6 | Peter Petrik | Mesh layer: why we need another GIS data type? | Development | Typically, in GIS, most of real world features can be described as a pixel or geometry. But with the ever-expanding GIS usage in other areas, there is a need for a data type on structured or unstructured meshes. Meshes are ideal to define meteorological, hydrological, oceanography and other data. Recently, we have developed MDAL as an abstraction library to handle various mesh formats. The library has been incorporated in QGIS 3.x. Supported mesh formats can be visualised in QGIS. We are in process of developing more tools to better manipulate and convert mesh layers in future releases of QGIS. | Prague | Lutra Consulting | info@lutraconsulting.co.uk | 2018-12-10 11:41:02 | Thank you for your proposal.

7 | Nourddin Quoulali | Measuring geographical accessibility to health services in Tangier province (north morocco) using open source software (QGIS) | QGIS Desktop | In the Tingitian peninsula, the centralization of human activities in the coastal zone has led to the marginalization of its hinterland, which has caused the isolation of these areas. Given the importance of roads in terms of citizens' access to social and economic services, they have been adopted as an indicator to measure the level of development of rural areas in the territory studied, their level of economic and social development, their degree of accessibility and attachment to neighboring areas and towns. In addition, it should be noted that geographic studies have benefited from the use of GIS technology because of the quality of their production in the study and analysis of the territory. We will try to study the territory of the municipalities of Tangier province in order to highlight the aspects of the access of the inhabitants of its patelins to the health services. And this, by specifying the duration necessary to reach his services according to the state of the roads like parameter of accessibility. This intervention aims to show, the role of Qgis and it’s plugin like online Routing Mapper as the one of software in geographical information systems in the study of geographical accessibility and the realization of cartographic works in order to present the results of the study. In addition, it should be mentioned that the importance of SGI lies in the production of scientific work similar to our study serving as a model for the implementation of programs to fight against isolation.

18 | Sergi Anguita i Rovira | OpenICGC: open strategies in public sector | Use cases | Open Data / Crowdsourcing / Collaborative Projects | As part of the Administration’s process of opening in a Knowledge Society framework, the Institut Cartogràfic i Geològic de Catalunya (ICGC) is working with the OpenICGC initiative to promote a new model of more direct relationships with citizens and professionals who work with geographic and/or positioning information.With this project, the ICGC also intends to enliven the geographic sector, in its more consolidated as well as its emerging areas, now that the geographic variable forms part of our daily lives. The project is bidirectional:• First, it offers the community the expertise in the area of positioning, visualization and analysis of data with geographic variables. It does so from a conceptual standpoint, and also in technical aspects of digital product and service implementation.• On another note, the ICGC listens to and learns from users’ real needs to generate new services relevant for them, while also harnessing society’s inertia to co-produce tools based on the products and services that the ICGC already has.The four key points to this strategy involve:• facilitating direct contact between ICGC users and specialists to understand their real needs and provide the best solution• assisting in an educational implementation of ICGC services, through tutorials, examples, presentations, prototypes, etc.• adapting the ICGC’s products and services to the feedback received for them to be truly useful and easy to use• disseminating the services based on the maps and geoinformation that the ICGC already has: official, detailed and free, as an alternative to the proprietary goods and services for profit from the main Internet players.One of the practical aspects of the Open ICGC initiative is the sharing of the source code of the Web and other app’s that the Institute generates. Users can access it in the code repository of the Autonomous Government of Catalonia (https://github.com/gencat). The opening of the code must allow its reuse by other developers and the generation of new applications and services, building added value to the work done by the ICGC for the whole of society. The digital services offered by public administrations are critical infrastructures in today’s society. Digital culture requires a co-production of goods and services in a community, which is this project’s reason for being.It is impossible to innovate unilaterally. Today the relationships that administrations establish with users must be bidirectional. We must be proactive facilitators who generate answers for the questions we are asked, and add the value of our expertise.The complexity of today’s world requires a diversity of thinking, viewpoints and ideas to understand problems and expedite their solutions. Past experience is not necessarily useful for the future. Creating and forming part of a community must enable us to keep being useful to the society we work for. This is the primary mission of the ICGC. | Barcelona | Institut Cartogràfic i Geològic de Catalunya | sergio.anguita@icgc.cat | 2018-12-20 17:52 | Thank you for your proposal.

19 | Sanna Jokela | Configuring INSPIRE schemas and digital land use planning with QGIS and PostGIS | Use cases | QGIS Desktop | City of Tampere has been the leading user of FOSS4G tools in city development in Finland. In 2017 the general land use planners started to crave for a digital solution for creating live strategic general plan for the city. The idea was that all the information regarding a land use object should be attached to the geospatial data feature and retrieved straight from the source: the history of the land use process, related decisions, memos, visions, follow-ups on the development etc. The general land use plan should be created also so that it would not be static and could live in a digital format along the planning process. In order to achieve this a database was developed taking into account the INSPIRE directive Planned Land Use schema. The database was modelled with pgModeller and stored in PostGIS and the model was openly published in GitHub. The database was designed to take into account different code lists, land use orders, themes, documents, source datasets, metadata etc. In 2018 we had the opportunity to test how QGIS could be used as a UI for accessing the general land use database. The idea was that no coding should be used since developing special tools would lead to possible version management issues. So we ended up testing how configuring the QGIS project file would work. Using QGIS plugin called Project Generator Tool, applying relations to the layers via QGIS project properties, configuring layer attribute forms and visualizations we came up with a solution for using the general land use database. Now the QGIS project has been tested and used by the land use planners in the city of Tampere enabling the digital land use planning efforts in the city. The ability of QGIS for creating attribute forms suitable for specific needs has been a huge asset to the project. The land use planners can also make modifications to the forms if needed and also if there is need to create new schema for the land use plan, they can easily configure the new parts themselves without any need for coding understanding. | Turku | Gispo Ltd | sanna@gispo.fi | 2018-12-21 | Thank you for your proposal.

20 | Benjamin Jakimow*, Sebastian van der Linden, Fabian Thiel & Patrick Hostert (* presenting author) | EO Time Series Viewer - A Plugin to explore Earth Observation Time Series Data in QGIS | Use cases | QGIS Desktop | Satellite missions like the Sentinels, Landsat or Pléiades provide Earth observation (EO) data with repeated and global coverage. These time series allow the identification and characterization of land cover and land use (LCLU) change, such as deforestation, burning, agricultural intensification, urbanization or long-term gradual changes of bio-physical properties. The simultaneous visualization of the different spatial, spectral and temporal domains in such time series helps to better understand change processes and is an essential step to identify and describe reference areas for model calibration and validation in many studies. Recently, several software tools have been developed to support the visualization of and feature extraction from time series data. Unfortunately, these are often bound to specific sensors, selected data sources, or specialized scientific workflows. They can usually not be utilized in flexible ways and especially the simultaneous and consistent visualization of data from different sensors is often not foreseen. Our major goals were to overcome these limitations by implementing a graphical user interface for an (i) integrated and interactive visualization of the spectral, spatial and temporal domains of raster-based EO time series data, (ii) which supports multiple sensors and various raster formats, (iii) allows for easy adjustment of visualization settings, (iv) can be used offline and eases the derivation of reference information based on vector data formats. Addressing users with different backgrounds and levels of experiences, we developed the EO Time Series Viewer to visualize and label dense multi-sensor time series data. It is implemented in Python, uses the APIs of QGIS 3, Qt5, GDAL 2.2 and PyQtGraph, and already became an official QGIS Plugin. We will demonstrate the EO Time Series Viewer and its data and visualization concepts using a multi-sensor time series of Landsat 7 and -8, Sentinel-2, RapidEye and Pléiades observations. In particular, we like to share our experience in using QGIS and the QGIS Python API for handling multi-sensor time series Earth observation data and provide ideas for future enhancements of QGIS. | Berlin | Geography Department, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Berlin, Germany | benjamin.jakimow@geo.hu-berlin.de | 2018-12-21 | Thank you for your proposal.

21 | Andreas Rabe, Benjamin Jakimow, Fabian Thiel and Sebastian van der Linden | Earth observation data processing in QGIS with a python API | QGIS Desktop | Free and open source software (FOSS) is becoming more and more important for the processing of Earth observation (EO) data. Reasons for this development are manifold. Yet, the availability of programming languages such as R, Python or Julia plays a major role in this context. These languages are easy to learn and used by many scientists who in the past may not have programmed for their analysis. At the same time the languages include very powerful and problem-oriented packages, enabling implementations even by relatively inexperienced programmers. In the general context of FOSS for analysing geodata, the release of QGIS version 3 marks a milestone. Its suite of available plug-ins and the interfaces to python make it a very powerful environment for EO data analysis. Nevertheless, the in-built python integration of frameworks like GDAL, Qt, and especially NumPy and SciPy is not fully completed with regard to the analysis of EO image data analysis. For example, the application of machine learning approaches like Random Forests or Support Vector Machines for regression as easy-to-use QGIS processing algorithm is still missing. We present packages for integrating the functionality of scikit-learn, the most-advanced package for machine learning in python, into the QGIS processing framework. These can be used by programmers to call a variety of machine learning methods on geodata and to develop their own QGIS processing algorithms with user-friendly, customized widgets to collect the parameters required to run their algorithms. The full potential of this integration framework is illustrated along the example of the EnMAP-Box 3.0. The EnMAP-Box is designed to process imaging spectroscopy data and particularly developed to handle data from the upcoming EnMAP (Environmental Mapping and Analysis Program) sensor. It serves as a platform for sharing and distributing algorithms and methods among scientists and potential end-users. The two main goals for the development are to provide (i) state-of-the-art applications for the processing of high dimensional spectral and temporal remote sensing data and (ii) a graphical user interface (GUI) that enhances the GIS oriented visualization capabilities in QGIS by applications for visualization and exploration of multi-band remote sensing data. In particular, we like to share our experience in using QGIS and the QGIS API for handling earth observation data in the context of machine learning and provide ideas for future enhancements of QGIS. | Berlin | Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Geography Department | andreas.rabe@geo.hu-berlin.de | 2018-12-21 | Thank you for your proposal.

Converting them by hand did not seem like a good idea. Tools to do the conversion with sufficient quality did not exist, but there was an interesting open source project in the embryonic state that had the objective of being able to convert ESRI symbols into QGIS symbols.

28 | Matteo Nastasi, Paolo Tormene | HyBridge: an open-source framework for QGIS desktop - Web Application interoperability. | Use cases | Development | QGIS Desktop | QGIS uses the QtWebKit widget to allow plugins to integrate with remote web applications, however this approach has some drawbacks: in particular the QtWebKit widget cannot be updated by the user and can be rapidly become rather outdated compared with the latest versions of popular browsers. This makes it difficult to use the most recent versions of some JavaScript frameworks. In order to address this problem, we have developed a framework to open a bidirectional communication channel between an external web browser and QGIS, thus allowing us to enhance a standard web-application with QGIS-related functionalities. The web application is able to detect the availability of a QGIS instance using client-side JavaScript code and also server-side via a custom HTTP header. In this way, a web-application can provide additional features for QGIS-enhanced browsers that would not be visible otherwise. To be able to provide the same level of integration compared to the QtWebKit approach we decided, as a first step, to develop a Chrome extension to manage browser windows and tabs. The Chrome extension allows QGIS Plugin Python code to identify and reuse existing instances of web-pages associated with a QGIS scope. It also allows JavaScript code running in web pages to communicate with QGIS. The Chrome extension provides also a way to route messages for different QGIS scopes via a single channel to QGIS, centralizing QGIS detection and connection retries when necessary. For example, GEM has used this solution to integrate a web application IPT, that assists the user in the preparation of input files for the OpenQuake engine with the GEM IRMT plugin. Using Hybridge the IPT can send the input files directly to the engine rather than having the use save the file to a local disk and then upload it to the engine manually. The framework leverages a Python websocket server inside GEM’s IRMT QGIS plugin that uses signals to interface with the rest of QGIS to provide a fully asynchronous and bidirectional API with support for multiple responses to a single command, allowing long-running operations to provide intermediate results and/or progress update notifications. Each QGIS scope can extend the API independently. We intend to continue development of this framework, in particular we plan to remove the dependency on a browser-specific extension while still providing the same functionality. The software components are available under the terms of an open-source licence.

29 | Paolo Tormene | The Integrated Risk Modelling Toolkit: a QGIS plugin driving the OpenQuake Engine | Use cases | Open Data / Crowdsourcing / Collaborative Projects | Development | QGIS Desktop | The Integrated Risk Modelling Toolkit (IRMT) plugin provides user-interface to control the OpenQuake Engine (OQ-Engine), a free, open-source calculation engine for earthquake hazard and risk analysis. It runs on operating systems such as Linux, macOS and Windows, and it can be deployed on laptops, desktops, standalone servers and multi-node clusters. Through the IRMT it is possible to visualize a list of completed or running jobs, to submit new jobs, to monitor their progress, to retrieve and visualize parameters and results... all seamlessly within the QGIS interface. The OpenQuake Engine Server can run locally on the same computer where QGIS is running, or remotely (e.g., on a cluster), and it offers a HTTP RESTful API that returns numerical outputs as Numpy compressed objects (NPZ). A 'Data Viewer' dock window added to QGIS by the plugin triggers the interactive visualization of different types of outputs produced by the OQ-Engine, such as hazard curves or aggregate loss tables. When a compatible output is loaded, a QGIS layer is built and loaded into the QGIS map canvas and displayed with a relevant styling that is automatically applied. Meanwhile, the Data Viewer is ready to visualize curves and tables related to features that will be selected in the map. The Data Viewer also offers export functionality, for saving selected data and plots. Full compatibility between the IRMT and the OQ-Engine is maintained through continuous integration on Travis, running integration tests on demo datasets and ensuring that all manageable OQ-Engine outputs continue to be successfully loaded by the plugin. Both the IRMT and the OpenQuake engine are available from github: IRMT: https://github.com/gem/oq-irmt-qgis OpenQuake engine: https://github.com/gem/oq-engine | Pavia (Italy) | GEM (Global Earthquake Model) | paolo.tormene@globalquakemodel.org | 2018-12-21 | Thank you for your proposal.

31 | Fabiano Saraiva | prjQGIS – A novel geospatial data editing model for the Brazil’s 2020 Census | Use cases | Open Data / Crowdsourcing / Collaborative Projects | Development | QGIS Desktop | The Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) is responsible for the geographic information and official statistics in Brazil. Its structure includes the Directorate of Geosciences (DGC) and, in this, the Coordination of Territorial Structures (CETE). In the Brazilian states are the Territorial Base Supervisions (SBTs) and the branches of Regional Agencies. In numbers, there are 27 SBTs and around 500 agencies. The issue is the need for continuous updating of territorial information (Territorial Base – BT) for censuses and sample surveys. This demand requires synergy between CETE, SBTs and Agencies with their effective participation in spatial data editing. The previously model presented limitations in the on-line editing process due to deficiencies in data communication infrastructure, traffic volume, complexity in operation and high software licensing costs. Considering this, the novel solution proposed was based on: - Use of FREE PLATFORM. IBGE would not have to spend financial resources for software licensing. - COLABORATIVE DEVELOPMENT model in which everyone could participate and contribute to its improvement through suggestions, criticisms, notes, development, tests and documentation. - DATA INTEGRATION from different databases (Geographic Operational Base - BOG, Mapping System - SISMAP and National Register of Addresses for Statistical Purposes - CNEFE) in a single visualization platform enabling the construction of indicators of territorial occupation with a view to the planning of BT. - TOOLS CUSTOMIZATION. Customizing a tool can facilitate learning, improve understanding and application of concepts, significantly increasing work performance. The platform adopted for the implementation was the QGIS for its complete compatibility with the mentioned requirements. The initiative is called prjQGIS. The customizations made in prjQGIS count today with 12 operational plugins and others in development. These additions enable interoperability between systems, seek to ensure consistency of information entered and give greater agility to work. The initiative was used for the production and maintenance of BT that met the 2017 Agricultural Census. The results that the prjQGIS presented could be observed in the production of the inputs (both printed maps and geospatial files loaded into Mobile Collection Devices - DMCs). The prjQGIS will be used as BT's main operational tool for the 2020 Census. | Curitiba, PR - Brazil | IBGE | fabiano.saraiva@ibge.gov.br | 2018-12-21 | Thank you for your proposal.

Rodríguez Pascual (UNE/CTN148 and CNIG Spain), Celia Sevilla Sánchez (UNE/CTN148 CNIG Spain), Juan Manue Rodríguez Borreguero (CNIG)8 | The New Spanish Standard for Open Geographic Data | Open Data / Crowdsourcing / Collaborative Projects | The Spanish Standardization Technical Committee 148 “Digital Geographic Information” decided in 2016 to define a Spanish standard on Open Geographic Data to have an objective procedure to verify and certify if a geospatial dataset is published or not as Open Data, as a tool to promote and support Open Data. UNE 148004:2018 “Datos geográficos abiertos” (Open Geographic Data) was approved in 2018 after following the standard UNE processes, including two round of comments and one public information period. More than the eighty five per cent of the comments received were totally or partially accepted and we think the result reflects the consensus reached in the Spanish geographic data community. This Spanish standard stablish a standard technical full and detailed definition of what is Open Geographic Data (OGD) and defines a set of objective requirements to be fulfilled in order to publish a geographic dataset as Open Data. It is based in three main principles: - Principle of minimizing barriers, following the idea that Open Data are data published without economic, technical and legal barriers for their use and reuse.- Principle of no-discrimination of any kind of users, field of application, social group and future use of data.- Principle of technological neutrality, which is in fact a particularization of the former one stating that any user shall be discriminated on the basis of the technological solutions (browser, operating system, software…) he has chosen.Applying those general principles, UNE 148004:2018 defines four conceptual levels for geographic data in the way of progress towards having OGD: available, well described, under an open license and in an open format geographic data. It provides also an Abstract Test Suit for verifying and certifying, if required, Open Geographic Data. In this communication a general approach to open geographic data, a justification for developing this standard and a brief and complete summary its contents and prescription are given. We think this new Spanish standard will promote and support Open Data in the field of Geographic Information and we hope it will promote the progress and grow of the Spanish geospatial sector. | Madrid | National Centre of Geographic Information | afrodriguez@fomento.es | 2018-12-23 | Thank you for your proposal.

39 | Antonio Luis Marques Sierra; Nieves Roqueñi; Jorge Loredo | Use of QSWAT to estimate flows in ungauged rivers: a case study in northwestern Spain | Use cases | The small tributaries that drain the Central Carboniferous Basin of Asturias (Spain) are ungauged, given the scarce entity of their channels. The problem occurs when in the valleys that drain these small rivers are located orphan mines that leach their pollutants into the river. When it comes to estimating the pollutant load transported by these rivers there is the inconvenience of not having flow data. QGIS has a plugin, QSWAT, that allows the hydrological modeling of watersheds, and using this tool it’s possible to estimate in a robust way the flows of the non-gauged rivers. The strategy is the calibration of the model based on a gauging station in the main channel of the basin, and from this calibration extract the flows of the sub-basins of interest. The application of this methodology has allowed estimating the flows of several ungauged basins with the presence of orphan mines, in which there is a control of heavy metals in surface waters. From the flows obtained in QSWAT it has been possible to estimate the pollutant load contributed by each basin to the main channel of the caudal river. The use of QGIS, due to it's free and Open Source, makes it possible to share the results openly with any stakeholder, in contrast to the options that require a payment license. | Oviedo | Universidad de Oviedo | marquesantonio@uniovi.es | 2019-01-11 | Thank you for your proposal.

42 | Noe Anes Garcia; Antonio Luis Marques Sierra | A holistic approach to delimitate mine polluted microcatchments: generation of geoenvironmental cartography of Nalon catchment with QGIS | Use cases | Nalon catchment in Asturias is the biggest river basin in northwester Spain. In these river basin mining and metallurgical industries were most important activities during last 200 years. Coal mining was the most important resource, and most of coal mines were under closure phase. Two gold mines and more than 30 quarries for industrial minerals and aggregates were in Nalon basin. However, most important mining impact in catchment streams were from orphan metal mines. Mercury mines were most important metal mines in region, and most important source of metal(oid)s. Several local studies have been carried on mercury mines, but a basin approach does not yet exist. This is an important reason that creation of a geoenvironmental cartography becomes necessary to integrate all the scattered existing studies. A holistic approach involving various disciplines has been sought to create an geoenvironmental cartography that shows the microcatchment affected by mine influenced water (MIW). The integration of hydrochemical data, remote sensing, land use, hydrology, etc., has been done through a GIS, which allows not only the realization of cartography, but also the realization of specific queries. The objective has been to achieve geoenvironmental mapping with QGIS that will serve as a basis for further studies and show the affected microcatchment. In this work the results obtained based on the methodology used were shown and discussed; possibilities offered by the geoenvironmental cartography generated with QGIS in the management and decision making processes were discussed too. | Gijón | Elmac Ingeniería; Universidad de Oviedo | ingenieria@elmac-ingenieria.es | 2019-01-13 | Thank you for your proposal.

43 | Jose Marcos Ulecia Roman; Antonio Luis Marques Sierra | Methodology for the generation of solar radiation maps for the feasibility study of solar projects using QGIS. | Use cases | In this work, a methodology for the generation of solar radiation maps is presented. It's a simple methodology that allows the use of open source GIS software for the development of solar farm feasibility projects. This methodology is an adaptation and synthesis of various previous works, allowing a simpler workflow to be oriented to areas of work with scarce data. These solar maps are the result of the treatment, study and correlations obtained from meteorological stations data distributed throughout a study area. For the development of this work we have chosen to use QGIS because the current power of this open source GIS is perfectly adapted to the requirements of this work. Using the results of the program for starting data, the incident radiation in a study zone is estimated. The main result of this study is to produce various types of maps (horizontal irradiation and inclined surfaces, temperature, etc). These results allow to have a simple tool for the initial evaluation of solar projects. | Oviedo | Freelance consultor; Universidad de Oviedo | almarques@gmail.com | 2019-01-13 | Thank you for your proposal.

44 | Marqués Sierra, A.L. & Cienfuegos Suárez, P. | Cartography of risks associated with ancient mining work: a case study in the Asturian central coal basin | Use cases | The subsidence of the land is a natural risk that affects large areas of the territory causing significant economic damage and a great social alarm. The subsidence of the land can be due to numerous causes such as the dissolution of deep materials, the construction of underground works or mining galleries, the erosion of the ground in depth, the lateral flow of the soil, the compaction of the materials that make up the land or the tectonic activity. All these causes are manifested on the surface of the land by vertical deformations that can vary from a few millimeters to several meters for periods ranging from minutes to years. In Asturias, the subsidence linked to ancient mining is one of the biggest urban problems in certain populations of the central coal basin. The exploitations of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th collapsed due to deformations of the terrain creating large deformations that sometimes affect homes. An initial phase of the mining subsidence studies is to delimit the possible areas of affection starting from the existing old mining cartography. For this it is necessary to georeference the existing plans and digitize the exploitation galleries by depths. Once the Shape layers containing the mining work have been carried out, an algorithm is applied that defines the affected areas according to the depth of the work, taking into account the geology of the area. QGIS is a free and open source tool that has great potential to develop this type of work, also offering the possibility of sharing projects with affected stakeholders, thus increasing the transparency of the process. In the present work a case study is shown in the Asturian central coal basin where the possible zones of affection of old mining works on a small municipality have been delimited. This initial cartography will serve to delimit the necessary actions to control the subsidence produced by the old mining works. | Oviedo | Oviedo School of Mines | almarques@gmail.com | 2019-01-13 | Thank you for your proposal.

46 | Muhammad Hasan Mustafa, Tanmoy Chakraborty, and Jordan Bates | Analysis of Rohingya Refugee Settlement Trends Using Remote Sensing | Use cases | Rohingya refugees amounting to more than half a million have fled to neighboring Bangladesh since August 2017, joining thousands of others living in overcrowded settlement camps in Teknaf. Using remotely sensed Sentinel-2A and -2B imagery and a random forest (RF) machine learning algorithm with ground observation data, we quantified the territorial expansion of refugee settlements surrounding the largest concentration of refugee camps—Kutupalong–Balukhali, that developed between pre-August and post-August of 2017. Thus, in this study the chosen images are dated at the start of 2017, end of 2017 and end of 2018. The differences in the settlement size between these dates are used to depict the expansion rate and to consider the directional growth of these camps. The project aims to shed light on combinations of past decisions, conditional factors, and to add value to preparational planning. | Lisbon | NOVA Information Management School | m20180811@isegi.unl.pt | 2019/1/14 | via private mail | 2019/1/19 | Muhammad Hasan Mustafa (Pakistan), Tanmoy Chakraborty (Bangladesh), and Jordan Bates (USA) | ||||||||||||||||
