📌 Prerequisites 📌
Before we begin, make sure you have QGIS installed on your computer. You can download it for free from the official QGIS website (link provided above).
📝 Step-by-Step Guide 📝
Launch QGIS: Open QGIS on your computer.
Load/Create Your Shapefile: Use the "Add Vector Layer" tool to load your polygon shapefile into QGIS. Or make a polygon in temporary layer
Enable the Vertex Tool: Click on the "Toggle Editing" button in the toolbar, then select the polygon layer you want to work with.
Select a Polygon: Click on the polygon you want to extract vertex coordinates from. It should now be highlighted.
Access Vertex Coordinates: Click on the "Vertex Tool" in the toolbar. This will allow you to interact with the vertices of your polygon.
Change attributes table: Right-click on the layer and make changes in attributes. Apply expression to update lat long values.
Customize Export Options: In the new layer, right-click and choose "Save As." Select the format as CSV and configure any additional export options you need. During export choose projection system as UTM and geometry as XY.
Save the CSV File: Choose a location to save your CSV file, and click "Save."
Import Data into Excel: Open your CSV file in a spreadsheet software like Microsoft Excel to view and work with the extracted coordinates.
By following these steps, you'll be able to export vertex coordinates from a polygon shapefile using QGIS. This valuable skill can be applied to various GIS and spatial data analysis projects.

Sir एक bar or village map ko scaling kaise करते हैं auto cad me.. Or fir use A4 size paper me print karne par koi change nhi हो

[@muhammadammar5941]

can you do the exact opposite of this please ?

[@LearnExplore]

Yes

[@muhammadammar5941]

@@LearnExplore how?

[@LearnExplore]

Import points using text delimitted layer, then draw lines either manually or by processing toolbox using points to line feature. Then convert the line feature to a polygon using processing toolbox

[@muhammadammar5941]

@@LearnExplore i did that but now i want to paste these points on street map to a specific location

[@muhammadammar5941]

like in your first step you extracted those points from google map. i want to do the opposite
