At the Danish Nature Agency, we have streamlined the QGIS interface to include only essential tools while integrating additional functionalities using locale plugins. This customization ensures the protection of cultural heritage sites, flora, and fauna during forestry operations. Our approach prioritizes usability for non-GIS professionals, enabling intuitive navigation and efficient decision-making in the field.
This presentation will provide a walkthrough of our adapted QGIS interface, highlighting the local plugins that enhance accessibility. I will showcase the implemented solutions that simplify spatial data interaction while ensuring critical environmental and cultural heritage considerations are met. Attendees will gain insights into how open-source GIS can be tailored for real-world applications where ease of use is paramount.
