Hi Stefan and all,
I found your Chart plugin (which you add on the plugin page) very interesting.
I wonder if it can be the base for a plugin which draw topographic profiles
(intersection between a line, the section, with a SHP isolines layer)
Basically, accorrding to an old Arcview script, a such plugin requires those 4
things:
1) Intersection of the line cross section with a line layer of isolines
2) this intersection produces points with basically two attributes a) the
quote, deriving from the isolines b) the distance of the point from the origin
of the line
3) A graphic of the point layer where X:altitude and Y:distance from the origin
(this is available from yopur plugin
4) On the graph the point are connected by a line, which is the topographic
profile
Now basically OJ tools point 1, the machine behind your plugin does the point
3. What we miss is point 2 (calculate the distance from the origin of the lene
to the point and create an attribute) and point 4 (union of the point in the
progile with a line
What is the opinion of the developers?
Regards
Peppe
