- This article is part of the QGIS tutorial 2013/14.
In this article you will learn how to create test areas for landscape classification.
- Generating sample points
- Load the raster map 188_pca_indices, which should be available in the course data.
- Open Vector --> Research tools --> regular points. If not selected by default, set the Input Boundary Layer to 188_pca_indices.
- Select the radio button Use this number of points and set the number to 50.
- Set Initial set from corner (LH side)
- Enter the file name and path by clicking Browse. You may use 188_pca_indices_points as a file name.
- Confirm with OK. Let the new layer be added to the TOC.
- Buffering sample points
- Open Vector --> Geoprocessing tools --> Buffer. Select the generated points shapefile as input layer.
- Enter 2000 (meter) as Buffer distance.
- Enter a file path and name, e.g. 188_pca_indices_buffer, confirm with OK and confirm the following dialogue to let the result be added to the project.
