Feature Description

Hi All,

In the Netherlands we have some 'base registers', one for example for all kind of 'plans and rules around the environment'.

For these plans they create HUGE sld's (with like > 16000 rules only for polygons, and they have those (smaller) also for points and lines). The biggest problem is that the filling of those polygons are actually small svg's.
See https://github.com/Geonovum/TPOD/tree/master/visualisatie in interested.

One problem is that a rulebased QML with 16000 rules and then pointing to a couple of thousands svg's is awfully slow... only the qml without images in it, is already 5.5 MB

So one plan is to create a CATEGORISED-style-qml for this, and then insert the svg's as base24 encoded image strings INTO the style. Making it much easier for users to load these styles. Categorised rendering is also much faster in QGIS (in this case it is possible because every rule is just checking the value of a symbol code to some kind of string/value).

So in the end I would have 3(4?) qml files: polygon, line and point and one other.

Q: Would hub.qgis.org then the place to make those available for Dutch QGIS users?

Q: And if so, do they then have to actively download/install them? Or can I do that from within a plugins (we are thinking about a plugin which downloads all those geoms for an area and then style them in this proper styling)...

There is (still) also the 'QGIS Resource Sharing plugin'...

I just want to make it as easy as possible to retrieve and style this data for our dutchies :-)

Any pointers appreciated!
