| [udig-users] Is udig the right thing for me? |
|
Hi all, I’m new to open source GIS and the seemingly unlimited
number of open source alternatives online. Here goes my question: In the near future we will start building a post processor that should be able to read
netcdf files, as well as xls, txt and csv. The objective is to: 1) Display
the results and the modelling boundary conditions. For example: load the
bathymetry and plot the flow velocity vectors, make a contour plot of the
bathymetry, etc… Editing/removing is not part of the objective. 2) Next
to that, charts should be plotted as well( For this I would use JFreeChart). 3) Generate
layouts for printing. From what I found on the internet I’m not
sure if the netcdf import is now included in
the last release? Is this the case? If so, are there any
limitations? Size and Dimension wise? I’m pretty sure Udig can do the simple (and
complex) things that are required for the post processing. However If there
would be a better alternative, please let me know as well. For example I’m
not sure if I really need all the functionality from Udig and could just go
with GeoTools instead? All ideas, help and comments are very much
appreciated! Thank you very much for your answer(s) and time, Yours sincerely, Koen Wildemeersch | Adviseur Water Antea Group +32 (0)9 261 63 50 | +32 (0)477 70 80 36 Koen.Wildemeersch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
