Automation with QGIS#

As you progress in your GIS career and hone your analysis skills, you will realise that spatial and data analysis can involve a multitude of complex steps. Additionally, you might need to perform an analysis several times for different areas, or because you need to adjust parameters to get the correct result, or because you need to update an outdated analysis. In these cases, you will want to automate the analysis process. This can be achieved with the Graphical Modeler in QGIS. Using models also ensures the reproducibility of your analysis.
