In this short post, I would like to demonstrate to you the programmatic method of saving the custom shapes in OpenLayers as the .geoJSON file. Drawing your own features on the OpenLayers map canvas equipped with some existing layers, like it takes place in the case of the map rendered by the QGIS2Web plugin can … Read more
The georeferencing option in QGIS is very handy when we want to have some interesting images on the map canvas. I mean the map images in the vast majority (optionally historical maps), and they will be subject to my explanation in this article. The georeferencing is fairly possible by the Georeferencer plugin (Georeferencer GDAL), which … Read more
In this thread, I would like to describe a swift method, which allowed us to make some changes within the .kml files. I am focusing on the names of columns inherited from the .shp files, although the described method can be applied to other texts and even some values too. What is most important, we … Read more
In the last article about the OpenLayers output from the QGIS2Web plugin, I would like to give up the time for labelling issues, which I believe is another important element of our map, without which it can’t be displayed properly. Sometimes labelling is of the same importance as key, when we want to see where … Read more
Legend and scale besides the pop-up window and labeling is another important map element, which everyone wants to have clean and tidy. In this shorter (I hope) article I want to explain to you how to customize the legend for your OpenLayers map generated by the QGIS2web plugin and add some relevant elements like a … Read more
Continuing the explanation of the ways, where we can upgrade the QGIS2web plugin manually, I would like to explain how to expand the search range in this plugin for more than 1 layer. The plugin supports the option for 1 layer only, but if you need more, coding is required. My goal is to show … Read more
QGIS2web plugin is very handy because it is somewhat of a gateway between your QGIS project and its presence outside in the interactive version. The plugin is able to render as much as it can from our project in three types of interactive maps: Leaflet, OpenLayers, and Mapbox GL JS. The most important thing is, … Read more
Recently I showed you how to collect the speed limit data about the specified section of the road. It’s obviously a huge step toward the speed limit map preparation. Reading the last article you got to know some examples of beautiful and very useful speed limit maps. In this reading, you will get knowledge about … Read more
Today I would like to demonstrate how to georeference the AutoCad .dwg file in QGIS. The .dwg extension keeps layers, colours, line thickness etc. in other words all information included in the drawing file. This is the biggest advantage of drawing files over another AutoCad extension – the .dxf. This format, on the other hand, … Read more
The digitizing process is needed when we want to transform our map into vector data. This process is aimed at tracing the map features, which later appear as coordinates in either point, line, or polygon format. Digitizing is essential in the case where our data cannot be instantly integrated with the other GIS data. In … Read more
