Cross-section intersections of line and polygon layers with qProf in QGis

A new release of qProf, plugin for QGis, allows to determine the intersections of line and polygon layers, representing for instance faults and geological outcrops, on a vertical cross-section.
These new functionalities complement those already available for projecting geological attitudes and lines on a cross-section.
The resulting data can be saved as shapefiles and csv.

Example of cross-section representing geological polygon layer intersections with a topographic profile.

The plugin can be installed/updated via the plugin manager of QGis. Alternatively it can be downloaded from the QGis plugin repository:
http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/qProf/
or from the Bitbucket repository:
