Module 2 Exercise 1: CSV data will not load using default import settings #90

Open ioalexei opened 1 month ago

ioalexei commented 1 month ago

The Sierra Leone airports CSV provided in the exercise data won't load using the default Delimited Text Import settings.

The CSV has a row of HXL tags between the header row and the start of the data - this means that QGIS won't automatically detect the lat/long fields.

Either the CSV needs to be updated to remove the HXL tags row or the instructions need to include manually specifying the Lat/Long columns in the Geometry definition section of the dialog box.
