[Qgis-user] Where can I get a shapefile made from a table of co-ordinates to map a bird monitoring project ?

[Stefan Kiefer]

Hi Stephen,
you can import the textfile directly to QGis (layer-->add layer-->import
textfile). Afterwards you can save the layer as shapefile (layer-->save as)
(Shapefile is default).
The file should be like:
 
x,y
1,2
2,3
3,4
 
if you have other column names you have to set the correct column for
coordinates in the import dialog!
 
cheers
 
Stefan
