Hi list,
using
GDAL > Raster projections > Assign projection
did the trick.
Now I get beautiful contour lines as expected (directly in QGIS).

Thanks you Alister for pointing this out!

Regards,
Rolnad

Hi Roland,

I note that your gdalinfo output does not include the usual "Coordinate System 
is:" section after the "Size" line.
You will probably find it works as expected if you rectify this, by specifying 
a projection using the "assign projection" or "translate (convert format)" QGIS 
processing tools.

I tend to have the same problem when working with "Arc/Info ASCII Grid" files 
produced by 12D - in this case gdalinfo prints a "Coordinate System is:" 
section but it just looks like this, instead of actually having the coordinate 
system details:

Coordinate System is `'

I simply use "translate (convert format)" to convert to a geotiff and specify 
the correct coordinate system, and I have no problem generating contours from 
that geotiff.


PS I was only able to read your email after clicking the link for the 
"scrubbed" html attachment, and ignoring all the html code - see above.  If you 
want everybody on the list to actually read your emails you should configure 
your email client to also send plain text email instead of just sending html 
email.

Regards,
Alister

Just wanted to add that I also tried the latest gdal_contour CLI command - with 
the same result.
 
gdalinfo of the raster-tif says:

Anything wrong with it?

It has been generated by SAGA by rastering a pointcloud.

Betreff: [Qgis-user] Create contours algorithm does not work

Hi,
I have a 1-band raster representing the surface of a road - the pixels hold the 
z-values/elevation.
I have loaded it into QGIS and used "contours" as renedering method. The result 
looks good, I additionally have the same raster with hillshading as rendering - 
very pleasent - see
https://imgur.com/XMmMmdj
the fuzzy black lines are the contours, the light area is the hillshaded 
z-raster.
 
One drawback of the on-the-fly contours is that they are limited to a minimum 
interval of 0.1 m. As the surface is very flat (a road), I would like to have a 
more dense set of contours (0.02 m, e.g.).
 
I tried the contours function (GDAL > Raster extraction > contours) from the 
processing toolbox. It created a new layer with a plausible number of lines, 
but the lines are not visible, no matter what I try. The log of Contour is 
below - I do not see anything special.
I tried to calculate the length of the geometries, but I get "nan" for each.
 
Any ideas why the contours function does not produce meaningful output while 
the rendering as contours works beautifully?
 
Kind regards,
Roland
