    We are constantly making improvements to our user interface. If the UI in this video doesn't match the current UI of the Equator platform, watch our latest video on extracting data from Equator's newest interface: ua-cam.com/video/Ogy6F-Fczac/v-deo.html

      QGIS has changed their interface and tools in the latest versions. An alternative to the Vector > Contours option is to use the Contour plugin.

    Amazing. I will be using similar visualizations for drone survey vs goog earth resolution in a digital portfolio format. But I will have to include a video presentation. You did this so well.

    WOW! I'm not completely following what you're doing here, but I've been very interested in maps, topo, and lidar. I just searched you tube to see if there's anything I don't know, and obviously there is! Oddly enough the spot you zoomed into is 2 counties north of me in Iowa! On the site I use we just got 2020 lidar color hillshade for my area, which is awesome! It picks up my ATV trails through the timber, even logs lying on the forest floor. I use the maps to help with farm maintenance and also help in my hunt for arrowheads. And it's just neat to explore places I normally wouldn't be able to go.

    How can I get an elevation profile/cross section like you show in Excel from geotiff LIDAR data?

    • @equatorstudios
      @equatorstudios  2 роки тому

      Once you have a LiDAR file imported onto the map, use the cross section tool on the right-hand toolbar. Then, after the profile is drawn, click 'view cross section' in the menu on the left.

    Hi, first time to see equator app, just asking is it free and is it cover the entire world? Bcoz sometimes it's only in the US.... thanks

    • @equatorstudios
      @equatorstudios  3 роки тому +2

      You can access 30 m DEM data anywhere in the world using Equator. The high-resolution lidar is only in the US, some parts of Canada, and New Zealand. Some aspects of the platform are free and other's are paid. You can try everything out for free though!

    using qgis 3.36.1 under vector tab cannot find contour

    • @equatorstudios
      @equatorstudios  8 місяців тому

      In the older version of QGIS, the Contours is under the Vector tab. This is not available in the more recent versions, so an alternative method would be to us the Contour plugin.

    Is it a fee to extract and download contours from a map?

    • @equatorstudios

      Equator offers a free trial that allows you to extract and download contours for a limited number of project locations. After the trial has ended, there is a fee.
