Nearest Point Finder QGIS 4 compatibility
Not QGIS 4 ready Active
Not yet — the latest version declares max QGIS version 3.99.0, so it is not offered to QGIS 4 users.
Finds the nearest point(s) across multiple layers to a given set of coordinates using geodesic distance
About
Select one or more point layers, enter target coordinates (latitude/longitude in WGS84), and find the nearest point per layer plus the overall nearest point using geodesic (real-world ellipsoidal) distance. Results are highlighted on the map in distinct colours, with a summary shown in a two-tab results panel.
