Re: [Qgis-user] Print one map for every category in layer with fixed extent

Hi again, And thanks Alexandre for the alternative solution. Your workflow is quite flexible and powerful too, and seems to be a bit more simple. Yet, I still assume (from the experience within my organization) that it is still a bit too complex for people who use QGIS (or GIS in general)

Re: [Qgis-user] Print one map for every category in layer with fixed extent

So, Imagining that you have layer as a regular grid. Each cell has, for different species, the number of individuals found stored in columns. You want to keep the map always with the same extent and iterate over the columns (species). With atlas, all you need is a layer with a list of the names

Re: [Qgis-user] Print one map for every category in layer with fixed extent

Hi Alexandre, Currently I have a layer per species, but species could also be in one layer with names of the different species in the attribute table… I already compiled a little Python script for my use case, however, if there is an existing function for that is better of course… Thanks for

No python, plain atlas with data defined properties. A dom, 5/02/2017, 18:59, Alexandre Neto escreveu: > In the layer, where is the species recorded? In Columns? > > If so, I have a workflow for that. > > A sáb, 4/02/2017, 08:38, Blumentrath, Stefan

In the layer, where is the species recorded? In Columns? If so, I have a workflow for that. A sáb, 4/02/2017, 08:38, Blumentrath, Stefan escreveu: > Thanks Andreas for the excellent procedure description. > > > > Good to know that Python is not required for that,

Re: [Qgis-user] Print one map for every category in layer with fixed extent

Thanks Andreas for the excellent procedure description. Good to know that Python is not required for that, and that there is a nice, flexible, and efficient solution! For someone who uses QGIS on a regularly basis, this is actually much less work than it might seem at a first look. However, I

Re: [Qgis-user] Print one map for every category in layer with fixed extent

Hi Stefan, It is possible without the help of Python. You would have to split up the species into layers. Then create an atlas layer that is the geometry you want joined with every possible layer. You can use QGIS virtual layers for that which you can define in DB manager. Or use a Postgis
