About QGIS 2 Cookbook
Key FeaturesExplore and create time-based visualizations and build interactive mapsMaximize your use of the QGIS features, plugins and toolbox automationPacked with lots of sample datasets to enable a better understanding of the codeBook DescriptionQGIS is a user-friendly, cross-platform desktop geographic information system used to make maps and analyze spatial data. QGIS allows users to understand, question, interpret, and visualize spatial data in many ways that reveal relationships, patterns, and trends in the form of maps. This book is a collection of simple to advanced techniques that are needed in everyday geospatial work, and shows how to accomplish them with QGIS. You will begin by understanding the different types of data management techniques, as well as how data exploration works. You will then learn how to perform classic vector and raster analysis with QGIS, apart from creating time-based visualizations. Finally, you will learn how to create interactive and visually appealing maps with custom cartography. By the end of this book, you will have all the necessary knowledge to handle spatial data management, exploration, and visualization tasks in QGIS.What you will learnImport and export common tricky spatial data formatsPerform classic vector and raster analysis with QGISUtilize spatial databases and data management toolsUse and create geographic web services and mapsExplore and create time-based visualizationsPerform network building and routing analysisExtend QGIS capabilities with popular plugins and toolbox automationMake beautiful and unique maps with customized cartographyAbout the AuthorAlex Mandel is a geospatial scientist who has a PhD in geography and more than 12 years of experience in applying GIS to a variety of projects.
