Open Hazards PH QGIS Browser
Open Hazards PH QGIS Browser is a Python script that you can run in QGIS that lets you add geospatial hazard data created by various agencies in the Philippines as connections in the QGIS Browser. It currently adds WMTS from https://github.com/maning/open-hazards-ph.
It is inspired by Klas Karlsson’s (@klakar) qgis_basemaps.py script.
HOW-TO
Open the QGIS Python Console 
(CTRL + ALT + P)
Click Show Editor 
(the icon that looks like a notepad with a pen)
Copy the code below (or the content of open_hazards_ph_qgis_browser.py) in the editor
"""
This script should be run from the Python Console inside QGIS (CTRL + ALT + P).
It adds online sources to the QGIS Browser.
Each source should contain a list with the following items (string type):
[sourcetype, title, authconfig, password, referer, url, username]
You can add or remove sources from the sources section of the code.

# Add sources to QGIS Browser
for source in sources:
connectionType = source[0]
connectionName = source[1]
QSettings().setValue("qgis/%s/%s/authcfg" % (connectionType, connectionName), source[2])
QSettings().setValue("qgis/%s/%s/password" % (connectionType, connectionName), source[3])
QSettings().setValue("qgis/%s/%s/referer" % (connectionType, connectionName), source[4])

QSettings().setValue("qgis/%s/%s/username" % (connectionType, connectionName), source[6])
# Update GUI
iface.reloadConnections()
Run
The connections should now be added in the Browser. If not, refresh the Browser.

What is the license of the data?
We respect the license of the original source, each data source and data files have a corresponding license file. License varies from different agencies, in most cases government data are public domain.
Most data archived here are available in other government websites, why do this?
Philippine government data policy changes from the tenure of an administration to another, we want to ensure that what was public will remain public even if projects ran out of funds or there is a change in access policy.
I found some cool hazards data, will you host it?
Yes! Please open a ticket on the open-hazards-ph repo and let’s discuss.
