How to get list of coordinates for points in layer using QGIS?
I’ve got a layer in QGIS that is comprised of points. Its attribute table doesn’t have (show) the corresponding x and y coordinates for each point. Is there a way for me to extract a list of coordinates for those points? (ideally into a CSV, but not required)
