[Qgis-user] combining fragmented forests

[Frank Broniewski]

Hi Reiko,

another idea might be to use a buffer to stitch polygons together. Use a 
small buffer value and choose to dissolve the resulting polygons. That 
method does not however preserve meaningful attribute values.

Let's know how your progress goes,
Frank
