Thank you for a great tutorial. I should mention a GPX file, depending on which device or source it comes from can either be a TRACK or a ROUTE. Routes do not contain any time information, just pure coordinates. Routes will not show up in Google Earth, eventhough it will focus on the correct coordinates. If you are exporting from a GPS smartwatch app or some other device, make sure you export GPX as TRACK (or sometimes called "workout"), not "route".
Following your tutorial, I am trying to upload csv file with latitude and longitude into Google Earth Pro. But whenever I upload the csv file Google Earth Pro does not recognize the columns separately, it combines all the columns as one column. At the step select latitude and longitude field, it shows all the tittles as one. I have relooked at the csv file, separated it well with the headings under each column but still. Please can you help me upload this file?
Thanks for taking the time to make the video. Is there a way to select a point every x amount of distance in a given area instead of manually drawing them?
thank you! this was very helpful. in case it is helpful for others, i first tried coordinate system IRENET95. however, when i ran the xy table to point tool, the dem showed up in my contents pane but nothing shows up on the map. i switched to default WGS_1984 and all went smoothly.
