Good Morning!
I had submitted a question about the usage of 3D functions through PYQGIS
(Conversation forwarded below*).
I attempted the usage of the recommended drape function through PYQGIS and have
not had much success.
(Mainly, how would I create the raster layer from a constant slope?)
I assume many of my issues has come from me not knowing much about PYQGIS as I
am relatively new to the environment.
This being the case how would I create a 3D layer in which the z values are
determined by a constant slope?
(How would I even determine the start/end of said slope?)
Any feedback on my current progress is greatly appreciated!
Many Thanks,
Jean Garcia

Sorry for the confusion my request might have created.
I am quite new to QGIS and have had to do a lot of online research with not
much success. (mostly vaguely searching through QGIS Documentation)
The project I am working on is to generate a layer based on given parameters,
one of said parameters being the slope of each layer's Z Values.
(one said layer being stated as a slope of 20 to 1 for a horizontal
distance of 4,000 ft) With said slope I wish to make the 2D layers I have
already generated appear in a 3D view.
I did some research into the drape tool, and while I do believe it could work
my issue is how would I create the raster layer with the Z values?
Since the Z values would depend entirely on the different parameters, it would
not be set Z values.
(What even is the function to create the raster layer?)
My current thinking is to calculate the Z values based on the slope and
starting height of each layer.
How do you think I should go around doing so?
Thanks,
Jean A. Garcia

What exactly are you trying to do? There's many ways this request could be
interpreted.
(Maybe the "drape" tool from the processing toolbox does what you need?)
