Feature Request: Add tabs for Mesh and Point data types
With MDAL and PDAL now being mainlined and bundled with QGIS, I think it'd be great if LTA could expose them as tabs for loading operations, much like Vector and Raster are now.
Thanks for the incredible tool, German!
Great proposal @Saijin-Naib and thanks for your words. Would you like to help us with a mockup?
Mockup how? In QT Designer (That'll be a challenge), or more a conceptual mockup using faked screenshots/composites?
In fact, the tool you feel comfortable with. It could be QT designer, but it could also be https://balsamiq.cloud/ or any graphic tool as well.
@Saijin-Naib, could you point me to sample data so that I can do some tests?
I'm not super-familiar with these formats, so if you know about different extensions that should be supported for Mesh and Point data, just let me know.
Supported formats as of QGIS 3.18:
Mesh:
2DM Mesh File - *.2dm
3Di Results - results_3di.nc
AnuGA - *.sww
ESRI TIN - *.adf
Flo2D - *.nc
GDAL GRIB - *.grb, *.grb2, *.bin, *.grib, *.grib1, *.grib2
GDAL NetCDF - *.nc
HEC-RAS 2D - *.hdf
Selafin File - *.slf
Stanford PLY ASCII Mesh - *.ply
TUFLOW FV - *.nc
UGRID Results - *.nc
XMS TIN Mesh File - *.tin
Point Cloud:
Entwine Point Tile - ept.json
PDAL Point Clouds - *.las, *.laz
@Saijin-Naib, would you be interested in helping us doing some tests in the coming days/weeks? Support for Point Clouds is being proposed in PR #38.
Great! Thank you @Saijin-Naib Please find attached a dev version of the plugin, containing the Point Cloud support. Let us know if you find something unexpected or if you have any suggestion.
I am so sorry!
So far, it is not finding the files.
However, this might be a Linux/flatpak/permissions thing.
Thank you @Saijin-Naib, could you please try with this new dev version? Any chance to test it on Windows?
I'm on version 3.34.3 and can't get the point could tab to load. I'm not sure what to change to make it work. Any thoughts?
@likwid101, point cloud support for Load Them All has not yet been released to the public. It's still a beta release. Would you like to participate in some tests or you prefer to wait for the public release?
FYI, I just created a beta version with proper support for ept.json files.
