hi thank you for the answer,<br><br>yes i'm trying to add a layer with the add x/y-file function. there is no problem about this if I add it in geographic decimal (xx.xxxx) and choose projection EPSG:4326, but i'm wondering if you can add this layer when the coordinartes are in xx°xx'xx'' form and not in decimal form. Now I transformed my xx°xx'xx'' data via <a href="http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/calculators#coordinates">http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/calculators#coordinates</a> to decimal form. but if I will have more data in xx°xx'xx'' coordinates in future, will it be possible to import them directly into gvSIG (via the add x/y file (dbf) function) ? the problem is, that gvSIG doesn't read that xx°xx'xx'' form and puts all points to 0°0'0'' in the active window. so i'm wondering if this results out of a wrong projection I chose for the project. <br>
<br>thanks again,<br><br>davk<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/9/15 Jorge Gaspar Sanz Salinas <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jsanz@prodevelop.es">jsanz@prodevelop.es</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

You are trying to add a event layer based on geographic coordinates,<br>
aren't you?<br>
<br>
Well I think you should parse your coordinates to convert them from<br>
dºm's'' to decimal degrees (with a little effor this can be done with<br>
the field calculator creating serveral fields and doing some replace and<br>
simple calculations).<br>
<br>
Besides the numbers issue, selecting the correct datum is up to you, if<br>
you don't now it, try to use EPSG:4326.<br>
<br>
Hope it helps, good luck!<br>
