@it

Information

'@it' is a free GIS plugin for Grasshopper to parse the geospatial data sets. The plugin @it aims to leverage Open Data, to allow user to make quick visualization to reveal the invisible dimensions, relationship, patterns and trends.

The main feature is GIS data visualization utilizing spatial data sets in .shp (shape) format. There are three components for the spatial data visualization feature:

shp@it category includes generic GIS tools; supports Point, Line, Polygon vector data format

Feat@it: is a look-up component. Input .shp file, Outputs the list of attributes (features) in the given data set and the type of vector data set
Import@it: imports to data into as Grasshopper objects that makes easier to query. Input .shp file, Outputs the shape items as system objects [this component organizes the contents of the data set into system.objects]
DataVis@it: Visualizes and filters the data set, input the objects from Imp@it components. Outputs the curves, points, and related filtered attributes.

IshpNYC: These are the NYC specific GIS tools (Open Data, .shp files)

Footprint by Borough: Sorts the footprint data set of NYC buildings by borough.
Data Binding: Binds two NYC data sets per common attribute; utilize NYC Tax property and Footprint vector data sets. Outputs shape object has combined attributes and geometry.
NYCVis: Visualize and filter the data set, input the objects from Data Binding components.

GeoCoder: Uses Google map api (no plugin needed but u need internet connection)

Address Parser: Parses the bad address, returns the formatted addresses and location (latitude , longitude)
Street View: Uses Coordinates (latitude , longitude) address parser and return the static street view on the active viewport.
[new] Address Lookup: Reverse Geocoding, returns formatted address from Coordinates (latitude , longitude)

[new] Statistics :

[new]Coordinates2Statistics: Uses Coordinates (latitude , longitude) and returns Statistics of specified place such as Population, Elevation, land cover etc.

[new] Open Street Map OSM: Components to parse OSM data, utilizes REST api

[new] osm_Trace : Traces OSM and returns features. Projection types UTM or WGS84
[new] osm_3D_Bldgs: Returns 3D geometry of OSM buildings, uses UTM projection and draws in Rhino model units.
[new] osm_Bldg_Info: Parse geojson data of OSM buildings, returns features/or tags.

Comment by Elcin Ertugrul on July 4, 2014 at 7:40am: Hi Alex,

Thank you for using @it,

The Greek language characters shouldn't be a problem, but I would definitely to look at the code where it might go wrong!

Would u mind to share the link of the .shp file with me so I can look at the data and improve my Greek :)

Thanks

Comment by ng5 Alex on July 4, 2014 at 6:50am: Hello

really nice work and thank you for the development of @it.

i am trying to use shape files from athens greece. these have attributes in greek (street names etc) and @it components do not output greek correctly. i am not sure thats case, but i tried to write greek in a panel in grasshopper and message is displayed correctly.

am i missing something? what can be done to have it ''read'' greek correct?

thank you in advance for your time.

cheers

alex

Comment by Dimitrios Papadopoulos on June 6, 2014 at 4:25pm: Thank you very much Elcin,

I ll try installing the latest .NET framework and see if it is fixed.

Best,

Dimitris

Comment by Elcin Ertugrul on June 5, 2014 at 9:45am: Dimitris, I have been still looking on this issue. Sorry I have no answer yet. Do u have a chance to try plug-in at another computer ? I was reached by another user has the same issue. But generally no problem.

Check first programs and features if you have followings: Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 & Microsoft .NET Framework Multi_targeting pack

I think it doesn't hurt we you try to get .Net Framework 4 and 4.5 installed. I am adding the links below for your convenience. Please let me know, Thank you

Comment by Dimitrios Papadopoulos on June 5, 2014 at 7:39am: Hello Elcin,

Do you believe that I need to install the v.4.0 and v.4.5 for @it to work?

Thanks a lot,

Dimitris

Comment by Dimitrios Papadopoulos on June 3, 2014 at 8:33am: Nope!

I have 4.0.1 and 4.0.2 in \.NetFramework and

v 3.0 v3.5 in \Framework.

Thanks

Comment by Elcin Ertugrul on June 3, 2014 at 8:27am: Dimitris,

It is a very tricky problem!

Can u do a favor foe me, Can u check this folder if it exists or not

C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\.NETFramework

is there any folder v4.0 or v.4.5 ?

Thanks,

Comment by Dimitrios Papadopoulos on June 3, 2014 at 7:29am: Hello Elcin,

I thought so also but everything is 64bit and the PC is quite powerful. (Intel Xeon X5570 2.93GHz (2 processors), 24GB Ram, NVidia Quadro 2000).

Not sure what the issue could be.

Dimitris

Comment by Elcin Ertugrul on June 2, 2014 at 10:27am: Dimitrious,

My best guess is this might be related to your system. Are u using 64 bit platform (Rhino) and 64 bit run time ?
