| [19:53:46] | <mstenta[m]> | <paul121[m] "I'm curious how we can get custo"> This is possible with the MapKnitter module included with farmOS |
| [19:54:13] | <mstenta[m]> | Using a layer you create and host on MapKnitter.org |
| [19:54:57] | <mstenta[m]> | Or if you have layers hosted with something like MapServer or GeoServer you can simply add them to the Openlayers map as new layers |
| [19:55:18] | <paul121[m]> | Oh wow! Hadn't heard about MapKnitter |
| [19:55:21] | <mstenta[m]> | This is possible currently, and will be even simpler in the new farmOS-map library |
| [19:55:55] | <paul121[m]> | > Or if you have layers hosted with something like MapServer or GeoServer you can simply add them to the Openlayers map as new layers |
| [19:55:55] | <paul121[m]> | I thought this might be the case. So cool |
| [19:55:59] | <mstenta[m]> | <generalredneck[m "Yeah... I was thinking the same."> Oh yes! I've thought about this too! Using a simple image layer |
| [19:56:37] | <mstenta[m]> | The tricky part there is that the drawing would need to be accurate to GPS coordinates/scale |
| [19:57:42] | <paul121[m]> | Are there tools that would help you scale a drawing on paper to match GPS coordinates/scale? |
| [20:00:04] | <mstenta[m]> | Hmm good question |
| [20:00:09] | <mstenta[m]> | I don't know |
| [20:00:28] | <mstenta[m]> | Wow catching up on the conversation above regarding zone minder |
| [20:00:32] | <mstenta[m]> | Super cool! |
| [20:04:41] | <generalredneck[m> | @mstenta:matrix.org: Only if you plan to have GPS interact with the layer. Otherwise it would be a good visualization selection tool to visualize the areas (which is the way ubiquiti uses it) |
| [20:05:30] | <generalredneck[m> | Obviously, not pushing for that... was more of a brainstorming session than anything. |
| [20:15:00] | <generalredneck[m> | Since we are talking about integration of open source software I support... we just lack OpenKJ :p but not sure how farming an karaoke go together yet. |
| [20:25:25] | <mstenta[m]> | You could make it an Input log :-) |
| [20:25:57] | <mstenta[m]> | Adding good karaoke vibes to the crops |

| [21:16:59] | <symbioquine_> | > Are there tools that would help you scale a drawing on paper to match GPS coordinates/scale? |
| [21:17:18] | <symbioquine_> | yes. GIS tools like QGIS can be used to "georeference" raster images. |
| [21:17:39] | <symbioquine_> | https://www.qgistutorials.com/en/docs/georeferencing_basics.html |
| [21:18:05] | <symbioquine_> | paul121[m] ^ |
| [21:20:00] | <symbioquine_> | You could then presumably serve those raster layers via MapServer/GeoServer/QGIS-itself/etc |
| [21:24:03] | <mstenta[m]> | Awesome! And then those hosted layers could be added to the Openlayers map |
| [21:35:52] | <generalredneck[m> | Wonder how much work all 👆 is :p |
| [21:37:51] | <generalredneck[m> | I suspect as a small homestead Ima probably pass personally... but drone imagery from colleges or what not... totally get that effort |
| [21:41:21] | <generalredneck[m> | Wonder how you geo-reference something accurately. I know geo-referenceing a set of plans takes a surveyor and a reference pin in the ground. |
| [21:49:32] | <symbioquine_> | You find corners of landmarks which are easily identifiable in your imagery and are known distances/bearings from known physical locations. |
| [21:50:33] | <symbioquine_> | ... or you use common features in your imagery and some imagery which is already georeferenced |
| [21:53:19] | <symbioquine_> | If you're creating your own imagery - say with a drone - one of the idea cases is to flag existing survey markers such that they are visible from the drone imagery itself. |

| [22:51:04] | <paul121[m]> | Wow, great info. Didn't know how that worked! Thanks for sharing |

| [23:11:29] | <jgaehring[m]> | I want to let everyone know we'll be having a discussion in the next monthly call (Jan 8, 2pm EST) regarding improvements to the UI/UX of Field Kit. If you're beta testing and have any feedback we'd love to hear from you! More details here: https://farmos.discourse.group/t/discussing-field-kit-ui-in-next-monthly... |

| [13:26:37] | <svenn7> | mstenta[m] "almost" because some fields report an error when clicked in "area". Is there a logging feature in farmos when something fails in farmos and not in php |
| [13:29:42] | <svenn7> | could it be that the fields are defined with polygon() and not with linestring()? |
| [13:36:41] | <svenn7> | In which database table are the farm areas stored? |
| [13:37:04] | <svenn7> | I find that some of the areas are stored in sites/default/farm |
| [13:37:49] | <svenn7> | sites/default/files/farm/area I think |
| [13:41:00] | <svenn7> | this is what I find in a log : Error: Call to a member function getY() on null in Polygon->area() (line 32 of /home/www/doc/7901/bjerkem.de/www/farmos/profiles/farm/modules/contrib/geophp/geoPHP/lib/geometry/Polygon.class.php). |

| [17:04:14] | <mstenta[m]> | Ah ha! You're in luck @svenn7! I just fixed that issue today :-) |
| [17:05:31] | <mstenta[m]> | The fix will be included in the next release, and in the meantime there are instructions for fixing it manually here: |

| [17:24:20] | <svenn7> | I can report back that the manual edit of line 31 and 83 did give me my local areas back :) |
