[Qgis-user] How to generate a topo map from an excel file

[Alexandre Neto]

Hello Eyal,

You need to convert your excel into a Comma Separate Values (CSV) file. You
can do it in Excel itself using "save as..."

After that, you can use the "Layer > Add Delimited Text Layer" to add your
file in the map as points.

Best regards,

Alexandre Neto
