I followed the steps above – thanks.

When I attempted to create a shaded relief, using the default settings, I got the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File “C:/Documents and Settings/me/.qgis/python/plugins\shadedrelief\ShadedReliefDialog.py”, line 83, in accept
myEngine.run()
File “C:/Documents and Settings/me/.qgis/python/plugins\shadedrelief\ShadedReliefEngine.py”, line 81, in run

return _nx.concatenate(map(atleast_3d,tup),2)
MemoryError

How do I address this issue?

Thankyou.

Plugins -> Fetch python plugins

On the ‘Repositories’ tab, click the ‘Add 3rd party repositories’ button and on the ‘Options’ tab check the option ‘Show all plugins except those marked as experimental’. Lastly in the ‘Plugins’ tab, type ‘shade’ into the filter box and check the ‘DEM relief shader’ option, then click the ‘install’ button.

Close the python plugin tool and you should now see the hillshade plugin listed in the plugins menu. If it is still not listed, open ‘Plugins -> manage plugins’ and check that it is enabled there.

Have fun!
