Start digitizing

  1. Mark the new vector file in the Layers window. Start the edit mode by clicking the Toggle editing button QGIS 2.0 Edit.png.
  2. Let's start with land cover class Water. Use the European Urban Atlas to find water bodies. Zoom in to a lake.
  3. Click Add feature QGIS 2.0 Addpolygon.png to start digitizing. Start drawing polygons with left click. Finish the geometry by right-clicking.
  4. Enter the LUC class in the C_ID field. OK
