@philipbaileynar more research needed. I think we should avoid doing this in Q and instead ship an R script that does this
FYI I checked with Gary and he said that the graphic attached to this card was generated in Excel and then polished in Adobe Illustrator.
I think we should make a Riverscapes project for the network profiler prep and output.
@joewheaton so I think that's not quite what we want for 2 reasons:
It could be that we need to invent a kind of project that uses the network profiler tool as part of its process to derive an output that is part of Riverscapes but I see this as being a separate tool and not the profiler itself.
Thoughts?
The goal is the fastest, simplest XY plots. One for each attribute. Save them to PNG in same folder as the CSV output.
We know that we need some kind of network profilder graphical output. These are typically long profile plots. Distance along the X axis and attribute value along the y axis. These could get very complicated with all variables on one plot and using different symbologies for different variables.
A first version could just be a subfolder next to the CSV called
Figs
that contains a separate MatPlot lib XY line plot for each ShapeFile attribute that is in the CSV. This is crude, but would enable rapid review of the values:Other enhancement ideas:
