| Mar 10, 2020 at 6:58 | comment | added | Michael Stimson | There is a QGIS document docs.qgis.org/2.8/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/… for vector and docs.qgis.org/2.8/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_raster/… for raster that cover the basics of vector and raster data. For a beginner a 'cheat sheet' is a good idea to start with but you will find most data presents in a fairly narrow selection of the available formats; Shapefiles are very common as are GeoTIFF and JP2 but some will find GML or GeoJSON as normal where others may not - many possible formats I've never encountered. | |

This doesn't seem to be entirely true. I went to the QGIS browser, and it shows the .tab file, but when I add that layer, QGIS says it is not a valid format! Also it shows each .jp2 file twice. Once as a raster, and once as a vector. If I try to add the vector version, it says not valid. The raster layer works though.
