Last November, we used QGIS live tracking capability to collect precise ground-truth data using medium resolution imagery for complex land use pattern mapping. We simply overlay MODIS grids (vector format) and landsat imagery in QGIS. By overlaying the grids in QGIS we know our relative position on the ground with respect to each MODIS pixels. Then we orient our eyes based on the extent and direction of the pixels. We can accurately categorize the land use pattern for each pixel. And this helps us a lot, since we might be collecting/evaluating ground information for wrong pixels. We then use Add feature function to automatically grab the current point. Thanks QGIS!</span></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">-Leo</span><br></div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Mar 23, 2015 at 3:01 AM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:qgis-user-request@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">qgis-user-request@lists.osgeo.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Send Qgis-user mailing list submissions to<br>

My two cents - company I work in pays huge money for Arcgis, but Arcmap<br>
doesn't work with wmts. That's why I encourage everyone to use QGIS and<br>
they are surprised how good it is - for free they can use valuable<br>
public wmts data, what is impossible in Arcgis 10.2.2, 10.3....<br>
