mobile, as a possible source of inspiration
> for a future QGIS Mobile. I do not think it would be very difficult to produce it,
> mainly we have issues with interface size (shrinking everything in a small screen).
> What I found from the comparison:
> - we miss a live interface with GPS (but there are a number of programs we could link to)
> - we miss an export tool (from the desktop app they clip rasters and vectors to the
> current window, and send the reduced data set to the mobile device, cool feature)
> - digitizing may be ok as it is currently in QGIS
> - main limitation they have: no tiff, only a few EPSG, few languages, and *only*
> windows mobile, apparently
> So, overall I think we are well placed.
> All the best.
