><br class="">

><br class="">

> - ability to be used in batch modes<br class="">
> - always available in all QGIS installs (as opposed to the always<br class="">
> installed, but disabled-by-default spatial query plugin)<br class="">
> - unit tests<br class="">
> - non-blocking execution<br class="">
> - more optimised code<br class="">
> - features can be extracted to a new layer regardless of input layer<br class="">

> other formats)<br class="">
><br class="">
> There's one feature which is available in the spatial query plugin<br class="">

><br class="">
