Let’s not paraphrase it, QField 2.0 is here and it is taking professional GIS fieldwork to a completely new level.
In the past year, the build system behind QField has been ported to vcpkg, a modern C++ dependency management system. It has been a great success for QField and considerably helped to streamline efforts, improve the development experience and to guarantee an outstanding stability of the application. In this blog post we will look at the history of building QGIS based applications for mobile systems and how it has become what it is today. When Read more…

What a blast it was!
The first QField user day in Bern with around 40 participants from Switzerland and neighbouring countries was packed with use case presentations and interesting discussions.
Amongst all the processing algorithms already available in QGIS, sometimes the one thing you need is missing. This happened not a long time ago, when we were asked to find a way to continuously visualise traffic on the Swiss motorway network (polylines) using frequently measured traffic volumes from discrete measurement stations (points) alongside the motorways. In order to keep working with the existing polylines, and be able to attribute more than one value of traffic Read more…
Starting with QField 2.2, users can fully rely on animation capabilities that have made their way into QGIS during its last development cycle. This can be a powerful mean to highlight key elements on a map that require special user attention. The example below demonstrates a scenario where animated raster markers are used to highlight active fires within the visible map extent. Notice how the subtle fire animation helps draw viewers’ eyes to those important Read more…
Tired of start/stop editing for every single layer in your project with mixed data sources?Starting from version 3.26, QGIS has a new transaction mode called “Buffered Transaction Groups”. Within this mode, all layers which are not read-only are put in one “transaction group” and handled together when the actions “Toggle Editing” or “Save Layer Edits” are activated. It doesn’t matter if the layers come from different providers like GeoPackage, PostgreSQL or Shapefile. Edits are buffered Read more…

Outgoing, flexible and open, Marco fluently speaks five languages. The best thing: He not only knows how to say it but also knows what he is talking about!
There are no QGIS problems for Matthias - only more or less difficult tasks. He solves them sustainably and farsightedly with visionary ideas. And not just since yesterday …
Continually developing and learning new technologies is part of his daily routine. Complex QGIS problems are everyday life for him - and solve them too!
What does creativity have in common with software development? David Signer. He thinks cleverly and works in a structured manner, writes meticulous formulas or eloquent texts and, as an exception, confirms the rule.
He speaks programming languages, thinks spatially and manages Linux servers like pieces of cake. If he didn't have such a high level of social skills, you could think of him as a robot.
He led GIS projects in Europe and Africa and worked as a geospatial consultant in Fiji. Now the man of the world and experienced GIS expert also work for opengis.ch. On a long journey together!
The experienced geomatics engineer comes from western Switzerland and is world class. She knows the geo industry and masters GIS problems from arcs to z-values!
Finishing his master's in Spatial Engineering at University of Twente in the Netherlands, Ivan decided to join OPENGIS.ch Ninjas to get some serious open-source GIS exposure.
Atmospheric scientist by formation, full-stacker by passion. When not designing beautiful WebGIS JS frontends, Fabian loves unchanining his hands into Django...
