Using recent Safecast plugin for QGIS on macOS--Help!

[David Wood]

Dear bGeigie Nano + QGIS users,

The good old Safecast plugin [qgis-safecast-plugin] for QGIS versions 2.x was very useful to me in processing bGeigie Nano log files several years ago. I have recently downloaded the current version of the plugin from https://github.com/OpenGeoLabs/qgis-safecast-plugin where it is referred to as the QGIS Radiation Toolbox, and am trying to load the plugin to a macOS version of QGIS-LTR (3.22.12)

I have read https://opengeolabs.github.io/qgis-safecast-plugin/installation.html but it appears to be relevant only once the plugin has been correctly installed, and mostly for Windows.

Upon importing the plugin as a .zip file (made WITHOUT the macOS GUI-based compress utility, instead with the command-line version of zip), QGIS reports

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'qgis.PyQt.QtCore.QtGui'; 'qgis.PyQt.QtCore' is not a package

The paths above looks benign to me. However, if I then examine Installed plugins, I see that the Safecast Plugin is INSTALLED and shown in bold red, with the warning: This plugin is incompatible with this version of QGIS
Plugin designed for QGIS 2.14 - 2.99

If I use the QGIS python console and type in import sys, print (sys.version) gives:

3.8.7 (default, Feb 10 2021, 09:04:08)
[Clang 12.0.0 (clang-1200.0.32.29)]

This looks consistent with what what I saw above.

The About QGIS panel gives:

Are there other Mac QGIS users who also use the Safecast plugin? Any suggestions?

Interestingly, I get "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'qgis.PyQt.QtCore.QtGui'; 'qgis.PyQt.QtCore' is not a package “ even under Windows 11.

Thanks!

Dear all,

Please ignore my previous post—I struggled so long that I must have mis-loaded the wrong plugin source. All is well using the Radiation Toolbox plugin, and thanks to those who wrote it.

Thanks David glad to hear this! I will have to find the source to see
how they got past the 25 row limit I am seeing!

Dear Tony,

the Radiation Toolbox plugin has different use - it was developed to display and possibly also edit (crop, split, delete some parts) of the single LOG files from bGeigie Nano device - before you upload it to the API or for offline data viewing in the field etc.

In your case it is important if you want to add the stationary stations to your app or also the data from mobile measurements - in case you wanted to add the interpolated layer like the Safecast Map uses, you might study more the documentation and code of the tilemap - I am not programmer and have no idea if it is possible to load the Safecast map tiles in 3rd party app... Someone from the Safecast crew might know more.

regards

Jan

Thanks Jan. I was able to get past 25 records and now up to 1k records per rest call which I believe is the limit for a rest call. I was able to display those and now up to nearly a month of data or nearly 900k records. I had some other priorities and may look at it later.

Regards,

-Tony
