Dear QGIS experts, I am using QGIS V. 1.8.0. and I have a shapefile of Argentina which I need to convert to raster. I looks as a pretty straightforward process, but along the way I hit the following problem:
1) Once the vector file is loaded, I go to Raster >> Conversion >> Rasterize (Vector to raster) 2) I select the output file but the following message pops up: "The output file doesn't exist. You must set up the output size to create it." 3) I hit Ok and then I am left to decide what size do I want for the output file. The default values are Width = 3000 and Height = 3000. So at this point my questions are: a) What are these values for width and height? What do they represent? After conversion, I load the raster and under properties and metadata tab it says that dimensions of raster are X: 3000 Y: 3000 Bands: 1, but I am not sure what this means. Thank you in advance for your help. Luciano _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
