Longitudinal profile
Add a feature for longitudinal profile of pipes. See if the parts of the QGEP implementation could be reused for qwat
Edit 092017: This tool would need an export format to AutoCAD compatible format
Description of the tool : The user should be able to generate a longitudinal profile of a selection of 3D line. The points (network object) along the profile line must also be projected on the profile. In this way, the user can control the elevation of each vertex of the line according to the points (netwotk points like valves, ...) in the line. If the elevation of the points are different from the overlapped line vertex, they are highlighted. The user can correct the incoherence by using the altitude of the line as a reference or vice versa using the altitude of the object points on the line as reference. If below a object point (ex: valve), there is no vertex. A vertex should be created in the line and its altitude interpolated.
in relation with these issues : #113 and #114
It would be nice if the profile tool would be done with JavaScript etc. so that it can also work in a web client.
Development in progress , you can look the code here VDLTools Please test the tool and report the bug. At the moment, we create only one tool bar for several tool. For a generic use, we could split this tool bar in several block of plugin.
What is the finished status for this tool ?
@dsavary @ponceta Amandine asked to add the Autocad export feature of longitudinal profiles . I will need more specifications and maybe file examples and format compatible with the expected workflow. Also what spatial reference system do you use for profiles? (paper coordinates? Real geographic spatial ?)
Or does autocad as the 3d profile feature ? If it does, we mainly need to test that current export keeps 3D attributes and is capable of exporting only some features
