Dear all: I am trying to generate a point shapefile from lat/long coordinates obtained from Google Maps' API. They were generated by a WordPress plugin (Gravity Forms Geolocation Add-on) and processed in R to generate a new CSV file with the latitude and longitude in Y and X columns, respectively. I tried to import them to QGIS using "Add delimited text layer..." and EPSG 3857, which I found online to be the EPSG of Google Maps. I now want to convert this layer / shape to UTM in order to integrate it with my other layers.
The points are created correctly, apparently. When I check their coordinates and compare to the ranges of values in Google Maps, they seem ok. [image: Inline images 1] However, if I try to load another shapefile of the same location, it falls very far from the points. Similarly, If I try to load a map from QuickMapServices, it doesn't work: "*QuickMapServices: Failed to download all 1 files. - Google Satellite*". When I save the point shape to UTM (EPSG 31982) to check the coordinates, the values are not coherent with other shapes of the same location: Converted coordinates: [image: Inline images 4] What the coordinates should look like (approximate values): [image: Inline images 5] I also tried inverting the values of lat / long to x and y, to no avail. Any thoughts would be highly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
