A typical spatial analysis involves a series of GIS operations, with the output of one operation as the input for the next one, until the final result is generated. Using the graphical modeler, you can combine these individual steps into a single process. The interface to the graphical modeler allows you to visually draw inputs, GIS algorithms, and outputs. The entire analysis is then ready to run as a custom tool within the Processing Toolbox. The custom tool will look like other tools in the Processing Toolbox. After assigning the inputs and naming the outputs, the entire analysis will run in a single step.
A major benefit of this approach is that the completed analytical workflow can be modified and rerun. This allows stakeholders to understand how changing thresholds or input values affects the results of an analysis. Let's assume that...
