QCALVIEW 40.21 is the public, documented base. Beyond it, advanced development explores new ways to view, analyse, automate and connect geographic data — without publishing unreleased scripts or implementation details.
DEVELOPMENT DIRECTIONS
Some capabilities already exist in advanced development; others define clear directions for future work. They are shown here to make the potential of the project visible, while the public documentation remains focused on QCALVIEW 40.21.
| Domain | Public core | Development potential | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calibrated views | Available in 40.21 | Extended controls and workflows | Public |
| Multi-view workflows | — | Multiple coordinated viewers and viewpoint states | Advanced dev |
| Batch workflows | — | Repeatable operations across viewpoints, layers and outputs | Advanced dev |
| Analytical visibility | — | Observer/target analysis and reusable GIS results | Advanced dev |
| QGIS Processing | — | Reusable analytical and production algorithms | Advanced dev |
| Graphical Modeler workflows | — | Combine QCALVIEW-oriented operations with wider QGIS models | Development path |
| Blender bridge / Live Link | — | Connect geographically controlled scenes to richer 3D and rendering workflows | Development path |
| GPU acceleration | — | Higher-capacity rendering and large-scene performance | Long-term |
| Domain-specific analysis | — | Purpose-built extensions around real professional workflows | Sponsor-supported |
Advanced capabilities may be demonstrated without being released or documented publicly. Internal scripts and implementation details are not distributed as part of the public 40.21 release.
SUPPORT & SPONSORSHIP
General support helps the public plugin mature. Sponsored development is a separate path for organisations that want to explore or commission a specific capability.
Run QCALVIEW on representative projects, document reproducible issues and help expose edge cases.
Send testing feedback ↗Code, documentation, test datasets, translations and workflow feedback can all help QCALVIEW mature while remaining open source.
Project repository ↗Companies, laboratories, schools and organisations can discuss a defined capability, prototype, integration or analytical direction. Scope, access, deliverables and publication conditions are agreed for the project.
