3

I am performing a morphometric analysis of dolines using QGIS 3. The analysis consists of determining the longest axis (the union of the two most distant points of the polygon) and the shortest axis which is the longest line perpendicular to the major axis and it is inside the polygon.

I could determine the major axis by the distance matrix, as they answered me in my previous question, but I have not been able to find the line perpendicular to this one.

  • not sure if I understood your question correctly, but maybe a ready-made solution will solve your question...gis.stackexchange.com/questions/295648/…

  • hello, is exactly what I need to calculate, but I do not understand well how to select the points to make the Delaunay triangulation and generate the line perpendicular to the major axis (line L)

  • I added a fragment of the picture with the image of the map object selection tool...when you select a point, it should be highlighted in yellow...

  • If I understand the method @Cyril recommended, you need points on the boundary of the polygon. You can extract them with the extract vertices tool. If you need more points than just the vertices, you can use one of the densify tools to add more vertices, then extract vertices again.
