Hi All, I am looking to run QGIS and trying to determine the best resource to get it going. I am trying to decide between PSC (Bridges-2) or NCSA Delta if its possible to install or use QGIS. I’ll also be running WRF (weather forecasting) model add-on as well. Let me know any thoughts you all may have.
Thank you for your comments:)
agbeli,
If you already have accounts on PSC (Bridges-2) or NCSA Delta, you can login and check to see if QGIS is already installed. If it is not installed you can install it yourself from the binary. There is a binary for many flavors of GNU/Linux. You will do the installation in your home directory if that is allowed, but it is not the case then you should contact the user support of either Bridges-2 or NCSA Delta for help. For Linux OSs other than /GNU/Linux, you or the Technician helping will build from source
It looks like QGIS is primarily a Desktop Application so you will have to use a GUI interface to launch the application. Bridges-2 or NCSA Delta should have documentation on how to do this. This is doable with some effort and time.
Happy computing
