As much as i understand Raster -> Analysis -> Raster (Interpolation) can provide me with a terrain file out of a shape file with a Z coordinate.
I select the input and output file and a Z field.
It gives me this error:
ERROR 6: GDALDriver::Create() … no create method implemented for this format.
Unable to create target dataset "D:/shp/terrain.dem".
GDALDriver::Create() … no create method implemented for this format.
Tried some other formats (I'm aiming for either .dem, .hgt or .xyz) but got the same error everytime. What am I missing here?
The Vector layer contains X coord, Y coord, Z coord, number and name fields.
