Re: [Qgis-user] Selecting Objects from an ESRI file based geodatabase

[Tyler Veinot]

You could add the layers you need and use the convert to offline project
button to convert the layers to sqlite. I have done this to our file
geodatabases but it doesn't work for Z and ZM features, some field data
types will throw errors that may or may not halt the export. Then you might
be able to use some SQL filters in the database to limit or group certain
layers.

Re: [Qgis-user] Selecting Objects from an ESRI file based geodatabase

[armin . konrad]

Thank you for your answers! It worked as you suggested. I filtered the 
gdb database to the objects that I needed and saved them as shape.file. 
Afterwards I could delete the database in the project and work with the 
shape file instead with reasonable speed.

Thanks again
Armin

Does that help?.

Hi,

mayor .gdbtable-file has a size of about 3.5 GB and contains about 18.000
objects (polygons). It is rather awkward to work with such a database to say

I wonder, is there a way to select certain objects by filtering and
convert them selectively to a shape file or to copy them to a new database?

Thanks you for suggestions.

The only way I am aware of, is to load the .gdb file, select the
layer(s) you want and then use the save-as option to save out as a
shapefile.

You can right click a layer and go to filter and enter an expression to
filter out unwanted objects. From there save as will save to a shapefile,
among other other formats, that will only be the items defined by the
filter. You can also use a select expression and in the save as dialog
select save only selected features
Does that help?.

[Qgis-user] Selecting Objects from an ESRI file based geodatabase

[Armin Konrad]

Hi,

I have opend an ESRI .gdb database (directory) in an qgis project. The mayor .gdbtable-file has a size of about 3.5 GB and contains about 18.000 objects (polygons). It is rather awkward to work with such a database to say the least since I need only 2 to 3 objects at a time.
I wonder, is there a way to select certain objects by filtering and convert them selectively to a shape file or to copy them to a new database?

 

Thanks you for suggestions.

Armin
