Add two layers to the map create a new selection based on your parameters…and there are a lot of parameters. Spatial Query Plugin – This plugin offers about every select by location choice you can come up with at any given time. Process Lidar….Pan Sharpen Landsat…and build networked vector datasets – and more. You get GRASS Software’s 30 year goodness into your GIS. For those of you who have opened GRASS and have went “Oh.My.GOD” – you are still going to do this….but it’s a lot easier to use.
Quickmap services plugin qgis install#
For those of you in ArcGIS land you have this extension called Spatial Analyst and several other “analyst” extensions. This plugin connects you to the underlying GRASS Software install and lets you view and run GRASS Commands from within QGIS. I made the jump from 2.8.X to 2.12 in the last few months. Grass 7 – At the time this is written 2.12 is out. I don’t use every tool – but it adds enough tools I like to make it work. Cut layers, flip lines, and fill gaps between polygons. I missed clip (the one under the editor toolbar) and that is back. I missed explode – this plugin provides provides that functionality. It’s a handy plugin if you’re using databases (postgis and spatialite) to store your data and I’m doing that very thing more and more these days.ĭigitizing Tools – There were certain things I missed when making the transition from ArcGIS. You can import and export data in and out of those two databases. For those of you in MSSQL land or Oracle land – there’s probably other ways to pass SQL commands to a database. Since that’s what I use (and shapefiles occasionally) it works.
Quickmap services plugin qgis download#
you get them when you download QGIS) and some you have to download through the plugin manager.Īzimuth and Distance Plugin – What happens when someone hands you a pile of bearings and distances and wants you to build a property boundary? This plugin makes it pretty easy to put all that surveyed information into QGIS only to see it not close at the end (ha).ĭB Manager – This plugin comes in core. This isn’t all the ones you could use – just the ones I use weekly (sometimes daily). So what plugins do I tell people use? So what do I use and how does that relate to ArcGIS Desktop? I was having a conversation with a client and the question of plugins came up. Generally I found that everyone was over whelmed and couldn’t decide in 20 minutes. I used to make you pick and tell me why the plugin you installed was awesome. Plugins are an excellent way to extend functionality of QGIS. One of the things that comes up in the intro to QGIS class are plugins.
