I am just wondering what software you guys have been doing to record data for elevation maps. I recall seeing it on here a while ago but I can’t seem to find it.
Anyone have an answer on how to view elevation map data. I have a text file with elevation data and cordinates from aog and would like to visualize it in color on a map. Is there a way to import into qgis?
Same question I had. Someone on telegram helped me. Go this route:
You have txt file, go to Qgis
Then layer → add layer → add delimited text layer
Find that txt file and x y z from list. Press add.
Right click properties → symbology → graduated → choose value z=height
Choose color ramp(turbo) and classes(50) click ok

Thank You! that worked
I’ve followed the directions above using the “contour.txt” file, but the heat map seems to follow direction of travel rather than a contour trend, any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
You need to use the Elevation.txt file.
My elevation.txt file has nothing other than a single line of coordinates, contour was the only one that has a set of multiple coordinates.
Do I need to enable anything to record elevation?
Edit: I just see the setting “Log Elevation” in AOG was not selected, that explains!

Does anyone know if constantly logging elevation has any negative impacts?
