To create a profile tool for surface comparison using QGIS, you can follow these steps to analyze and visualize the elevation profiles of different surfaces.
Step-by-Step Guide for Surface Comparison Using QGIS
1. Prepare Your Data
• Import Point Data:
o Load the pre-survey and post-survey point data into QGIS. Ensure both datasets have the same latitudes and longitudes, differing only in the Z (elevation) values.
• Interpolate Surfaces:
o Use TIN (Triangulated Irregular Network) interpolation to create surfaces from the pre-survey and post-survey points.
Go to Processing go to Toolbox.
Search for TIN interpolation.
Set the input points for pre-survey and post-survey separately, creating two raster layers (one for each survey).
2. Visualize Profiles Using Profile Tool Plugin
• Install Profile Tool Plugin:
o If not already installed, go to Plugins go to Manage and Install Plugins.
o Search for Profile Tool and install it.
• Create Profile Line:
o Use the Add Line Feature tool to draw a line across the area of interest on the map.
Activate the Digitizing toolbar.
Select the Add Line Feature tool and draw the line.
• Generate Elevation Profiles:
o Open the Profile Tool from Plugins go to Profile Tool.
o In the Profile Tool window:
Add both TIN-interpolated raster layers (pre-survey and post-survey) to the tool.
Select the line you drew.
Click Create Profile to visualize the elevation profiles of both surfaces.
• Distinguish Profiles:
o The Profile Tool will display the profiles using different colors for each surface, allowing you to visually compare the pre-survey and post-survey elevations.
3. Direct Point Profile Comparison
• Add Point Layers:
o Load the pre-survey and post-survey point layers directly into the Profile Tool.
o Ensure each layer represents the points with elevation values for pre and post surveys respectively.
• Create and Distinguish Profiles:
o Follow the same steps in the Profile Tool to draw profiles from the point layers.
o Use different colors to distinguish between the pre-survey and post-survey profiles.
