[Qgis-user] How can I export Vector & Raster layers together to import into mapshaper

[Kirk Schmidt]

Hi Kris;

I am not familiar with MapShaper, however, the vector data and the 
raster layer (Openstreetmap) are fundamentally different animals.  You 
could:

1) generate a geopackage which can store both raster and vector data 
types, but I do not know if you can read such a database with mapshaper?

2) create a map using print composer and export the vector and raster 
components as a georeferenced image or pdf file.  This export a pretty 
map but you would lose all the feature attributes of your vector layer.
