QGIS: Add a CSV File

Software: QGIS 3+
Platform: Any
You can add csv files to QGIS if the CS has an X and Y coordinate. This example comes from https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/csv.php
Open QGIS and go to the Data Source Manager Toolbar
data_source_manager
Click on the Open Data Source Managear icon:
data_source_icon
Once that opens, go to Delimted Text. Add your file. In this case I am adding the month summarization of all the earthquakes from the USGS. I know the file is comma delimited and that it has a Longitude (X) and Latitude (Y) field. I also know that the data is in EPSG:4326. You do need to know what projection your data is in and what fields it contains.add_csv_hlOnce it is set up click Add.qgis_dataOnce you reach this point You’ll need to save this csv layer to a file.
