CeethreedeeQtools – Data Connector – Save Streaming Spatial data and refresh it later…

This little tool will save you a bundle of time when working with streaming data sources. Like Aerial Imagery or goverment databases. It allows you to save the vectors and rasters locally, but save the connection information so they can be updated later. This means better performance, but also snapshots them in time for documentation reasons. Enjoy!

You can get them from the CeethreedeeQtools plugin on the QGIS plugins store https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/CeeT…

Watch the video to see how its done

Making an Android App – Wack-a-wombat

Well, I spent a painful 8 weeks learning the ins and outs of Unity and making a kids gaming app called “Wack-a-wombat”. With the help of my kids of course we managed to “whack” out a whack-a-mole sort of game with about 11 levels.

Hopefully with all the experience I have had I would like to apply some of my learning here to a 3D games that will benefit the CAD world.

Anyway the first 3 levels are free and then its like 2 dollars to play the rest. If you like my free apps and you would like to support me to keep developing them, then this is a great way to show your support.

Give it a go here, if you have Android of course. Will make a version for Apple soon. Once they approve my developer account!

LOCAL GRID TO KNOWN GRID CUSTOM COORDINATE SYSTEMS IN CIVIL 3D and QGIS

2 Comments

In civil engineering jobs, local coordinate systems like mine grids and council grids can be a real headache. Transforming data between them is an ongoing headache throughout the life of that project.

This little cheat will help you create a custom Coordinate System that will allow you to transform data easily in both QGIS, Civil 3D and Infraworks.

Any questions hit me in the You tube comments or this blog post below.
