Basic Principle

Vector data is used to

represent real world features
Vector in a GIS.
Ctrl + Shift + V

Ex: .TAB, .MIF, .SHP

CRS Type

Raster data are a grid of EPSG:4326 - WGS 84

regularly sized pixels.
Raster Ex: Google Map/Earth, DEM
Ctrl + Shift + R
Unit: Degree
(Contour), .TIF
File EPSG:3857 - WGS 84 /
A delimited text file is an Pseudo-Mercator
Type attribute table with each
column separated by a
Text Ctrl + Shift + T Unit: Meters
defined character and each
row separated by a line break
Ex: .CSV, .TXT
A coordinate reference system (CRS) then
A spreadsheet consists of a defines, with the help of coordinates, how the
Excel table of cells arranged into two-dimensional, projected map in your GIS is
rows and columns and No Shortcut related to real places on the earth. The decision
referred to by the X and Y as to which map projection and coordinate
locations. reference system to use, depends on the
regional extent of the area you want to work in,
Ex: .XLS, .XLSX on the analysis you want to do and often on
the availability of data.
