I have a problem with saving as GMT in QGIS. There is no option in my QGIS version to save as in GMT. How I can add this option in QGIS?
In the OSGEO4W shell, run ogr2ogr --formats|sort
to see if you have the OGR_GMT
driver (running GDAL 2.x) or GMT
driver (running GDAL 1.x) included.
If yes, you can convert your vector data with ogr2ogr -of OGR_GMT
or -of GMT
.
If you have raster data, run gdalinfo --formats|sort
to look for the GMT
driver, then take gdal_translate -of GMT
.
This same question was asked, and answered, in the GMT forum https://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu/boards/1/topics/8087?r=8088#message-8088
-Regarding the raster matter, it's not advised to convert grids into the old GMT netcdf grid format. Just don't convert it. GMT can recognized all GDAL formats natively (it uses GDAL to read them).
