[Qgis-user] QGIS - help: filled contour lines from raster layer data

[Nicolas Cadieux]

Hi,

I am not sure why you get that error but the r.contour.level will give you what you need if you select "area" in the v.out.org parameter.  That will give you polygons that you can color the fill area. If you have installed the latest version of Qgis, your processing toolbox could be a mix of old and new tools.  If this is the case, I would do complete reinstall deleting all the old plugins.

What ist he problem here? Does it have to do with the new version Grass Gis 7?

Now we want to extract the contour lines and to have a color fill between those contour lines. How would you do this – is there an easy solution, which differs from the numerous tutorials on the web, which seem to be a lot more complicated than what we actually remember to have done?
