Hello friends, welcome to our channel Learn
and Explore .
Today in this video I will show you how to
convert UTM coordinates to longitude latitude data
Okay, earlier in our channel, we have
shown that how to convert UTM coordinates
to lat long coordinate by the help of Global
Mapper, but this time I will show you how
to convert these coordinates how to convert
these UTM coordinates to lat long data by
the help of QGIS software okay.
Earlier we also have shown that how to convert
lat long data to UTM data by the help of QGIS.
Now, today we will do the opposite.
Okay for those who don't know about QGIS software,
you can download it from the web that is freely
available.
Okay, just search on Google qgis.org.
And you can download it from the qgis.org
site.
This is an open source GIS software and it's
freely available to use, okay?
And this is also very important for GIS and
survey engineers.
So now also if you are a survey engineer or
civil engineer, you can go through our channel,
you can find more helpful videos like this.
And before proceeding with this video, I request
you if it helps you then don't forget to leave

Now, I'm going to convert this UTM coordinate
to lat long by QGIS so the first step is arrange
your data like this point Id easting and northing
format, okay.
So then simply copy the data.
Simply copy these data and open notepad in
your computer.
Okay, in the notepad, paste it, and save these
data as.
Okay, I'm just giving a location here.
Okay, now save this data as CSV format.
Okay, now I'm giving a name just data input,
okay?
Input dot CSV, okay?
To save this data as CSV that is comma separated
value format, I'm saving it now.
Close.
Okay, now open QGIS software.
Okay, here I opened you I am using QGIS 3.4
version, you can download it from the website.
Okay.
So I'm going for a new project, go to project
menu and create a new project.
Okay, there in the left side of your layer
panel and browser panel, you will find this
comma symbol and this will show like these
add delimited text layer.
Okay, so I'll go for this, click here and
a dialog box will appear data source manager
and select the file what you have saved from
the Notepad.
Okay, so I'm gonna select this file.
This is the file data input, CSV.
Okay, I'm going to open it Here you can see
there is a geometry definition of the point
coordinates, okay.
Now, here also one sample is here.
Now I have imported the data, but the sample
is like this.
Okay, so I'll just use a regular expression
delimiter 'custom delimiter' Okay, now the
data is separated the number of header lines
to discard is zero.
So now I can see that point Id easting and
northing.
Okay, so I have to omit this row one Okay,
so I'm giving this number of header lines
to discard is 1.
So now I can see that field 1, field 2 and
field 3 are separated from each other.
Okay, now in the X field, okay, in the X field
what I have to select is the easting value,
and we have the easting value is in field
2, so I'll choose field 2 and for the northing
I will choose field 3 Okay.
Now here there is some Geometry CRS system
okay and I have I have told you that my coordinate
system click here okay.
You have to click here this CRS system and
because my coordinate system is in 46 North
UTM format, so, I will choose 46 North you
can search it here UTM 46 you will find that
UTM 46 and WGS 84 remember the datum is WGS
84.
Okay, so I'm going to choose this and Okay,
now changes.
Now I'm gonna add it and then close.
So, the points what I have in my Excel sheet
is imported in the QGIS software Okay.
Now I have successfully imported it.
Now, to convert these data to lat long what
you have to do just in the layer panel, right
click on the imported layer and you can find
the 'export' option.
Then go for the 'save feature as' click here
and save vector layer format will appear here
and in the format you have to go for CSV i.e.
Comma Separated Value.
Yeah, this is Comma Separated Value CSV, okay?
And give an output name and directory of the
output file.
So I'm giving a name here data output, okay?
Output dot CSV.
Now save.
And in the CRS you have to change this system
from UTM to normal Geographic Reference System.
Okay.
So I'm going for here select CRS and you have
to search for only WGS 84.
Okay, WGS space 84.
You can find that this geographic coordinate
system okay there it is WGS 84 the whole geographic
coordinate system okay.
So, just click OK and here in the layer option
in the geometry tab choose as X,Y otherwise
your data will not be exported or else or
Y,X that means the longitude will be first
and thereafter.
So I'm choosing it as X,Y.
Okay, now then, okay.
A message will show you 
that layer exported successfully Okay.
Then simply go to your file where you have
saved this and I will open this data, data
output CSV.
I'm opening it.
See here it is.
We got the longitude and latitude for this
easting and northing values.
Okay?
Now simply copy it and go to your excel sheet.
So, very simple, you can try this by yourself
only.
Okay.
