Coordinate System Tool QGIS 4 compatibility
QGIS 4 ready Active
Yes — Coordinate System Tool supports QGIS 4 (declared max version 4.99.0).
Adds X/Y and DMS Easting/Northing coordinate fields to any vector layer, plus optional UTM, MGRS, Plus Code, Google Maps link and elevation from a DEM.
About
Adds a Processing algorithm "Coordinate System Tool" (toolbar button, Plugins menu and Processing Toolbox). It writes coordinate attribute fields directly into a vector layer: X and Y in decimal degrees, and Easting_X and Northing_Y in degrees, minutes and seconds. Points, lines and polygons are supported and coordinates are reprojected automatically. The main dialog is unchanged and the extra options are in the collapsed Advanced Parameters section: selected features only, the point used for lines and polygons (centroid, point on surface, start, end, bounding box centre), the coordinate system and decimals of the X/Y fields, UTM zone with easting and northing, MGRS, Plus Code, a Google Maps link, elevation sampled from a DEM, and overwriting existing fields. A second algorithm in the Processing Toolbox saves the result to a new layer and leaves the input untouched.
