Triangular mesh generation #35

Closed michelk closed 6 years ago

michelk commented 11 years ago

Are there other people, interested in triangular mesh generation within QGIS?

I have been thinking about this for while. But I'm not sure if it is feasible. I also don't know if QGIS is capable to provide similar functionality as for example SMS.

Michel, It is our plan to implement support triangular mesh in Crayfish (see previous tickets). SMS is for a slightly different niche, but we are trying to adopt QGIS to meet our specific needs in SMS.

We need triangular mesh generation within QGIS as well. You may want to check out our QGIS-plugin BASEmesh for the generation of meshes, which essentially bases on the free software TRIANGLE. In combination with Crayfish it may serve as full replacement for SMS.

Chris, We have some plans to do so. Unfortunately, it is beyond our R&D budget and requires external funding.

Triangular mesh is generated automatically in QGIS rendering now.

From Crayfish 3.x release and QGIS 3.4 release, the rendering and styling is implemented in QGIS Core. The data reading and support is implemented in MDAL. Please reopen the ticket in QGIS bug tracker for rendering issues or MDAL for format support issues. Thanks.
