[Qgis-user] Atlas - Map series along linear object

Hi Michaela,

You can use the tool "points along geometry" to create the coverage 
layer. Choose the correct distance based on your 1:500 scale (to show 
more or less overlapping areas). Then create the Atlas using such points 
(that you can hide them in the output). You can play with different 
distances.

I hope it helps,

Jorge
