Qgis-user Digest, Vol 27, Issue 13

I think in the end this would 
require an ogr/gdal driver for sp objects as Barry Rowlingson has 
previously suggested here, and in the r-sig-geo lists.

Progress on this has been minimal: I managed to create an ogr driver 
with a new name! There's a few places that you need to edit to link in 
the new driver in the ogr build system. Then I started to worry about 
how to link in to libR.so and stopped there. I need to find out how the 
OGR build system works with other library dependencies, and that 
probably means understanding autoconf... Beyond me at the moment...

I have started to look at some brushing and linking functions using the 
iPlots R package, and should hopefully be able to implement some of 
these things in the future...?

Isn't the ultimate in linking and brushing GGobi? There's a link from 
R to GGobi for displaying R data in GGobi. What might be nice would be a 
GGobi plugin for Qgis - set up so that brushed items in the GGobi view 
are highlighted in the Qgis map.

  I've looked at the C code in the R-GGobi interface and it looks very 
difficult....
