Vector miscellaneous

Execute SQL

Runs a simple or complex query with SQL syntax on the source layer. The result of the query will be added as a new layer.

This algorithm is derived from the GDAL ogr2ogr utility .

Export to PostgreSQL (available connections)

Imports vector layers inside a PostgreSqL database on the basis of an available connection. The connection has to be defined properly beforehand. Be aware that the checkboxes ‘Save Username’ and ‘Save Password’ are activated. Then you can use the algorithm.

Vector Information

Creates an information file that lists information about an OGR-supported data source. The output will be shown in a ‘Result’ window and can be written into a HTML-file. The information includes the geometry type, feature count, the spatial extent, the projection information and many more.

This algorithm is derived from the GDAL ogrinfo utility .
