1D edits using SQL
Learn how to edit your 1D schematisation using SQL. 3Di offers a smooth 1D editing experience using the Modeller Interface. But there are occasions where you’d like to bulk edit you schematisation. This you can do in QGIS, but for more tech-savvy modellers SQL is a good approach.
Thanks to the fully open GIS setup the underlying database and schema are fully described exposing it for use in SQL. In this training you’ll learn practical examples on how to batch edit your schematisations with the help of SQL.
