[OSGeo-UK] OpenData and QGIS

[Suchith Anand]

Saber, Matt, Thanks for this.

Could i request all of you to upload any interesting case studies like this to ELOGeo repository  at http://elogeo.nottingham.ac.uk/xmlui/

We have now created a new section called case studies. Now Google Scholar (and Google itself) have indexed the ELOGeo materials. (we have nearly 1000 visitors from all over the world just in the last few days to ELOGeo repository).

Anthony, please upload any relevant OSGIS case studies you have to ELOGeo case studies section. Thanks.

Suchith

Hi Saber,

Looks good. The increased interaction that we've been having with the Ordnance Survey is really positive. Last week I ran a workshop on behalf of Astun which covered using the OSMM Loader<https://github.com/AstunTechnology/osmmloader> loading into PostGIS and this week Tim Martin at the OS has been experimenting with loading significant amounts of OSMM into PostGIS using the OGR PGDump driver. Details of using PGDump can be found here: https://github.com/AstunTechnology/osmmloader/tree/master/postgres/pgdump.

Cheers,

Matt.

Dear list

During our free workshop for QGIS and OpenData, most of the users were
interested in having an absolute beginner's guide to download and use
OpenData.

We have put together a page for starters to be able to use the free data
from Ordnance Survey in a Free and Open Source Software.

And load MasterMap in QGIS:

Hope it helps
Saber
