📌 Prerequisites 📌
Before we begin, make sure you have QGIS installed on your computer. You can download it for free from the official QGIS website (link provided above).

📝 Step-by-Step Guide 📝

Launch QGIS: Open QGIS on your computer.

Load/Create Your Shapefile: Use the "Add Vector Layer" tool to load your polygon shapefile into QGIS. Or make a polygon in temporary layer

Enable the Vertex Tool: Click on the "Toggle Editing" button in the toolbar, then select the polygon layer you want to work with.

Select a Polygon: Click on the polygon you want to extract vertex coordinates from. It should now be highlighted.

Access Vertex Coordinates: Click on the "Vertex Tool" in the toolbar. This will allow you to interact with the vertices of your polygon.

Change attributes table: Right-click on the layer and make changes in attributes. Apply expression to update lat long values.

Customize Export Options: In the new layer, right-click and choose "Save As." Select the format as CSV and configure any additional export options you need. During export choose projection system as UTM and geometry as XY.

Save the CSV File: Choose a location to save your CSV file, and click "Save."

Import Data into Excel: Open your CSV file in a spreadsheet software like Microsoft Excel to view and work with the extracted coordinates.

By following these steps, you'll be able to export vertex coordinates from a polygon shapefile using QGIS. This valuable skill can be applied to various GIS and spatial data analysis projects.
