Seilaplan Tutorial: DTM download from swisstopo website

In order to use the QGIS plugin ‘Seilaplan’ for digital cable line planning, a digital terrain model (DTM) is required. As an alternative to using the ‘Swiss Geo Downloader’ plugin, the DTM can be obtained directly from Swisstopo. In this tutorial we explain step by step how to download the necessary DTM from the Swisstopo Website, and how to use it in QGIS for the digital planning of a cable line using the plugin ‘Seilaplan’. Please note that the tutorial language is German!

Für die Verwendung des QGIS Plugins Seilaplan zur digitalen Seillinienplanung ist ein digitales Höhenmodell (DHM) nötig. Als Alternative zum Swiss Geo Downloader erklären wir in diesem Tutorial Schritt für Schritt, wie man das nötige Höhenmodell von der Swisstopo Webseite herunterladen und in QGIS zur Seillinienplanung verwenden kann.
