GIS applied to Municipality Management: Module 8.2 ‘Creation of point layers from tables (Event layers)’

The second video of the eighth module is now available, in which we continue showing how to create point layers from a table. In this case we will create an event layer, that means, a point shapefile from a table with coordinates.

For example, the table can be composed of geographic coordinates that we could get from a topography survey with GPS.

This functionality is another way to generate our cartography in a town hall, in this case when we only have the coordinates of the points.

The cartography to follow this video can be downloaded from this link.

GIS applied to Municipality Management: Module 8.1 ‘Creation of point layers from tables (Geocoding: Points from a table with addresses)’

The first video of the eighth module is now available, in which we will show how to create point layers from a table. In this first case we will speak about geocoding, creating a point shapefile from a table with addresses.

Apart from addresses, that table could also contain characteristic elements such as museums, monuments, sports facilities…, that is, any place that we could find in search engines such as Google Maps, OpenStreetMap…, since it uses these search engines to create that layer.

This functionality is very useful in a municipality because if we have for example several tables with these type of elements or their addresses, we wouldn’t have to digitalize one by one. Thanks to this geoprocess we can do it automatically, and we would only have to tackle a quality control phase at the end to check that the results are correct (since as we know, these search engines also have certain errors). Besides, we can indicate that the geoprocess shows us which elements or addresses haven’t been found, in order to digitalize them in another way.

We will also show how to access to Google Street View from gvSIG, very interesting for office work, for certain queries that would avoid us to have to go to that place in person.

The cartography to follow this video can be downloaded from this link.

3rd gvSIG Festival: A new edition of the virtual conference about gvSIG

The third edition of the gvSIG Festival, the virtual conference about the gvSIG project, will be held in March 21st and 22nd 2018.

Just like in the last edition, a period for sending proposals of projects about the application has been open, so that users that can’t present their projects in any of the existing face-to-face conferences can do it from their city.

This event is free of charge and completely online, through the webinar service of the gvSIG Association, with the advantage to count with speakers from different countries and presentations in different languages, where users and developers from any part of the world can hold them.

GIS applied to Municipality Management: Module 7.2 ‘Editing (Derivative geometries)’

The second video of the seventh module is now available, in which we will show a new tool related to the editing part in gvSIG.

The functionality that we are going to see in this video will allow us to create shapefiles from other ones. We will be able to create a polygon layer from point or line layers, and also a line layer from points. It will be very useful when we have the points of the axis of a street in our municipality, where we have a field with the order of the points (if we don’t have that field we should check in the View which are the points when we select them to check the order), so we wouldn’t have to digitalize point by point. The same thing would happen when we have the points that form a parcel. If we have a parcel formed by 500 points, by using this tool we wouldn’t have to digitalize those points one by one to create the polygon. At this way it would be created automatically.
