GisBR QGIS 4 compatibility
QGIS 4 ready Active
Yes — GisBR supports QGIS 4 (declared max version 4.99.0).
Load official Brazilian spatial data (IBGE/IPEA geobr + censobr), build an OSM road network with real topology and connectivity checks, and run a municipal, regional, metropolitan or state Master Plan diagnostic with 75 data sources across 9 axes, using only the native QGIS API.
About
GISBR brings the "one line -> one layer" access of the geobr/censobr packages (IPEA) into QGIS as a Processing provider, using only the native QGIS/Qt API and the Python standard library (no geopandas/requests/pandas). Phase 1: legacy GeoPackage backend (geobr v1.7.0), fully native. Phase 2: Parquet backend (geobr v2.0.0) read via the GDAL Parquet driver or a pyarrow fallback, plus a join with census tables from censobr. On top of the geobr mirror, GISBR adds a municipal, regional, metropolitan or state Master Plan diagnostic: a dock panel (state -> municipality/RM) that loads 75 official data sources organized in 9 axes (transport, sanitation, demography, environment, education, health, urban, administrative, agriculture) from WFS, ArcGIS REST, Overpass, IBGE Agregados v3 and COG raster services, clipped to the municipality or metropolitan area polygon and saved to a local GeoPackage, with an optional Esri World Imagery satellite basemap. The OSM road network is built from the real OpenStreetMap topology, splitting ways into arcs at shared node_ids; the connectivity check runs against one network per execution, vehicle by default, with the pedestrian network available on demand through the Processing algorithm. A connectivity check layer flags islands, dangling and near-connected dead ends, one-way traps and node-less crossings, each with a type and a severity. The road network is also available as a Processing algorithm (gisbr:osm_network) and loads in the background, without freezing QGIS. Data in SIRGAS 2000 / EPSG:4674. Licensed under GPL-3.0.
