[Qgis-user] Google map images better on iDevice that in Qgis?
Hi, I am trying to use Google ‘satellite view’ to give me a photo image in my maps. The resolution in Qgis (or a PC browser) is much less clear than in the g Google Maps app on an iPhone. Does anyone know how to get the same hi res imaging as I see on my iPad? ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

Are you using the XYZ Tiles for Google Earth image loading? If so, that is also what I have been using and you can set the minimum and maximum zoom level. In order to get exported maps to look OK I set the minimum to 18 and maximum to 19. Based on what I gather from reading other people's suggestions I think adjusting the dpi for the output image changes what tiles are loaded in. But you can force it to use just one zoom level of tiles. I export everything at 300 dpi to use just to make sure things look OK for color printing and PDFs exported from report files. This is the URL I have entered for Google Satellite as an XYZ Connection: http://mt0.google.com/vt/lyrs=s&hl=en&x={x}&y={y}&z={z} Just looking at the other settings now I see there are 2 options for the Tile Resolution: 256x256/96 dpi and 512x512/192 dpi (so I might play with those sometime to see what changes) I still always have to go to Google Earth to compare and see exactly what month and year the tiles are coming from. -Original Message- From: Qgis-user On Behalf Of Steve Research Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2021 9:56 AM To: qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org Subject: [Qgis-user] Google map images better on iDevice that in Qgis?

I am using Web>OpenLayers Plugin>Google Maps to deliver the data and can’t see anything there so set these details. I will follow these links to see what that looks like. > On 16 Apr 2021, at 01:29, Jeff Sonnentag wrote: > > Are you using the XYZ Tiles for Google Earth image loading? > > If so, that is also what I have been using and you can set the minimum and > maximum zoom level.
