[Qgis-user] Data capture in QGIS with offline PostGIS

[Bob Basques]

Nathan, 

I've been thinking about something similar, using XAMPP.  Would need to add in POSTGIS, Mapserver (and/or the new QGIS Server) and QGIS. 

I'm interested in setting up a package like this for the same sort of things, data collection in the field.  I've been working with PostGIS for the last couple of months, and find it very sable, and have discovered some interesting capabilities during my configuration related to syncing databases, etc. 

Problem id, I don't have any one customer pleading for the this capability at the moment.  So I would need to steal away time to develop a proof of concept.   Do you have any possible funding for something like this?

Hi all, 



I'm currently looking at building a data collection program based on QGIS. One of the requirements is that it must have an offline datastore with syncing to the server on demand/timed. 



I have tried the Offline editing plugin but it's not quite what I was looking for. More looking for something that you press once and it syncs all the changes from upstream and downstream but leaves the project offline. The offline plugin currently returns the project to a online state when used and recreates the database when going offline again. 



Does anyone know of anything I can use with PostGIS? I have been looking at Postgres replication but it's looking like a real pain in the neck to setup. 



Regards, 

Nathan
