I have a .tif which I want to have polygonized. I take the Raster/Conversion/Raster to Polygon. QGIS 3.12 starts the process but never ends (once I waited half an hour). I maybe don't see a mistake. white has the value 1 and black the value 0

White has the value 1 and black the value 0. I also tried with ArcMap where it is the same: The process starts but it never ends.

    Polygonizing rasters are slow. Half an hour is not a long time, let it execute over night

    If you want to speed this up and have the technical skills to do so, save the raster to postgis and do it there postgis.net/docs/RT_ST_DumpAsPolygons.html

  • 1. steps: There is not much I can do. I choose the tool Raster/Conversion/Raster To Polygon. There I just choose the proper layer, choose the output filename and say 'start'
