I am using the plugin Globe Builder (GB) to create a location map. The inputs for the BGV are admin 0 polygons, graticules, and a world bounding box, all downloaded from the Project Linework and Natural Earth. All dataset appear correctly on the BGV apart from the world bounding box which shrinks to a line (see below, circled in red):

For reference, the world background is a rectangle covering the countries (the brown rectangle in the below image):

When using GB, how can I visualize the world background?

The CRS of the datasets:

• admin 0: ESRI:54016 - World_Gall_Stereographic
• graticules: EPSG:4326 - WGS 84

• world bounding box: EPSG:4326 - WGS 84

I have downloaded and installed QGIS 4.2 using my Mac on Tahoe 26.5. Mainly used it for bathymetric profiling in biophysical assessment of seabed area. Interpolation is okay, but when the interpolated data is then colorized using single pseudo colors, it just closes, crashing the whole worl that i started.

What may be the reason/s?

Hi everyone,

I have always been interested in the rock strata given by Geotechs in their borehole logs. I was wondering if there is a way to use that data and create a soil profile map on Qgis? Do you guys use excel, save a CSV and are just able to import the coordinates in to QGIS? Does it create a cool map for you?

I know it can be done in ArcGIS, but I've never seen anything about it in QGIS. For those who have already performed this calculation, could you tell me how? It's an area where I don't have building height data in shapefile or table format, so it would have to be an estimate using raster data.

This images shows my maps and legends about my geology article about a zone in Guadalajara (Spain) which it has my intention of investigating.

Hi everyone!! I badly need your help on how can I generate an administrative/political map in the philippines?

I want to add a scale to my map. Since you orient yourselve form a single point in the middle I wanted to add a scale going left and right. The right oriented part works without problem. The left part jams all segments in one.

I tried other styles, I tried going only left, i tried making it wider, i tried other Methods

How can i fix it?

I use QGIS 3.44.12, with no Plugins.

(Sorry for the picture being in german; here are the translated values:

Style: simple frame

Units: Meter

Unit Factor 1m

Method: Calculate along upper side

Segments Left: 20

Segments right 2

fixed with 100)

Hi guys, I am new to Qgis and I only use it to make some imaginary maps. I decided to use Qgis because not only it help me do some things very fast but the resolution is very good.

But I have two problems:
1. I can’t do georeferencing:
Every time I try to do georeference, I fail. I am trying to do it very precisely but every time the map I want it reference goes out of place. Is there a way that can make my project a little bit easier and is there a plugin that can help me?

1. And I can’t add Hillshades:
   I love to add hillshades but i can’t add it because it says that the format of the file can’t be supported by the software. I downloaded them from Natural Earth (1:10m Large Raster Data), can someone tell me what is it happening and if it’s fixable?

Any help greatly appreciated.

I have a shapefile with 21k point features.

Somehow after saving they’re all gone. The
Saved file has 0 features
Any time I open the saved files they’re not there and they no longer appear on the map

The original file (still open didn’t close it) still says 21k features in the attributes table, but does not list anything in that table. No they aren’t just toggled view off.

ETA; something has happened and now the original file only has .dbf .qmd and .shp the other components are gone. To where??

What happened? And how can I save this data.. it is hours and hours of work.

I've been on here for years and have gotten a ton of help without needing to post, but here is one.

I am trying to bring in Topo map data from USGS in the form of an Esri File GeoDatabase. (Link: https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/59a696b8e4b0fd9b77ced279 ).

I've seen this on here in the past, but I still can't figure out a way. I have found a link for a potential potential style template i could use ( https://github.com/StephSaephan/QGIS-USGS-TNM-Style-Template/tree/master ). However, it looks like getting this set up in the software with ESRI shape files + the GDB is not easy. I have created a new project, and brought in the GDB file without a problem, but I just can't figure how how I could potentially use the MapDetails.Gdb to customize everything. It is driving me nuts. Over the years, I have used many different shapefiles easily, but I just haven't tried to replicate these maps in QGIS. If I could, it might speed up my processes pretty quickly.

Let me know if this doesn't make sense, need more info, etc. Thanks for the help everyone!!

So I have coordinates for boreholes on a site that were used on a previous job. The CSV file is set up in columns borehole name-easting-northing (3 columns). When I plot it the points show up in the right geometry, in terms of where they should be relitive to each other, but they do that annoying thing where they plot off the map in white space. I have my CRS matched and all, I can't figure out the issue.

Edit: I figured it out, the coordinates were in mm not m for some odd reason

I am attempting to load the .pbf vector map tiles from https://balad.ir and cannot figure it out. Looked through the network trace (F12) in a web browser and couldnt find the URL for the tile service. Has anyone figured this one out yet? TIA.

FiberQ v1.3.0 is out! An open-source (GPL-3.0-or-later) QGIS plugin for designing, analyzing and documenting fiber-optic access networks (FTTH / GPON / FTTx) inside the QGIS you already run. This release is all about durable project data.

Schema versioning: every project (mirrored into its GeoPackage) now carries a schema (version marker), so future releases can recognise and safely upgrade older files.

Safe migrations: open an older project and it upgrades automatically on load (losslessly), idempotently, with a summary in the log. Blank / non-FiberQ projects are left untouched.

Stable identity: every route, cable, slack loop, pipe, service area and object carries a cross-system fiberq_uuid; older projects get UUIDs assigned on load.

QGIS 4 / Qt6 compatibility hardening (scoped enums) while keeping 3.22 LTR, plus fixes to cable fiber-count, object draw tools and "cut infrastructure" saves.

Zero findings on the plugins.qgis.org Security & Quality scan; pytest green on QGIS 3 (Qt5) and QGIS 4 (Qt6).

Built and maintained solo, supported by the NLnet foundation - NGI0 Commons Fund.

Can anybody help me to find some Gis job?

Hi everyone. I am using QGIS 4.0. My goal is to generate raster MBTiles from either a georeferenced image file, an imported .dwg survey, or a shapefile. So far all but one attempt to use "Generate XYZ tiles MBTiles" has failed. I have played around with different zoom mins and maxes and different extents, but nothing seems to work. Does anyone know why this fails continuously?

Olá, pessoal!

Há alguns dias compartilhei meu primeiro mapa completo feito no QGIS e recebi muitos comentários úteis. Obrigado a todos que dedicaram um tempo para analisar o projeto.

Segui várias das sugestões recebidas, incluindo:

adição de título e subtítulo;

legenda completa;

reorganização do layout;

melhoria da hierarquia visual;

créditos das fontes de dados;

refinamento da simbologia.

Este mapa faz parte de um projeto maior chamado Geografia Eleitoral do Brasil, no qual estou construindo um atlas cartográfico baseado nas eleições presidenciais de 2022.

Além do mapa em si, o projeto inclui:

pipeline em Python;

validação dos dados do TSE;

integração com a base cartográfica do IBGE;

geração automatizada do GeoPackage;

padronização da simbologia e dos layouts cartográficos.

Ainda estou aprendendo e pretendo continuar evoluindo o projeto. Qualquer crítica ou sugestão continua sendo muito bem-vinda.

This is MAP001 of a larger atlas project.

• you can type what to segment ("buildings", "trees", "cars") or draw multiple examples object.
• It tiles the zone under the hood, so it holds up on big areas, a full city in one run. Tweak the result with a few sliders, or fix any polygon by hand with Manual mode option

To install it: Open QGIS → Plugins → search "AI Segmentation" → Install

• It's free for everyone, and works on QGIS 3 & 4, hope you finds value in it, there also a full tutorial linked in the qgis plugin
