How to change field length in QGIS I second this, use it quite a lot for quick and dirty data editing and formating (especially when I want to make use of Cals's formulas), or when I just want to join some data by location and once more the fieldname turns auf to be too long... Just remember: don't re-sort the rows without some FID-column to rearrange them correctly, or every feature will have some wrong attribute data afterwards. |

How do dissolve polygons from shapefile using open source tools? I never use it, but I think you can use the console to do everything in QGIS, so there is no need for the GUI. You will also always have to define those clusters in some sort of table, even if you completely rely on a scripted solution. So you could avoid messing with your shapefile by joining this table and doing dissolve then. I guess this would be scriptable, too? |

How to delete fields in QGIS? You can also always open the *.dbf file directly in, for example, OpenOffice Calc and change, add, or delete columns of data. Just make sure all rows are in the same order as in the beginning when you save (e.g. by using a FID field). |

Creating a small web-mapping/map-tiling service Does that mean I have to stick with my web-tiles solution until we get another server-solution, or are there any directories I can just copy to the server? I know, this is getting more and more off-topic, so I would really appreciate even the smallest hint in right direction. |

Creating a small web-mapping/map-tiling service I checked out your online web-mapping class and other resources, and it seems that my lack of knowledge is more on the server-tech side than on the actual cartography side. I think my problem is that I only have ftp-access and some basic web-configuration-interface. |

Creating a small web-mapping/map-tiling service So, I looked into Geoserver (as a part of the Open Geo Suite package), and it looks pretty good. I imported my shapefile, styled it, even got the preview running on localhost. But how do I get these maps online on my webspace? Am I missing something? Bookmarks etc. obviously won't work since they refer to my local harddrive. I worked my way through all possible tutorials and how tos, but that topic never seems to be discussed? Could someone point me in the right direction? |

Creating a small web-mapping/map-tiling service Simple webmap means it is still zoomable and scrollable, yes? That sounds like something I should look into when I get back to my office. |
