Overview

qdcontour2 is an updated QueryData contouring and map rendering tool, succeeding smartmet-qdcontour. It reads a control file and generates weather map images by rendering contours from QueryData and map features from shapefiles.

Note: For server-side rendering, the WMS plugin is the preferred approach.

Features

• Contour rendering from QueryData (isolines, isobands)
• Shapefile-based map background rendering
• Weather symbol rendering
• Configurable fonts, colors, and styling
• Raster image output (PNG, JPEG)

Documentation

Detailed configuration reference is available in docs/qdcontour.txt.
