11.1. 2D Map View

The 2D map view (also called Map canvas) is the central place where maps are displayed. QGIS opens by default with a single map view (called main map), showing layers in 2D, and tightly bound to the Layers panel. That window reflects the rendering (symbology, labeling, visibilities…) you applied to the loaded layers.

Fig. 11.1 Interface do QGIS

11.1.1. Explorando a visualização do mapa

When you add a layer (see e.g. Abrir Dados), QGIS automatically looks for its CRS. If a different CRS is set by default for the project (see Sistemas referência de coordenadas projetadas) then the layer extent is “on-the-fly” translated to that CRS, and the map view is zoomed to that extent if you start with a blank QGIS project. If there are already layers in the project, no map canvas resize is performed, so only features falling within the current map canvas extent will be visible.

Click on the map view and you should be able to interact with it, panning or zooming to different areas of the map. Dedicated tools are provided in the Navigation Toolbar and in the View menu, with handful shortcuts from the keyboard or the mouse buttons.

Right-click over the map and you should be able to Copy coordinates of the clicked point in the map CRS, in WGS84 or in a custom CRS. The copied information can then be pasted in an expression, a script, text editor or spreadsheet…

11.1.2. Controlling map rendering

By default, QGIS renders all visible layers whenever the map canvas is refreshed. The events that trigger a refresh of the map canvas include:

• changing the visibility of a layer

• modifying symbology of a visible layer

• adicionando uma camada

• panning or zooming

• redimensionando a janela QGIS

QGIS permite controlar o processo de renderização de várias formas.

• at the global level

• per layer, using e.g. the scale dependent rendering

• or with dedicated tools in the GUI.

To stop the map drawing, press the Esc key. This will halt the refresh of the map canvas and leave the map partially drawn. It may however take a bit of time after pressing Esc for the map drawing to halt.

To suspend rendering, click the Render checkbox in the bottom-right corner of the status bar. When Render is unchecked, QGIS does not redraw the canvas in response to any of the usual triggers mentioned earlier. Examples of when you might want to suspend rendering include:

• adding many layers and symbolizing them prior to drawing

• adding one or more large layers and setting scale dependency before drawing

• adding one or more large layers and zooming to a specific view before drawing

• qualquer combinação dos itens acima

11.1.3. Controle baseado no tempo na tela do mapa

O QGIS pode manipular o controle temporal em camadas carregadas, ou seja, modificar a renderização da tela de mapa com base em uma variação de tempo. Para conseguir isso, você precisa:

1. Camadas que têm propriedades temporais dinâmicas definidas. O QGIS suporta controle temporal para diferentes provedores de dados, com configurações personalizadas. Trata-se principalmente de definir o intervalo de tempo no qual a camada seria exibida:

   • raster layers: controls whether to display or not the layer.

   • WMTS layers: controls whether the data should be rendered based on a static time range or following a dynamic temporal range

   • vector layers: features are filtered based on time values associated to their attributes

   • mesh layers: displays dynamically the active dataset groups values

   When dynamic temporal options are enabled for a layer, an icon is displayed next to the layer in the Layers panel to remind you that the layer is temporally controlled. Click the icon to update the temporal settings.

2. Enable the temporal navigation of the map canvas using the Temporal controller panel. The panel is activated:

   • using the ^{Temporal controller panel} icon located in the Map Navigation toolbar

   • or from the View ► Panels ► Temporal controller panel menu

11.1.3.1. O painel de controle temporal

The Temporal controller panel has the following modes:

Fig. 11.2 Painel Controlador Temporal no modo de navegação

• ^{Desligar a navegação temporal}: todas as configurações temporais são desativadas e as camadas visíveis são renderizadas como de costume

• ^{Fixed range temporal navigation}: a time range is set and only layers (or features) whose temporal range overlaps with this range are displayed on the map.

• ^{Animated temporal navigation}: a time range is set, split into steps, and only layers (or features) whose temporal range overlaps with each frame are displayed on the map

• ^Definições para controle geral da animação

  • Frames rate: number of steps that are shown per second

  • Cumulative range: all animation frames will have the same start date-time but different end dates and times. This is useful if you wish to accumulate data in your temporal visualization instead of showing a ‘moving time window’ across your data.

11.1.3.2. Animando uma navegação temporal

Uma animação é baseada em um conjunto variável de camadas visíveis em momentos específicos dentro de um intervalo de tempo. Para criar uma animação temporal:

1. Toggle on the ^{Animated temporal navigation}, displaying the animation player widget

2. Digite o Faixa de tempo a considerar. Usando o botão , isto pode ser definido como:

   • Set to full range of all the time enabled layers

   • Set to preset project range as defined in the project properties

   • Set to single layer’s range taken from a time-enabled layer

3. Fill in the time Step to split the time range. Different units are supported, from seconds to centuries. A source timestamps option is also available as step: when selected, this causes the temporal navigation to step between all available time ranges from layers in the project. It’s useful when a project contains layers with non-contiguous available times, such as a WMS-T service which provides images that are available at irregular dates. This option will allow you to only step between time ranges where the next available image is shown.

4. Clique no botão para visualizar a animação. QGIS irá gerar cenas usando as camadas de renderização nos horários definidos. A exibição das camadas depende de se elas se sobrepõem a qualquer período de tempo individual.

   

   Fig. 11.3 Navegação temporal através de uma camada

   The animation can also be previewed by moving the time slider. Checking the Loop checkbox will repeatedly run the animation while clicking stops a running animation. A full set of video player buttons is available.

   Horizontal scrolling using the mouse wheel (where supported) with the cursor on the map canvas will also allow you to navigate, or “scrub”, the temporal navigation slider backwards and forwards.

5. Click the ^{Export animation} button if you want to generate a series of images representing the scene. They can be later combined in a video editor software:

   

   Fig. 11.4 Exporting map canvas animation scenes to images

   • O nome do arquivo Modelo: o #### é substituído pelo número da seqüência de quadros

   • O Diretório de saída

   • Sob :guilabel:`Configurações do mapa’, você pode:

     • redefinir a :ref:`extensão espacial <extent_selector>`a ser utilizada

     • control the Resolution of the image (Output width and Output height)

     • Draw active decorations: whether active decorations should be kept in the output

   • Sob :guilabel:`Configurações temporais’, você pode redefinir:

     • the time Range for the animation

     • the Step (frame length) in the unit of your choice

11.1.4. Bookmarking extents on the map

Spatial Bookmarks allow you to “bookmark” a geographic location and return to it later. By default, bookmarks are saved in the user’s profile (as User Bookmarks), meaning that they are available from any project the user opens. They can also be saved for a single project (named Project Bookmarks) and stored within the project file, which can be helpful if the project is to be shared with other users.

Decorations Settings

When you save a QGIS project file, any changes you have made to Grid, North Arrow, Scale Bar, Copyright and Layout Extents will be saved in the project and restored the next time you load the project.

11.1.6. Ferramentas de anotação

Annotations are another type of elements added onto the map canvas to provide additional information that can not be depicted by the rendered layers. Unlike labels that rely on attribute values stored in vector layers, annotations are independent details, stored within the project file itself.

Two families of annotations are available in QGIS:

• Feature annotations: they are actual georeferenced features of text, marker, line or polygon type stored within a special layer type called “annotation layer”. They are tied to a particular geographic location, meaning that moving your map, changing the scale or changing projection won’t cause your annotations to jump around the map. Rather, they’ll be locked in place to the location you’ve drawn them.

• Balloon annotations: these are individuals annotations of text, form or image type placed inside a bubble. They can be associated to any layer for their visibility, are drawn on top of the map canvas. The size is dependent from the map canvas scale, and its position can be anchored.

Dica

Layout the map with annotations

You can print or export annotations with your map to various formats using:

• map canvas export tools available in the Project menu

• print layout, in which case you need to check Draw map canvas items in the corresponding map item properties

The Annotations Toolbar provides a set of tools to create and interact with both families of annotations.

Tabela 11.3 The Annotations Toolbar actions

Ferramenta	Utilização	Scope
New Annotation Layer	Create a new layer to store annotations	Feature annotations
Main Annotation Layer Properties	Control settings of the Main Annotation Layer
Modify Annotations	Select, move, resize and modify symbology properties of annotations
Create Polygon Annotation	Create an annotation as a polygon feature
Create Line Annotation	Create an annotation as a polyline feature

Text Annotation	Select and create a text formatted annotation	Balloon annotations
HTML Annotation	Select and create annotation with an HTML file’s content
SVG Annotation	Select and create annotation showing an SVG file

11.1.6.1. Feature Annotations

Feature annotations are stored in annotation layers. Unlike conventional layers, an annotation layer is available only in the current project and can contain features of different types (text, marker, line, polygon). The layer has no attributes and no symbology associated, but instead each feature can be symbolized on an item-by-item basis, through Layer Styling panel.

Two types of annotation layer are available in QGIS:

• A common Annotation Layer: you can create one using the ^{New Annotation Layer} tool. It is listed in the Layers panel, allowing you to control its features’ visibility, move it to show above or below particular layers in your map, like any common layer. Double-click the layer and you can access its properties.

• The Main Annotation Layer: By default, this is where annotations are stored when no annotation layer is available in the project or is selected at creation time. This layer is always drawn on the very top of your map and you won’t see it listed in the Layers panel alongside the other layers in your project, meaning that its features are always visible. The Main Annotation Layer Properties entry on the Annotations toolbar helps you open its properties dialog.

Propriedades da Camada

The properties dialog of an annotation layer provides the following tabs:

• Information: a read-only dialog representing an interesting place to quickly grab summarized information and metadata on the current layer. This may include the layer extent, count of items per annotation type and total count, CRS details, …

• Source: defines general settings for the annotation layer. You can:

  • Set a Layer name that will be used to identify the layer in the project (in the Layers Panel, with expressions, …)

  • Display the layer’s Assigned Coordinate Reference System (CRS): you can change the layer’s CRS, selecting a recently used one in the drop-down list or clicking on ^{Select CRS} button (see Seletor do Sistemas de Referência de Coordenadas). Use this process only if the CRS applied to the layer is a wrong one or if none was applied.

• Rendering:

  • You can set the Maximum (inclusive) and Minimum (exclusive) scale, defining a range of scale in which features will be visible. Out of this range, they are hidden. The ^{Set to current canvas scale} button helps you use the current map canvas scale as boundary of the range visibility. See Visibility Scale Selector for more information.

  • Opacity: You can make the underlying layer in the map canvas visible with this tool. Use the slider to adapt the visibility of your vector layer to your needs. You can also make a precise definition of the percentage of visibility in the menu beside the slider.

  • Blending mode at the Layer level: You can achieve special rendering effects with these tools that you may previously only know from graphics programs. The pixels of your overlaying and underlying layers are mixed through the settings described in Modos de Mistura.

  • Aplique: ref: efeitos de pintura<draw_effects> em todos os recursos da camada com o botão: guilabel:  Efeitos de desenho.

  Some of these options are accessible from the feature annotation Symbology properties.

Interagindo com feições

The Feature annotations have dedicated tools for creation depending on their type:

• ^{Create Polygon Annotation}

• ^{Create Line Annotation}

• ^{Create Marker Annotation}

• ^{Create Text Annotation at Point}

• ^{Create Text Annotation along Line}

All the usual QGIS shortcuts for creating features apply when creating annotation items. A line or polygon annotation is drawn by left-clicking once for each vertex, with a final right mouse click to complete the shape. Snapping can be enabled while you draw, you can use the Advanced Digitizing Tools to precisely place vertices, and even switch the drawing tools to the streaming mode for completely free-form shapes.

Unlike common layers, an annotation layer does not need to be active before you select its features. Simply grab the ^{Modify Annotations} tool and you will be able to interact with any feature annotation:

• Selection: left-click on the annotation. By default, annotations are rendered in the order of creation, meaning that recent annotations will be placed on top of older. You may need to play with the Z-index property of features in order to select ones they would sit above.

• Moving: Left click on a selected annotation item to start moving it. A right-click or pressing Esc key cancels the move, while a second left click will confirm the move. The displacement can also be controlled pressing the cursor keys:

  • Shift+key for big movement

  • Alt+key for 1 px movement

• Geometry modification: for line or polygon annotations, left-click on a vertex of the geometry, move and click again. Double-click a segment to add a new vertex.

• Delete: Pressing the Del or Backspace key while an annotation is selected will delete that annotation

• Change feature symbology

Feature symbology

A selected annotation will display its Symbology properties in the Layer styling panel. You can:

• Modify the appearance using full capabilities of:

  • the symbol properties for polygon, polyline and marker annotations

  • the text format properties for text-based annotations. A text area allows you to construct the string to display using QGIS expression functions. It is also possible to set the Alignment for text annotation at point (left, center or right of the text point).

• For text annotation at point, also configure whether it should Ignore map rotation or Rotate with map. In both cases, a custom Angle can be set for the feature orientation.

• For text annotation along a line, configure an Offset from line in the unit of your choice

• Configure a Reference scale: indicates the map scale at which symbol or text sizes which uses paper-based units (such as millimeters or points) relate to. The sizes will be scaled accordingly whenever the map is viewed at a different scale. For instance, a line feature wide of 2mm at 1:2000 Reference scale will be rendered using 4mm when the map is viewed at 1:1000.

• Set a Z-index: a feature with a higher index is placed on top of features with lower index. A convenient setting for both feature display and selection.

• Modify some of the Layer rendering settings

11.1.6.2. Balloon annotations

You can add balloon annotations through Edit ► Add Annotation ► menu or from the Annotations Toolbar:

• ^{Text Annotation} for custom formatted text

• ^{HTML Annotation} to place the content of an html file

• ^{SVG Annotation} to add an SVG symbol

• ^{Form Annotation}: useful to display attributes of a vector layer in a customized ui file (see Fig. 11.14). This is similar to the custom attribute forms, but displayed in an annotation item. Also see this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pDBuSbQ02o&feature=youtu.be&t=2m25s from Tim Sutton for more information.

Fig. 11.14 Examples of balloon annotations

To add a balloon annotation, select the corresponding tool and click on the map canvas. An empty balloon is added. Double-click on it and a dialog opens with various options. This dialog is almost the same for all the annotation types:

• Na parte superior, um seletor de arquivo para preencher o caminho para um arquivo html, svg ou ui, dependendo do tipo de anotação. Para anotação de texto, você pode inserir sua mensagem em uma caixa de texto e definir sua renderização com as ferramentas de fonte normais.

• Fixed map position: when unchecked, the balloon placement is based on a screen position (instead of the map), meaning that it’s always shown regardless the map canvas extent.

• Linked layer: associates the annotation with a map layer, making it visible only when that layer is visible.

• Map marker: using QGIS symbols, sets the symbol to display at the balloon anchor position (shown only when Fixed map position is checked).

• Frame style: sets the frame background color, transparency, stroke color or width of the balloon using QGIS symbols.

• Contents margins: sets interior margins of the annotation frame.

• Live update allows you to live preview your changes.

Fig. 11.15 A ballon annotation text dialog

When a balloon annotation tool is active, you can also:

• Select an annotation

• Resize an annotation

• Move an annotation by map position (by dragging the map marker) or by moving only the balloon.

• Delete an annotation: select it and either press the Del or Backspace button, or double-click it and press the Delete button in the properties dialog.

• Right-click and in the contextual menu:

  • Copy coordinate of the annotation’s map marker in various CRS

  • Edit properties of the annotation. Same as double-clicking the annotation.

  • Delete the annotation

11.1.7. Medição

11.1.7.1. Informação Geral

O QGIS fornece quatro meios de medição de geometrias:

• interactive measurement tools

• measuring in the ^{Field Calculator}

• derived measurements in the Identificando Feições tool

• the vector analysis tool: Vector ► Geometry Tools ► Export/Add Geometry Columns

Measuring works within projected coordinate systems (e.g., UTM) and unprojected data. The first three measuring tools behave equally to global project settings:

• Diferentemente da maioria dos outros GIS, a métrica de medição padrão é elipsoidal, usando o elipsóide definido em Projeto ► Propriedades… ► Geral. Isso ocorre quando os sistemas de coordenadas geográficas e projetadas são definidos para o projeto.

• If you want to calculate the projected/planimetric area or distance using cartesian maths, the measurement ellipsoid has to be set to “None/Planimetric” (Project ► Properties… ► General). However, with a geographic (ie unprojected) CRS defined for the data and project, area and distance measurement will be ellipsoidal.

However, neither the identify tool nor the field calculator will transform your data to the project CRS before measuring. If you want to achieve this, you have to use the vector analysis tool: Vector ► Geometry Tools ► Add Geometry Attributes…. Here, measurement is planimetric, unless you choose the ellipsoidal measurement.

11.1.7.2. Measure length, areas, bearings and angles interactively

Click the icon in the Attribute toolbar to begin measurements. The down arrow near the icon switches between length, area, bearing or angle. The default unit used in the dialog is the one set in Project ► Properties… ► General menu.

For the Measure Line and the Measure Area the measurements can be done in Cartesian or Ellipsoidal measure.

Nota

Configurando a ferramenta de medição

While measuring length or area, clicking the Configuration button at the bottom of the widget opens the Settings ► Options ► Map Tools menu, where you can select the rubberband color, the precision of the measurements and the unit behavior. You can also choose your preferred measurement or angle units, but keep in mind that those values are overridden in the current project by the selection made in the Project ► Properties… ► General menu, and by the selection made in the measurement widget.

All measuring modules use the snapping settings from the digitizing module (see section Setting the snapping tolerance and search radius). So, if you want to measure exactly along a line feature, or around a polygon feature, first set its layer snapping tolerance. Now, when using the measuring tools, each mouse click (within the tolerance setting) will snap to that layer.

The ^{Measure Line} measures distances between given points. The tool then allows you to click points on the map. Each segment length, as well as the total, shows up in the measure window. In the measure window, you will see coordinates for all your points and distances. Keep in mind that the first row will contain only coordinates, as it represents your starting point. Now it is possible to copy all your line measurements at once to the clipboard using the Copy button. Clicking the Configuration button you will access to Measure Tool Copy Settings where you can set up copy options. To stop measuring, click the right mouse button.

Note that you can use the drop-down list near the total to change the measurement units interactively while working with the measure tool. This unit is retained for the widget until a new project is created or another project is opened.

The Info section in the dialog explains how calculations are made according to the CRS settings available.

^{Measure Area}: Areas can also be measured. In the measure window, the accumulated area size appears. Right-click to stop drawing. The Info section is also available as well as the ability to switch between different area units.

Fig. 11.17 Medir Área

^{Measure Bearing}: You can also measure bearings. The cursor becomes cross-shaped. Click to draw the first point of the bearing, then move the cursor to draw the second point. The measurement is displayed in a pop-up dialog.

Fig. 11.18 Measure Bearing

^{Measure Angle}: You can also measure angles. The cursor becomes cross-shaped. Click to draw the first segment of the angle you wish to measure, then move the cursor to draw the desired angle. The measurement is displayed in a pop-up dialog.

11.1.8. Definição de visualizações adicionais do mapa

It is also possible to open additional map views whose content could diverge from the Layers panel current state. To add a new map view, go to View ► New Map View. A new floating widget, mimicking the main map view’s rendering, is added to QGIS. You can add as many map views as you need. They can be kept floating, placed side by side or stacked on top of each other.

Fig. 11.20 Múltiplas visualizações de mapas com diferentes configurações

No topo de uma tela de mapa adicional, há uma barra de ferramentas com as seguintes capacidades:

• ^{Zoom Full}, ^{Zoom to Selection} and ^{Zoom to Layer(s)} to navigate within the view

• ^{Set View Theme} to select the map theme to display in the map view. If set to (none), the view will follow the Layers panel changes.

• ^{Configurações de visualização} para configura a visualização do mapa:

  • Synchronize view center with main map: syncs the center of the map views without changing the scale. This allows you to have an overview style or magnified map which follows the main canvas center.

  • Synchronize view to selection: same as zoom to selection

  • Escala

  • Rotação

  • guilabel:`Magnificação’

  • Synchronize scale with the main map scale. A Scale factor can then be applied, allowing you to have a view which is e.g. always 2x the scale of the main canvas.

  • Show annotations

  • Mostrar a posição do cursor

  • Show main canvas extent

  • Show labels: allows to hide labels regardless they are set in the displayed layers’ properties

  • Mudar SRC do mapa…

  • Renomear visualização…

11.1.9. Exportando a visualização do mapa

Maps you make can be layout and exported to various formats using the advanced capabilities of the print layout or report. It’s also possible to directly export the current rendering, without a layout. This quick “screenshot” of the map view has some convenient features.

To export the map canvas with the current rendering:

1. Vá para Projeto ► Importar/Exportar

2. Dependendo do seu formato de saída, selecione

   • Export Map to Image…

   • ou Export Map to PDF…

The two tools provide you with a common set of options. In the dialog that opens:

Fig. 11.21 The Save Map as Image dialog

1. Choose the Extent to export: it can be the current view extent (the default), the extent of a layer or a custom extent drawn over the map canvas. Coordinates of the selected area are displayed and manually editable.

2. Enter the Scale of the map or select it from the predefined scales: changing the scale will resize the extent to export (from the center).

3. Defina a Resolução da saída

4. Control the Output width and Output height in pixels of the image: based by default on the current resolution and extent, they can be customized and will resize the map extent (from the center). The size ratio can be locked, which may be particularly convenient when drawing the extent on the canvas.

5. Draw active decorations: in use decorations (barra de escala, título, malha, Rosa dos ventos…) são exportados com o mapa

6. Desenhar anotações para exportar qualquer annotation

7. Append georeference information (embedded or via world file): depending on the output format, a world file of the same name (with extension PNGW for PNG images, JPGW for JPG, …) is saved in the same folder as your image. The PDF format embeds the information in the PDF file.

8. Ao exportar para PDF, mais opções estão disponíveis na caixa de diálogo Salvar mapa como PDF…:

   

   Fig. 11.22 A caixa de diálogo Salvar Mapa como PDF

   • Exportar metadados RDF do documento, como título, autor, data, descrição…

   • Create Geospatial PDF: Generate a georeferenced PDF file. You can:

     • Choose the Geospatial PDF Format

     • Include vector feature information in the Geospatial PDF file: will include all the geometry and attribute information from features visible within the map in the output Geospatial PDF file.

     Nota

     A Geospatial PDF file can also be used as a data source. For more on Geospatial PDF support in QGIS, see https://north-road.com/2019/09/03/qgis-3-10-loves-geospatialpdf/.

   • Rasterize map

   • Simplify geometries to reduce output file size: Geometries will be simplified while exporting the map by removing vertices that are not discernibly different at the export resolution (e.g. if the export resolution is 300 dpi, vertices that are less than 1/600 inch apart will be removed). This can reduce the size and complexity of the export file (very large files can fail to load in other applications).

   • Defina :guilabel: Exportar texto`: controla se os rótulos de texto são exportados como objetos de texto adequados (Sempre exportar textos como objetos de texto) ou apenas como caminhos (Sempre exporta textos como caminhos). Se eles forem exportados como objetos de texto, poderão ser editados em aplicativos externos (por exemplo, Inkscape) como texto normal. MAS o efeito colateral é que a qualidade da renderização diminui E há problemas com a renderização quando determinadas configurações de texto, como buffers, estão em vigor. É por isso que a exportação como caminhos é recomendada.

9. Clique :guilabel:`Salvar’ para selecionar o local, nome e formato do arquivo.

   When exporting to image, it’s also possible to Copy to clipboard the expected result of the above settings and paste the map in another application such as LibreOffice, GIMP…
