I managed to export my GIS map to my website through Qgis2Web. My map shows a daily view on a specific infestation of parasites in the poultry industry and I want this updated once a day, say at midnight CET.

Is there a way to do this?

  • Vote to reopen. This was closed unnecessarily. The OP asked whether he could automate the desktop application, 'Qgis2Web'. What about that is not focused and answerable? (FYI OP, to my knowledge the answer is "no", because you would need to automate the user's interaction with the GUI desktop application to create the output you need. As a general rule, if a task is performed in a GUI, but there is a desire to automate it, that's usually an indicator the task needs to be reevaluated for how it can be performed on a server without access to GUI software.) – elrobis Aug 05 '20 at 16:39
  • OP, one more thought. Assuming Qgis2Web translates your source data from shapefiles (csv's, etc) to GeoJSON, you might be able to have your web server run an ogr2ogr job on those layers, translating them from their source format to GeoJSON, then moving that GeoJSON output to the appropriate directory in your website. If this is all you need, just make sure the ogr2ogr job outputs the new file with the exact same name as the one it's replacing so your web map still recognizes it. – elrobis Aug 05 '20 at 17:03
  • How are you gathering your data, and how is it stored locally. As an alternative you might find that a WMS or WFS would work better, you'd just need to mange updating the datasource. – nmtoken Aug 06 '20 at 17:17
