Hello Pierre,

thanks for your application.

Could you please also provide an installer for your software in a branch and make a pull request so we can test it. * see also https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeolive/wiki/Projects/How_to_add%20your%20project

Looks like we do not have point clouds on OSGeoLive yet. Do you have a suggestion for good example data?

After we had a look at the installer and decide whether PerfectTIN fits you could write the documentation files.

For the documentation youu find information at https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeolive/wiki/How%20to%20configure%20a%20project%20documentation

Hi Pierre,

Thank you for reaching out.
There is a process to submit a new project to OSGeoLive, please see this
link:
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeolive/wiki/Projects/How_to_apply

Name: PerfectTIN
Home page: none yet.
License: LGPL v3
Do: It converts a point cloud of terrain into a TIN, which can then be turned
into a contour map.
Language: C++
Version: 0.4.1, which should be out in a few days.

Deployed: none yet. A friend of mine at eGPS is preparing a comparison of PerfectTIN and a previously existing program, in hopes that eGPS will deploy
it.
OpenHUB: this is new to me.
User community: 1 that I know of.
Developer community: 1
Stable release: 0.4.0 may have a bug when run on Windows.

User interface: PerfectTIN has both a GUI and a CLI.

Install: Presumably from .deb packages, but I don't know how to make them.

RAM: An empty PerfectTIN process takes 34.6 MiB of unshared RAM and 82.2 MiB of shared (which is largely Qt libraries for the GUI). The initial processing steps ("Making octagon" and "6 triangles") take 168 bytes per dot of the point cloud, so a cloud of 3.2 million dots would just overflow 512 MiB of RAM on top
of the empty process.

Disk space: 4.8 MiB for the application, not including Qt or Boost.

Dataset: The datasets you have appear to be all shapefiles. PerfectTIN needs a
point cloud. Do you have any point clouds?

Project overview: not sure what this should look like.

Windows and Mac: I prepare a Windows installer with each release. I don't have
a Mac.

Pierre
