[Qgis-user] warper for vector layers?

2011-10-25 Thread Agustin Lobo
Hi! We have a vector layer that has been digitized over a raster with wrong settings (wrong pixel resolution). Is there any way to correct the geometry of the vector layer by defining control points with the new coordinates and apply a warping in qgis? Agus

I don't think Qgis has vector warping tools. The Georeferencer plugin manages only raster data, and for its polynomial transformations based on GCPs use GDAL directly, which itself implements warping for rasters only. I think that writing a warping plugin for vectors woudn't be too hard, but it's
