This plugin connects to cloud-based GeoParquet data and downloads the portion in the current viewport.
The plugin comes with pre-configured sources for <a href="https://overturemaps.org/">Overture
Maps</a>, <a href="https://source.coop/">Source Cooperative</a>, and you can enter the location
of any online GeoParquet file or partition. It works best with
the bbox struct from GeoParquet 1.1, but any GeoParquet file
will work. You can save the output data as GeoParquet,
GeoPackage, DuckDB, FlatGeobuf, or GeoJSON.
The plugin does not require that your QGIS supports
GeoParquet, as you can download data as GeoPackage, but
GeoParquet generally works better (faster and better nested
data). Most Windows installations come with it, and for Mac
and Linux you can install via conda. For information on
installing Geoparquet support see <a href="https://github.com/cholmes/qgis_plugin_gpq_downloader/wiki/Installing-GeoParquet-Support-in-QGIS">this wiki page</a>.
The plugin depends on DuckDB, which should be installed
automatically when you install the plugin. If you have issues
with DuckDB installing please file an issue on the <a href="https://github.com/cholmes/qgis_plugin_gpq_downloader/issues">GitHub issue tracker</a>.
