Exploring the New Elevation Profile Tool with Point Clouds in QGIS 3.26

There's a new Profile Tools available from QGIS 3.26. In this video we explore how to use it to visualize transects using a point cloud layer of Rotterdam.
QGIS version: 3.26
Open data:

Been waiting so ,long for this feature. can finally do Microwave desktop LOS surveys!!!

[@rifkiwahyupratama8003]

Sorry, I want to ask, in my capture curve there is no yellow circle around the point, so the image that is formed is only a line without an area, how do I make the yellow circle appear?😢😢

[@ewanharris5433]

Awesome

This is awesome

Hi Hans, thank you for the video. Does this native tool works also with raster DEM or only with point cloud?

[@HansvanderKwast]

It also works with rasters and even with contour lines. See Nyall Dawson's video. Link in description.

Mind blown... Next step for me: create 3d videos of flood events!

Is there a download page of point cloud like u use in this tutorial for philippines?

[@mandata143]

Wala boss. Mostly USGS and private surveying companies na may mga lidar processing ang kaya mag provide nyan.

[@jakemercado2134]

Where did u get the vector that u used in this video?

[@mervangunes4020]

How can i do it for another country? For example for Turkey.

[@HansvanderKwast]

LiDAR data are normally collected by authorities of a country or private companies. It is rare that this is open data that you can easily download. OpenTopography collects open data on elevation: opentopography.org/. You can also create point clouds by processing drone image with for example ODM or WebODM (courses.gisopencourseware.org/course/view.php?id=32).

[@brianmghanga8048]

seems like they took down the link

[@giskernelgeosolutionsprovi3544]

Is it in python ?

[@HansvanderKwast]

This is in QGIS interface.
