georeferencing
Hi all,
I'm new to qgis and im learning by doing with help from AI/Copilot and youtube.
im working on a project were i need to import a pdf to my project so i can work with the shapes in the pdf.
First i added a raster layer and imported the pdf. Then i could georeference it to the right location. But now i learned that this raster layer is basicly an image and i lose all the vector information from the pdf. So, now i converted te pdf to dxf with the help of inkscape and created a new vector layer. Succes!, the pdf is visable and i can select the shapes. BUT now i want to georeference it again and for what i have learned and read is that a vector layer cant be georeferenced.
This is where im stuck. I cant seem to find a workable solution to georeference my project.
With the help of copilot i tried CTRL+P onder 'project' (im using the dutch version and i dont know how its called in english. probably something like new print layout). Here i added a map and the dxf but its compressed or something. i cant get the scaling right. i made sure the CRS is correct but the pdf/dxf seems to lose its quality.
Can anybody help me out and point me in the right direction?

How do I prepare map to print?
Hello,
I am new user of Qgis.
I would like print map of Poland (arround 1/4 of this map in 1:500 000 scale).
I have this map in Qgis but I do not really know what should I do step by step.
I saw some videos on YT but there are just small maps that can be printed from Qgis view. I can not even mark 1/4 map into the print menu.
Also, my print device can print on paper with width 1132 [mm].
Can somebody give me some advice?
Greetings from Poland.

Display Cluster information
G'day team,
I am doing a historic project of medical treatments we have undertaken since 1985 when we formed my department. What I would like to do in the end is display clusters by suburb of each condition. IE, is suburb "A" had 1-10, 11-20, 21-30 etc of a specific condition / disease and colour the suburb accordantly to that grading.
Anyone know of a plugin that would do a batch or is it a stylising equation? Just thinking of how to show the data better. Not a show stopper.

Elevation Map with Cross-Section Profiles — South Sinai Governorate, Egypt
A comprehensive DEM-based elevation analysis of South Sinai Governorate, combining a full hypsometric tint map (ranging from −1 m at sea level up to 2,600 m at the St. Catherine highlands) with four cross-section elevation profiles (A–A1, B–B1, C–C1, D–D1) drawn across different axes of the peninsula.
The profiles reveal the dramatic topographic transitions across the region — from the flat coastal plains along the Gulf of Suez and Gulf of Aqaba, through the steep escarpments of the central mountain belt, to the high plateaus of the interior. The warm red tones in the southeast clearly identify the highest elevation cluster around Gebel Musa and Gebel Katherine.
Built entirely in QGIS using DEM data sourced from OpenTopography, projected in WGS 1984 UTM Zone 36N for accurate metric measurements.

Best way to crop rasters in QGIS?
So essentially, I have two separate DEM files loaded in. However, the top one is noticeably bigger. What would be the best way to crop the sides, so that they line up with the bottom one? I've tried multiple variations of Clip Raster by Extent > Calculate from Layer, but none of those have worked correctly, and doing it by hand always leaves gaps. Anyone have any solutions?

Up to date QGIS tutorial?
Hello, I'm looking into learning more about the remote sensing world and the tools that are used.
I was wondering if anyone has an up to date complete beginner tutorial on QGIS, or recommendations on past ones that are still relevant?
Thank you very much.

Setting default CRS for new projects
Working in Northern Virginia, I am unable to set EPSG:2283 as default for new projects in Settings/Options/Coordinate Reference System. Receive this error message:
>Cannot save ' * Generated CRS (+proj=lcc +lat_1=38.03333333333333 +lat_2=39.2 +lat_0=37.66666666666666 +lon_0=-78.5 +x_0=3499999.9999999998 +y_0=2000000 +ellps=GRS80 +towgs84=0,0,0,0,0,0,0 +units=us-ft +no_defs)' — this Proj string definition is equivalent to EPSG:3686.
Try changing the CRS definition to a WKT format instead.
Is this common? I see no apparent way to change to WKT format. QGIS allows setting the project CRS to 2283 in the Project Properties/CRS window, and works with no problems. Just apparently doesn't like accepting 2283 as the default. Thanks for any suggestions or confirmation that it is what it is.

Missing data when exporting into rhino in a DXF
Hi new to QGIS, I have an issue where when exporting into rhino using a DFX file it skips certain polygons leaving large holes in my map. I'm exporting using save features as the import export tool is seemingly not seeing any of my polygons and creating a file with nothing in it.

Laptop
I‘m about to invest in a laptop to use with CAD and GIS. Does anyone have any recommendations for a laptop that can handle all the requirements I need. I found a gaming laptop but it doesn’t have a dedicated video card. Thanks

How to add legend/logo to qgis2web map
I’m desperately trying to add a logo to the top corner of my map which I’m so close to finishing but nothing I do works. I’m attempting editing the html but every time I add the image a massive white box appears across the top of the screen like a box. If someone could help that would be amazing
I have attached an image of what happening, I need the white box to be gone (the image is transparent so I’m unsure as to why it appears at all) finally when I move the map the image and the white box both dissapear

Attrribute table suddenly empty after editing and saving, but objects are still visible.
Version: 3.40.14-Bratislava on Windows 11. Project file saved on cloud.
For some time now, I've been having a major problem where, after editing and saving shapes or the attributetable, the attribute table either shows only NULL values or becomes completely empty while it says that the objects are still in the table. The features are usually still there (see image), tbut sometimes they disappear as well. I always make sure to save after editing and switch out of edit mode. Is this a application error or maybe a bug someone have experienced before?

Thesis Objectives
I hope this is the right community to ask, I can't really find anything on here related to my study. Just wanted to know if these objectives are okay/attainable/feasible and maybe even easy to learn with resources available online.
Describe and characterize the landscape and physical attributes of Mt. Naguiling Watershed.
Map and analyze the current Land Use-Land Cover (LULC) of the watershed to determine the total percentage of forest cover.
Determine the relationship between Mt. Naguiling Watershed’s morphometric qualities and the consistency of water supply for rice productivity in Jaybanga, especially during the dry season.
It's heavily QGIS based and QGIS isn't my strong suit, let's just say it's a bit complicated to explain why I had no choice but choose this study, however I learn fast so it shouldn't be an issue, and with AI around results will not be that hard to interpret. Just need to know as a beginner what measures I should be taking in QGIS to achieve all this or any advice at all would be appreciated:)
This study is based in the Philippines.
