I use QGIS 3.6 on Windows and I have been trying to convert raster images into shapefiles. I managed to do that for Digital Terrain Models only, using the conversion --> vectorize tool in the qgis toolbar.

An example of images I want to convert into shapefile can be found in this link https://www.uahirise.org/ESP_040921_1985. How do I achieve that?

    What exactly do you want to achieve by converting an image into a shapefile?

  • My supervisor is requesting these files in shapefile format because I have more than 100 raster HiRISE images that are more than 150 Gb. This size cannot be uploaded in a google drive or dropbox so he requested shapefiles. I told him that I did not manage to do that but he did not give any advice.

    So, you want to share this data? You could convert it to eg. .png and reduce the resolution.
