[Qgis-user] Control Layers using Atlas

[Thomas Colley]

Hi Andreas,

That’s exactly what we are trying to do here. I haven’t looked at QGIS Server, that sounds really cool though.

Thanks

Tom

Hi,

That would be nice to have. I also need to create a series of maps for the same map extent but different time stamps. I have 12 different topographic maps from different years and need to create series for different parts of my town. Each raster layer corresponds to a certain year.

I don't know how to do this with QGIS atlas, but I will use QGIS server als a workaround and will feed in the layers with different GetMap or GetPrint requests. We have QGIS server installed anyway - so this would be a good alternative to Atlas.

Hi

Is it possible to use Atlas to print out a number of maps each showing a different layer instead of a different area of interest?

I'm thinking the atlas layer would have the same area of interest polygon duplicated with an attribute that holds the layer name(s) to be displayed.

I'm sure I have seen this discussed/explained somewhere before but now I can't find anything on it, maybe I've just made it up!

Thanks

Tom
