27.1.8.13. Variable distance buffer

Aviso

This algorithm is deprecated and can be removed anytime. Prefer using Buffer algorithm instead.

Computes a buffer area for all the features in an input layer.

The size of the buffer for a given feature is defined by an attribute, so it allows different features to have different buffer sizes.
