Kosmo-Plataforma SIG libre corporativa - Home Open Source Tool Sets for Creating High-density Maps A few weeks ago I wrote about some of the building blocks available to create engaging maps in Drupal . The module ecosystem around maps and other geospatial functionality is pretty flexible, but there are some situations where Drupal might not be the best fit. There are some great tools out there to build out sites when the situation calls for little else besides a map display, or when processing and rendering tens of thousands of geospatial features. In this blog post, I’m going to talk about two in particular, Mapbox and CartoDB . Mapbox Mapbox is a great map building tool that allows for the creation of pre-rendered mapping displays with a set of web-friendly tools. Styling maps in Tilemill is handled through a language called CartoCSS , which shares many syntax similarities to CSS and Sass. CartoDB CartoDB is a mapping stack that has many similarities to Mapbox. Like anything in life, there are tradeoffs. Real-word Mapping Example: Finding Apartments in NYC Step 1. Step 2. Step 3.

A Beginner’s Guide to pgRouting Please read the new instructions for pgRouting 2.0. The aim of this post is to describe the steps necessary to calculate routes with pgRouting. In the end, we’ll visualize the results in QGIS. This guide assumes that you have the following installed and running: Postgres with PostGIS and pgAdminQGIS with PostGIS Manager and RT Sql Layer plugins Installing pgRouting pgRouting can be downloaded from www.pgrouting.org. Building from source is covered by pgRouting documentation. Start pgAdmin and create a new database based on your PostGIS template. Creating a routable road network The following description is based on the free road network published by National Land Survey of Finland (NLS) (Update January 2013: Sorry, this dataset has been removed). First step is to load roads.shp into PostGIS. pgRouting requires each road entry to have a start and an end node id. Next, we create start and end point geometries. (This can take a while.) I recommend adding a spatial index to the resulting table.
OpenJUMP GIS Gephi makes graphs handly Geospatial Analysis - spatial and GIS analysis techniques and GIS software GFOSS - Free Software GIS at your fingertips Cartographica | The Macintosh GIS ArcGIS for AutoCAD Overview ArcGIS for AutoCAD is a free, downloadable plug-in application for AutoCAD that provides interoperability between AutoCAD and ArcGIS. Within the AutoCAD environment, you gain easy access to GIS maps in the form of map services, image services, and feature services hosted by ArcGIS Enterprise, or maps, imagery and feature sources you discover on ArcGIS Online. Additionally, ArcGIS for AutoCAD allows you to edit ArcGIS data created locally within the AutoCAD drawing or exported from ArcGIS Desktop. Use ArcGIS for AutoCAD to Access GIS data inside AutoCAD.
Drive Time Isochrones – An Example Using Finnish Airports Site analyses can benefit greatly from using “drive-time” isochrones to define the study area. Drive time isochrones are often significantly different from simple buffer areas which disregard natural barriers such as rivers or slow roads. Of course, creating drive time isochrones requires more input data and more compute-intensive algorithms than a simple buffer analysis. It is necessary to create a routable network graph with adequate weights to be used by the routing algorithm. One of the most popular routing applications in the open source world is pgRouting for PostGIS enabled databases. The first step is to find the closest network node to every airport: Then, we can calculate drive times between network nodes and “airport nodes”. Every following node is done with an INSERT: Afterwards, I combined the values to find the minimum drive time for each network node: The resulting point layer was imported into QGIS.
