From Hackathon to QGIS Plugin
Time: 26 February 2021 12h30 UTC.
Duration: 1 hour
Venue: Youtube Live Stream Link
Presenter: Natalia Cárdenas Niño
Host: Kartoza interns
Natalia Cárdenas Niño participated in the WaPOR Hackathon "From Database to Application" in November 2020. She worked with her amazing team on an idea to develop the WAPlugin. The WAPlugin will give easy access to open data from the FAO WaPOR database from QGIS and can be used to calculate water accounting and water productivity indicators. The team was one of the winning teams and is currently continuing the development of the plugin. Natalia will give an inspiring presentation about her journey from hackathon to QGIS plugin. After the presentation, there will be a panel discussion with the team.
A geological map workflow in QGIS
Time: 26 February 2021 13h30 UTC.
Duration: 1 hour
Venue: Youtube Live Stream Link
Presenter: Chris Lambert
Host: Kartoza interns
Chris Lambert has been developing a workflow for drawing geological maps. The workflow involves drawing a structural framework from satellite data which is then turned into polygons and manipulated further to add attributes. The method is used to easily replace drawing polygons with an easily editable line network and return a polygon layer with no slithers or overlaps.
