dear community<br>
<br>
I'm gonna report a problem that I observed frequently. I have polygon<br>
shapefile, downloaded from the net, representing the path of a<br>
satellite. I think this shapefile derive from a .kml, but I'm not sure.<br>
This layer is WGS84 EPSG:4326.<br>
<br>
I have also a layer in UTM 32N (EPSG:32632).<br>
<br>
If I work with the on the fly projection I can see both the layers<br>
correctly reprojected and positioned in EPSG 32632 (this must be the<br>
reference system of my project), but once I deflag the on fly projection<br>
and I try to reproject the WGS84 layer (Vector>Define projection) in UTM<br>
32 N, the polygons are absolutely not overlayed.<br>
<br>
If I start again the on the fly projectio I don't get any overlay, the<br>
only way to reach a good positioning is to reproject again the first<br>
layer in the native reference system (WGS84) and using the on the fly<br>
reprojection.<br>
<br>
My impression is thar QGIS doesn't correctly reproject the shapefiles<br>
coming from .kml, am I wrong?<br>
<br>
Thank you very much<br>
<br>
<br>

Hi Giacomo,<br>
<br>
It may be possible that your shapefile does not have a spatial index (depends on tool used to convert from kml).<br>
<br>
Try opening your original file in a new project projected in WGS84 EPSG:4326, then reproject it to EPSG 32632 giving it a new name.<br>
<br>
Open your original project in UTM 32N (EPSG:32632) and open the newly created satellite file.<br>
<br>
Does this work?<br>
<br>
