1. Add Vector Layer, 2. Add Raster Layer, 3. Remove Layer(s) Loading a GIS file adds the data into your project as a layer. For our purposes, we care about vector layers and raster layers. There are three ways you can add layers into your project: using the menu, using the keyboard shortcuts, or using the toolbar icons.
1. Add a Vector layer, 2. Add a Raster layer, 3. Remove Layer(s). Import files using the buttons described below. Each layer imported into QGIS contains a data type (points, lines, polygons). Note: a OpenStreetMap (specific button) extension .osm corresponds to three layers (points, lines, polygons)..
The 'Transport Map' layer, when sufficiently zoomed-in, shows routes and route numbers in red. Go to OpenStreetMap and zoom into the general area where the route runs. Switch to the "Transport Map" layer using the 'Layers' sidebar on the right. Now you should see all the transit routes highlighted on the map, with numbers indicating the route ...
QGIS also makes it simple to share and publish geospatial data as maps, online services, or print maps in a variety of file formats, such as shapefiles, GeoTIFFs, and KML files. Screenshot of Print Composer. In order to prepare printed map with QGIS, Print Layout is used. It can be used for adding multiple map views, labels, legends, etc.
The QGis mapcolor files page already has some palettes you can copy, save as .qml, and use.. Save your first color style .qml file Done — section updated (2012/01). Copy-paste the following color code in an empty, plain text document (using something like Notepad or TextEdit), then save it in ./QGis/Mapcolors/ as Wikicarto_2.0.qml (the palette's name + .qml).
Vector overlay is an operation (or class of operations) in a geographic information system (GIS) for integrating two or more vector spatial data sets. Terms such as polygon overlay, map overlay, and topological overlay are often used synonymously, although they are not identical in the range of operations they include.

In creating geographical maps for Wikipedia, it is often useful to have high-quality source material such as blank outline maps, Adobe Photoshop or GIMP-format images with layers, SVG files and so on. If you have such source material that you think may be helpful to other map authors, please feel free to upload it to Wikipedia and list it here.
