We worked the problem out. Thanks to all for the input!

Re: [Qgis-user] How do I manually input lat. long. data into cvs format and convert to a vecter point file?
Very strange. The Processing algorithm "Create points layer from table" (under QGIS Vector creation in the Processing Toolbox) should be fairly robust. For decimal degrees, as long as you have two columns in the table with valid numbers (depending on your locale, you may have issues with the decimal separator), you can use those two numbers for the X and the Y axis. Remember to choose the correct CRS (EPSG:4326 - WGS84, lat/lon is a normally a good choice when you are working with decimal degrees). https://docs.qgis.org/testing/en/docs/user_manual/processing_algs/qgis/vectorcreation.html#create-points-layer-from-table Håvard On 10.12.2019 04:21, Donald Meier wrote: > We have been trying to enter lat. long. coordinates in order to > georeference some local survey points.

Hi Don, can you provide more information on your problem like: - what are the errors, what did fail exactly? - can you provide some example data in your choosen format? - how did you import the data? best Stefan --- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Stefan Giese Projektleiter/Consultant *** Where2B Konferenz 2019 12.

We have been trying to enter lat. long. coordinates in order to georeference some local survey points. When we manually enter either degree, minute, second or decimal degree into Excel and convert to a vector point file the conversion fails. Any recommendations?
