#QGIS

30 posts28 participants1 post today

I am toying with the idea to build a (physical) globe 🌍 myself. Preferably using #QGIS and maybe Inkscape for final touches (or other OS tools).

I would like to design the globe as far as possible in QGIS and then use an appropriate projection to output the lobes. Then glue to a sphere using wallpaper glue etc. - I imagine it difficult to get the labels right.

Surprisingly, I can find few resources on how to approach such a project.

Any pointers or own experience?

Das HLNUG (Hess. Umweltamt) hat seinen Workflow zur Biotopkartierung auf #OpenSource umgestellt, um den Workflow zu vereinfachen und zu vereinheitlichen. Das wurde auch mittels eines QGIS-Plugin umgesetzt. Spannender Ansatz, um schon bei der Erhebung und Eingabe qualitativ hochwertige Daten zu erzeugen.

🚀 QGIS Processing Scripts can now be shared via the QGIS Resources Hub! 🎉

They’re efficient, lightweight tools for automating tasks in , requiring & skills. Easier to develop than plugins, they’re perfect for customizing workflows.
