QGIS Course 2 Lesson 13 – Creating binary rasters and turning raster data to vector data

It can be useful to create binary rasters or yes, no rasters. Is an area higher than 1500m? Yes – colour this area white, No – color this area black. This doesn’t have to just be used for elevation and could just as easily be used for precipitation values, forestry values etc. We will first create a binary raster and then turn this into vector data that we can use more easily for certain tasks.
