A new Ilwis
It has been a long time ago since I wrote a blog entry. But I feel it is time to restart the ILWIS blog. Why? you may ask. Well mostly because there are interesting things happening. ILWIS 3.8.5 is around the corner. This is mostely a bug-fix release, but in a big way. ILWIS 3.8, let’s be honest about that, had too many bugs. Though 3.8 offered some very nice extras and more performance for visualization, it also introduces some nasty bugs. It’s the price you pay for working without a safety net of somebody who does Q&A (programmers are notoriusly bad at that).
Fortunately our management understood that and freed some extra resources (read in this case time) to fix that. The result is ILWIS 3.8.5. We fixed most of the nasty, unpredictable bugs. Re-enabled some (but not all) of the functionality that was missing from 3.8.4. Most likely there will be an ILWIS 3.8.6, which finish the 3.8 line for Ilwis. After that we will switch completely to something we call Ilwis-objects.
WPS-Ilwis Bridge – Midterm Post
The goal of this Google Summer of Code project is to extend the 52°North WPS‘s functionality by adding Ilwis-Objects as a processing backend. The 52°North currently supports several different backends, such as R or GRASS. The introductory blog post can be found here.
The current status of the project can be seen in the following diagram.
Social Driving Stats – Midterm Blog
Introduction
The goal of the project “Social Driving Stats” is to develop a mechanism for sharing tracks and user details on social media services such as Facebook, Twitter and Google plus. By avoiding messages that only contain plain text, we aim to share the statistics and details in a catchy manner, which drives social media users to use the enviroCar service. Thereby, one challenge is how to deal with the various restrictions using the social media APIs provided.more >
