qgis - Scale-dependent displaying of a layer using OpenLayers plugin?


When I am creating a layer in QGIS the layer position/lines does not stay the same when I zoom in closer than, it seems like 1: 1000. I am adding 2 images to explain the problem. The moment I zoom in closer than 1: 1 000 then the original layer does not display correctly anymore.



Please, can you assist in this matter?

OpenLayers plugin has many issues. Instead, try the Quick Map Services plugin because it generally gives better results.


You may download it from the Plugins repository:

or directly on the QGIS Main Page:

If the default services are not enough for you, you may unlock many other services from Web > QuickMapServices > Settings > More Services:

Once you have done this, you will have access to many services like, for example, Google Satellite:

and you will obtain the desired result:
