QGIS Algorithm provided by QGIS (native c++) Delete duplicate geometries (native:deleteduplicategeometries). Finds duplicated geometries in a layer and removes them. This algorithm finds duplicated geometries and removes them. Attributes are not checked, so in case two features have identical geometries but different attributes, only one of them will be added to the result layer.

qgis_deleteduplicategeometries(
  INPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  OUTPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  ...,
  .complete_output = .complete_output_option(),
  .quiet = .quiet_option(),
  .messages = .message_option()
)

Arguments

INPUT

source - Input layer. Path to a vector layer.

OUTPUT

sink - Cleaned. Path for new vector layer.

...

further parameters passed to qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm()

.complete_output

logical specifying if complete out of qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() should be used (TRUE) or first output (most likely the main) should read (FALSE). Default value is TRUE.

.quiet

logical specifying if parameter .quiet for qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() Default value is TRUE.

.messages

logical specifying if messages from qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() should be printed (TRUE) or not (FALSE). Default value is FALSE.
