[Qgis-user] Atlas Generation

[Bernd Vogelgesang]

 From what I understand is, that you struggle with setting up the
coverage layer, defining your different map areas.

A point grid will not help you much with that, you have to have
rectangles, defining the area for each map.

This has to be done by hand (ouch!), or, maybe someone knows how to do
it, by a geometry generator function, that will take your center points
and generate a rectangle with your desired hight and width automatically.

Another simple option would be, to buffer your points so they become
polygons, and then play around in the atlas settings for the scale
