[Qgis-user] How to set lat/long boundaries for a map

[Carlos Cerdán]

... Or maybe you can use "clipper", but first you have to "merge" the tiles
in a virtual raster, so you can do:

1. Build a virtual raster (Raster --> Miscel.. --> Virtual Raster )
2. Crop this virtual raster with boundaries that you want (Raster -->
Extract --> Clipper). It produces a TIFF layer

Good luck

Carlos
