In this chapter, we looked at the steps to style vector and raster data in QGIS. We first covered how to pick colors using the new color picker. Then, we covered how to create and manage color ramps using the style manager. Next, we reviewed the different ways to style singleband and multiband rasters, create a raster composite, as well as how to overlay rasters using renderers. Vector styling was reviewed next and we covered the six different style types. We also looked at how to use vector renderers for layer overlays. Next, we toured the three diagram types that can be visualized on top of vector datasets. We finished this chapter with instructions on how to save and load styles for use in other QGIS projects.
In the next chapter, we will move from viewing data to preparing data for processing. Preparation topics will range from spatial and aspatial queries and converted...
