If you want to reproject it on the fly, you will need to go to Settings -> Project Properties -> Select "on the fly reprojection" and the desired display coordinate system.Now that you have the data properly imported, all you have to do is right click your layer and select "Save As". Besides, like you saw in the question you linked, you need to know the input Coordinate Reference System (CRS)(in your case a projected one), and the CRS of the Lat, Long you want (Geographic), you probably want the WGG84 (the one used by GPSs). Open the attribute table, and click on the pencil symbol at the bottom to enter the edit mode, and then the field calculator icon bottom right.

You can search for a place using its latitude and longitude GPS coordinates. Or is just a text file with coordinates?

UTM zone numbers: Zone numbers designate 6 degree longitudinal strips extending from 80 degrees South latitude to 84 degrees North latitude.

On your computer, open Google Maps. It has to do with coordinate systems. Convert coordinates (x,y) to VML RaphaelJS. Viewed 15k times 3. I've included a link to the complete dataset in the question.Your dataset link just references another question here.

For a 10-meter-grid, units of measure should be decimeter then: Ask Question Asked 4 years, 11 months ago. The place column can be interpreted as search squares where H represents X values between 701 and 800, and N values between 1301 and 1400. If so it is probably in some state plane or UTM grid.

Take a look at The example X, Y and lng/lat I gave should be an exact pair. I'll see if I can figure out source coordinate system.Worked perfectly! Geographic Information Systems You can import the coordinates as a csv, e.g. You can work through the list or use the Filter box to help find the right projection.2) Once it's imported right click on the layer in the Layers panel, and choose "Save as".3) Save it as a shapefile, and change "Layer CRS" to "Selected CRS", then browse the projections to find WGS84 EPSG:4326. As others have said, you need to know the input (source) coordinate system in order to properly transform to lat/long.Copy paste error--fixed dataset link. Enter coordinates to find a place. However I have the GPS coordinates of a few xy coordinates:So my question is how can I calculate all the other points that don't have a latitude and longitude (GPS coordinates)?I quess the lat and lng of the other points will be less specific as there is no Z coordinate however all the points are quite close to each other so I guess the difference will be quite small.The place column represent a location on a map based on a 10x10 meter grid square so (A-B = 10 meter A-C = 20 meter etc.) Keep track of (latitude, longitude) distances (android studio) regarding coversion latitude and longitude valuse convert meters.
