[Qgis-user] How to add a base map to my project?

[Ben Hur Pintor]

Hi Maria,

As previously mentioned, you can add basemaps to QGIS by adding them as XYZ
tiles (in the Browser) or using the QuickMapServices plugin (
https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/quick_map_services/),

You can also check this post for more information and instructions to add
basemaps in QGIS: https://bnhr.xyz/2018/10/07/basemaps-in-qgis.html

I hope these help.

All the best,
Ben Hur
