Dear Leandro,

Two steps I do:
1. Create a vrt of all the DEM files (gdalbuildvrt).
2. Extract contour from the VRT file (gdal_contour).

Both tools are available in the Raster menu.
You can also script this and run the process for each DEM file but you
will have separate contour layers that stops at the edge of your DEM
tile.  I want to avoid this which I why I use the VRT file.

A CLI version of this process I posted here:
