Hi all, Good news this time 🙂 Instead of enjoying my weekend doing some wicked diving here in Indonesia, I decided to close myself indoor and get a (re)working vesion of qgis out. As some of you might have noticed or read in my previous post, the latest and greatest version of Qt for android breaks a fundamental part of QGIS, the second level menues. So after some good nerdy-weekend hours here it is your Read more…
End October after a heavy development sprint, the InaSAFE team (which consists of developers from around the world, funded by AUSAID and The World Bank / GFDRR) released inaSAFE 1.0 at the AMCDRR, a high level conference for disaster risk reduction in Asia. During the same event, inaSAFE was even demonstrated to the President of Indonesia.
Hi all, it has been a while since my last post, and foremost QGIS on android release. I’m very sorry. I’ve been working hard on another project (inasafe.org) that toke up all my time since we just launched version 1.0. So now to the real problem, necessitas (the android Qt port) has had a sweet update that adds a lot of nice things (like native look and feel) to Qt apps. The only problem is Read more…

MTP is probably the most annoying thing I encounter lately on tablets, why don’t I get a simple USB mass storage when I connect my tablet? here some hints on how to get (maybe) rid of mtp in ICS (android 4.0) Just change the connection mode to Mass Storage or PTP instead of MTP, under Settings > Storage in the dropdown menu (or using the context menu button).
Yesterday I had the possibility to present QGIS on Android at the QGIS Swiss user meeting 2012 held at the Bern University. In the morning I held this presentation and in the afternoon I leaded a small workshop where we discussed more in depth how qgis of android works. I’d like to thank the QGIS user group Switzerland for organizing and the sponsors for supporting such a nice event.
So, after a very succesful rainy weekend the long-standing project of a new website is finally reality. Thanks to this project I had the chance to check out with no client constrains what was out there to allow me doing what I wanted. After an in-depth review I decided to use WordPress with the customized Shell-lite theme and some plugins. Now, to the why, well I really love the way WordPress has evolved from a Read more…
Since September 2011, as a result of my Google Summer of Code QGIS mobile project, QGIS is available for Android. As the maintainer and main developer behind QGIS for android I’m striving to improve it as much as possible. All my work is done in voluntary base, so if you can, consider supporting the development by using the donate button on the right. Another great way of helping developing QGIS for android is sponsoring the Read more…
Hi all, I’m remaking my site, so please apologize if you encounter any inconveniences. I should be done soon. Ciao Marco
One of the nice things of being freelance it that you can work on Sundays when the weather is horrible and get out on Tuesdays when it rocks 😉 . So Tuesday I decided to go test QGIS at high altitude and went to the Breithorn and the Pollux with my best friend for a nice winter end tour. At the summit of Breithorn I took out my Galaxy, started QGIS and opened my basic project, turned on GPS Read more…
