Example 8: Map of Industrial Areas #8

Open jachym opened 6 years ago

In order to develop a Map of Industrial Areas, you need to download a layer with information about buildings and industrial areas like Urban Areas from Urban Atlas source. To specify a buffer for a given industrial object, use the tool provided in QGIS – Geoprocessing Tool

Buffer. The algorithm calculates the given buffer and other parameters that are included in the analysis process. We specify the scope of the output file. The map allows us to see places where, for example, residential buildings should not be located.

This is typically topic covered by national law. But we should be able to fulfill this task using 2 processes in row:

Vector to raster conversion
reclassification as in task #2 we identify the industrial areas
buffer as in task #6 where we let calculate some buffer around the area

Urbanatlas data can be downloaded from https://land.copernicus.eu/local/urban-atlas/urban-atlas-2012?tab=download but there is also public WMS service http://image.discomap.eea.europa.eu/arcgis/services/DownloadLayers/UA_UrbanAtlas_2012_DL/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS
