Using biological records tool to map flora of central Europe #68

In an email from Urban Šilc:

"I'm trying to use the FSC Biological records tool for QGis, but I would like to use grid for mapping flora of Central Europe (MTB). On Youtube I saw that it is possible to use some other grids, but some changes in Phyton console should be made, but link to the scipt.py is no longer available. Is use of some other grids (possibly as shp) possible?"

Hi Urban. It is possible to use the FSC biological records tool for QGIS to generate atlas maps using grids in any standard coordinate system available from QGIS. You have to select 'other' under 'Output CRS' and then select the CRS you want (use the Coordinate Reference System Selector by clicking the small button to the right of the drop-down list). But you can't use the tool to aggregate records to a non-standard grid defined only by a shapefile.
