Quick Installation Guide

You first need to have QGIS installed. Grab your free copy from the QGIS download page.

To install the InaSAFE plugin, use the plugin manager in QGIS:

Plugins → Manage and Install Plugins

Then search for "InaSAFE", select it and click the install button. The plugin will now be added to your plugins menu.

Note: You may need to restart QGIS if upgrading from a prior version.

Participation

We work under the philosophy that stakeholders should have access to the development and source code, and be able to participate in every level of the project - we invite comments, suggestions and contributions. See our milestones list and our open issues list for known bugs and outstanding tasks. You can also chat live with our developers and community members using the link below.

System Requirements

• A standard PC with at least 4GB of RAM running Windows, Linux or Mac OS X
• The QGIS Open Source Geographic Information System (http://www.qgis.org). Although InaSAFE will probably run on any version of QGIS version above 2.0 or newer, our supported version is the latest Long Term Release version of QGIS.

Running tests

• InaSAFE is using the Unittest Python framework.
• Different ways that you can run tests:
  • On Travis using a Pull Request
  • In QGIS Desktop if you enable developer mode in Plugins -> InaSAFE -> Options -> Advanced, restart QGIS and then click the run tests button.
  • Using docker make docker-test
  • Using PyCharm if you set up the dev environment with the qgisprefixpath
