Hi Scott, Off the top of my head, these are some features QGIS has that ArcMap doesn't have:
- Live layer effects - Blending modes - Unique renderers for points like point cluster, point displacement & heatmap - Unique renderers for polygons like inverted polygons & 2.5D - Hillshade renderer for elevation data - Much better color picker interface with options not available in ArcMap - More unique sub-renders which can be used in combination with the above: Geometry generators, outline marker line, outline arrow... - - Styling dock - Support for a much wider array of vector and raster file formats (by an order of magnitude) including support for PostGIS, SpatiaLite, MSSQL, Oracle, DB2, Geonode... - QGIS is 64 bit vs 32 bit for ArcMap - QGIS has a significantly larger array of expression functions available which are available throughout the interface including data defined overrides - Global, Project and Layer Variables - Virtual Layers - In Esri speak what basically amounts to automatic annotation - Multiple maps per project file - Preview of valid bounds of a CRS Kurt Bird’s Eye View 3016 Santa Clara Ave SE Albuquerque, NM 87106 www.BirdsEyeViewGIS.com <http://www.birdseyeviewgis.com/>
