In this chapter, we covered how to create new layers from scratch. We used the tools to create and edit feature geometries in different ways. Then, we went into editing feature attributes of single features, feature selections, and whole layers. Next, we reprojected both vector and raster layers and also learned how to convert between different file formats. Finally, we finished this chapter on layer creation and editing by covering tabular data, how it can be loaded into QGIS, and how to join it to our spatial data.
In the following chapter, we will put our data to good use and learn how to perform different kinds of spatial analysis on raster and vector data.
