Plugin for downloading GeoParquet data from cloud sources.

About

This plugin connects to cloud-based GeoParquet data and downloads the portion in the current viewport. The plugin comes with pre-configured sources for <a href="https://overturemaps.org/">Overture Maps</a>, <a href="https://source.coop/">Source Cooperative</a>, and you can enter the location of any online GeoParquet file or partition. It works best with the bbox struct from GeoParquet 1.1, but any GeoParquet file will work. You can save the output data as GeoParquet, GeoPackage, DuckDB, FlatGeobuf, or GeoJSON. The plugin does not require that your QGIS supports GeoParquet, as you can download data as GeoPackage, but GeoParquet generally works better (faster and better nested data). Most Windows installations come with it, and for Mac and Linux you can install via conda. For information on installing Geoparquet support see <a href="https://github.com/cholmes/qgis_plugin_gpq_downloader/wiki/Installing-GeoParquet-Support-in-QGIS">this wiki page</a>. The plugin depends on DuckDB, which should be installed automatically when you install the plugin. If you have issues with DuckDB installing please file an issue on the <a href="https://github.com/cholmes/qgis_plugin_gpq_downloader/issues">GitHub issue tracker</a>.
