Since you only talk about x and y, I take for granted that you are talking about points. Do you still have the original .csv file? That would be useful.<br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><span></span><br><span>Then I did something stupid. I deleted some duplicates and changed the X and Y data slightly in three or four data sets, and I created a new row with one new data point and X and Y data.</span><br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I guess you moved some points around in the .shp file, created a new x and y and updated the geometry from the new x and y? Can you use the same steps and update the geometry from the original x and y or did these disappear when you created the shape file? </div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><span></span><br><span>What I did no realize is that the data in X and Y will not be accepted automatically as geo coordinates. </span><br><span></span><br><span>Now I have a map without the full set of points, and I do not know the following:</span><br><span></span><br><span> 1. How do I check quickly, which rows need ne geocoordinates from the X and Y columns?</span><br></div></blockquote><div><br></div>If you have the original csv, you can use that remake the ordinal file, then, in the vector menu, you can substrat (difference I think, I’am not in front of a computer) one vector file from the other. The difference between both files will indicate what changed. You can also regenerate the new x and y fields (like testY and testY) using the field calculator and $x and $y functions. If you don’t have geometries, then those field will come up as empty. </div><div><br></div><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><span></span><br><span> 2. When I figured which data set need updates, how do get the X and Y data into their geocoordinates and get them shown on the map. </span><br><span></span><br><span>Thanks, </span><br><span>Maria</span><br><span></span><br></div></blockquote>I you are still stuck, we could zoom. I am in Montreal time.</div><div>Nicolas <br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>Qgis-user mailing list</span><br><span>Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org</span><br><span>List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user</span><br><span>Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user</span><br></div></blockquote></div></div></body></html>
