How to convert several 'point' data to 'line' data?
I am using QGIS V3.4. I have over 1000 data points situated between a start and finish point expressing the Depth of coverage (DOC) of a pipeline. I need to identify the places along the pipeline which have a DOC lower than 0.6m to that which has coverage greater than 0.6m. the figure below identifies this, with grey data points identifying DOC greater than 0.6m and blue data points showing less than 0.6m.
it may look like a line (but a closer up image identifies its just multiple dots close together).
I have tried converting the point to line data by using the points to path tool in the toolbox. This creates however a solid line from the start point to the finish point (as seen below) and doesn't include any other points within its attribute table. Additionally, it looks like it is plotted in a straight line rather than following the placement of the points.
I have also tried looking for the points2one plugin, but this doesn't seem to exist on QGIS v3.4.
I need to be able to create this line but identify it as areas lower than 0.6 DOC and areas greater than DOC, highlighted with different colours. Does anyone know how to do this?

in order to make Points to path tool works properly, you need to identify an order to the points so that the tool can follow the points based on the order you want:
Here is an example:
- Add field with integer type
- Add numbers based on the order you want from the start until the end
- Use point to path tool and order the line based on the field you created in the first step
Here is the output:

Points to pathtool easier to use. You need just to identify theOrder fieldwithout considering theSeparation fieldwhich is not clear to me what this field means.

Ok so using points to path, following your instruction, an example would be to give all the points with a DOC <0.6m and id number e.g 1 - 600, then the remaining points with a DOC > 0.6 and id number 601 - 1000, and then run Points to line twice according to the id number?
