-This page is dedicated to give some experience based tips to achieve a better and faster work. The following topics require a good knowledge of ToolMap and its functioning. +This topic relate all the strategies ​concerning ​the vectorization.

-If you want your final results to be consistent you should allways draw your lines at the same scale. In addition, to get fluid results your drawing scale shall be at least 10 time bigger as the original map. By doing so you will see nice and round lines instead of sharp edged segmented ones.+If you want your final results to be consistent you should allways draw your lines at the same scale.

Now draw the smaller features the same way you would do near the frame (i.e. wider than needed) and directly attribute them.+As you can see on the picture above, there is a lot of intersections totally ignored.
