- QGIS is a powerful free and open-source Geographic Information System (GIS). Architects rely on QGIS to visualize, analyze, and interpret spatial data at the scale of cities or territories, which is especially useful for urban design.
In this video, we'll showcase the QuickOSM add-on, a game-changer for architects working with QGIS. QuickOSM streamlines the process of importing OpenStreetMap (OSM) data directly into QGIS, making it easy to create amazing urban maps with buildings or streets.
We'll also explore QGIS' powerful tools for layout.

Thanks for the insight, I think this is unique from other videos I have seen, please do another one. Great to learn something new today. Well done
Thanks! that's encouraging
Great Job, thank you for the tutorial
Good job! Very nice.Thank you for the tutorial.
Thanks for the comment!
thank you sir v helpful & informative..
I love it !!
This is on another level... I love it
Thanks!
Hi, While I know OpenStreetMap data is open and free for commercial use, I'm wondering about the images generated by QGIS . They look fantastic! Are they also free to use commercially? Thanks
Thanks! Good question. QGIS is distributed under the GNU open-source license, so yes it can be used for commercial purposes. In architecture I have never come across any software, even proprietary, where the images, drawings or models produced are not the property of the author. It's more the rights to the GIS data you're using that you need to look at, as when you are using an image produced by someone else in gimp or photoshop ; and here it's OSM. And the QuickOSM add-on doesn't specify any additional rights. To be really sure, you can ask for help here: docs.3liz.org/QuickOSM/
your buildings have the wireframe how in my case it is solid color only, can you please tell me that?
Sure. In Layer Properties > Symbology > Stroke style, you can choose Solid Line or No Pen
I want to find the major road intersection, so is it possible from this tool?
(In between x-y lat and longs?)
Yes, you can set a value directly in the plug-in to download only one type of highway. Otherwise you can download everything and then play with the display properties according to the metadata.
I don't think the plug-in has x-y lat and longs Extent. But eventually I'll draw a polygon with these coordinates, then choose Extent of a layer
@@opensourceforarchitects yes I got it using the geofabrix data
1. selecting the required type of road and making it layer using SQL query
2. Dissolved and converted from multiple to single to overcome the difference if interaction point
3. Then finding the intersection points
4. Converting those interactions to x,y in the table and exporting into CSV
.
Ps. I learned the tool and did this within 6 days as a task in the mnc to extract the data.
Thanks
@@neerajg6976ah sorry I didn't understand that you were looking for the exact points of intersection. Very interesting, thanks for the feedback!
How do you add that ESRI Satellite to the options? I only have the "Mapzen Global Terrain" and "OpenStreetMap" on the XYZ Tiles.
I know nothing about architeture or even what this program does... im just trying to get maps into images so i can play in Table top rpg xD
I realy need to get the roads and houses... so i can have maps to play wallking dead ttrpg xD
Good question! You can find links there : github.com/roblabs/xyz-raster-sources
I show how to add them in a short called : XYZ Tiles : Export a satellite image from any site from QGIS (rigth click on XYZ Tiles > New connection)
Where can we get the Overpass API? is it free?
Are they not available in your settings? Yes, it's free. To better understand : wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Overpass_API
@@opensourceforarchitects thank you.
