QGIS 3.6.0: Creating equidistant sampling points in a polygon?














0















thanks to this great forum of information I have figured out how to add random points inside polygon boundaries. Although this works well I need a few different things to happen for my application.



What I would like to do is get equidistant points (5 acre square) within multiple polygon boundaries. I can somewhat replicate this result with random point generation but I can't buffer the points from the edge of the polygon which would be nice.



Additionally when I use Vector->Research Tools->Random points in layer bounds , the points are generated with random numbered attributes, meaning there is no relation to the polygon boundary. Because these are used for sampling I assume that will get a bit frustrating when one area is not in order ie. Field 1 has samples 1, 5, 8 but field 2 has 2, 4, 20 etc.



I have tried the regular point generation but it does not clip to each boundary which in a large data-set will take forever to do it with each boundary.



If anyone has any idea how to get regular points within each polygon on a multipart polygon layer I would be extremely grateful! I'm guessing it's probably not easy or professor google would have been much more beneficial during office hours.
