[Qgis-user] Interpolation of contour lines

Actually not so much "converting" as it would be "adding" based on existing
10m.

Could choose to merge the '5m buffered lines' afterwards, or not.

Of course if there is a DEM with 5m resolution or better, it would be
more accurate to use the Contour.plugin (need matplotlib installed) or
GRASS.

Just depends on what data is available and use case.
