Re: [Qgis-user] Google earth historical images

Nope, The images are georeferenced but if they were truly orthorectified, you would not see any building walls, just the roofs when in 2D mode. Some of the distortion has probably been removed but I would not use google earth for anything that need accurate measurements. Also, that would prob

Hi Boaz, Are you using Google earth via “Open Layers plugin”? If so, check and see if the offset still exists with QuickMapServices Plugin (with the contributors pack). Is this in the map view or when you do a print via composer. Some imagery is not well aligned but it varies across the g

I agree. I think having mixed geometries per layer can make things a hell of a lot harder and I would rather have a single geom type per layer. I used to use MapInfo and it can store different geom types in one layer, this makes it hard to style (more of a limitation of MapInfo I admit), hard to w
