Artlo in QGIS

Importing to QGIS

The artlo color palettes can be imported into QGIS, using the artlo-qgis.xml stylesheet.

Do this via Settings > Style Manager > Import:

Then select the artlo-qgis.xml file path:

Then Select all > Import.

You should now be able to use the color pallets, which include both continuous and discrete color maps.

Updating the XML file

The artlo-qgis.xml file is generated by the create-qgis-styles.py script, which references the repository's colors.json file to automatically create the color gradients.

This script should typically be re-run any time the colors file is updated.

Adding Third-Party Tile Sources

This script contains instructions for adding a series of XYZ tile servers to your QGIS environment.

Adding Cloud-optimized GeoTIFFS

This post contains instructions for loading COGs in QGIS. I'd like to do something in the future where we develop a script like the third-party tiles example above to automatically load Forest Observatory COGs as default raster sources.
