Paola, KMLs have an official 'timestamp' and beginning and ending time. QGIS 3 properly imports those. KMLs also support a very free form way of visually displaying data that is sometimes very difficult to interpret. Based on your question, your KML is probably doing something that is outside the

Hi - I am using QGIS3 and trying to import KML files (wildlife data, GPS points) with attribute data (date, time) in to a project, so as to select and clip certain data out. Once imported to GQIS all the date and time info disappears. Any tips on how to avoid this? thanks! __

Is it possible to import a KML file generated by Google Earth into a QGIS project that has some CRS other than 900913 (Google Mercator EPSG: 900913) defined, and have that KML appear as a new layer correctly positioned vis-a-vis others in the project? I have my QGIS Preferences configured to "e
