{"name": "Cutbacks Detector", "package_name": "cutbacks_detector", "description": "Find oversized segments (gaps) and sharp-angle vertices (kinks) in line and polygon layers.", "about": "Cutbacks Detector inspects line and polygon vertices for two kinds of defect. In \"gaps\" mode it flags every segment whose length between two consecutive vertices exceeds a user-defined threshold. In \"kinks\" mode it flags every vertex where the line changes direction by at least a chosen number of degrees - from a gentle bend in a should-be-straight line to a spiky hairpin - the breaks that sit between short segments and that a distance check cannot catch. For polygons every ring (the outer boundary and any inner holes) is checked, including the corner that closes each ring. Distances are measured with a CRS-aware QgsDistanceArea (works for projected and geographic CRSs) or in raw map units. Results are delivered as a styled, severity-coloured point layer on the canvas plus optional CSV and GeoJSON reports. Processing runs on a background task with a progress bar and a working Cancel button, so large layers stay responsive.", "homepage": "https://github.com/ghazaaly23/cutbacks_detecator", "repository": "https://github.com/ghazaaly23/cutbacks_detecator", "tracker": "https://github.com/ghazaaly23/cutbacks_detecator/issues", "author": "Mustafa Nehad Elghazaly", "tags": ["vector", "polygon", "line", "topology", "angle", "validation", "cadastre", "vertices", "boundary", "ring", "qa", "quality", "linestring", "sharp", "kink", "gap", "break"], "downloads": 48, "latest_version": "1.5.0", "versions": [{"version": "1.5.0", "experimental": false, "qgis_min": "3.16.0", "qgis_max": "3.99.0", "downloads": 48, "uploaded_by": "MustafaELghazaly", "upload_datetime": "2026-07-06T06:10:17.620663"}]}
