Hi All, For work, we use a Google Sheets spreadsheet that is accessible to various people. The spreadsheet is mostly text attribute data with spatial information stored in WKT fields (points and polylines). When it comes time to make a map, I download a csv and import into QGIS. I realized that the csv import process will only allow one geometry type during the import and discard the others. This results in having to repeat the import process for each geometry type in the csv.
Is there some better way to do this, ideally that would allow text and spatial data of various geometry types to be stored and read all at once? Is there a way to get around the seemingly archaic separation of vector layers based on geometry types? Is there a native QGIS format that can handle this and import from a spreadsheet? Or, ideally, is there some sort of magical connector between Google Sheets and QGIS, so a change online in Sheets would update the map in QGIS? cheers, kilolima -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/How-to-store-spatial-information-of-various-geometry-types-point-line-polygon-in-one-place-tp5159178.html Sent from the Quantum GIS - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
