Reyalino Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Dear Fellows, I am trying to add point feature data into QGIS (2.18), the shapefile itself has size around 300 Mb. Sadly QGIS said: "XXXX is not valid or recognize data source", I have yet trying to use the new version of QGIS. Anyone had a similar experience?

Lurker Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 I never involve with big shp files in QGIS, if you let say cut it into small pieces and try to load in QGIS, does it work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I cut it into small pieces definitely it works. I successfully added it via PostGIS. Let's see if in the new QGIS it works!! anyway, thanks mate!!

Lurker Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 i will try to load big data on to QGIS, but i use QGIS 3.2 right now, ahahahaha. but judging by your error messages, could it be your shapefiles missing one of their important file?

I am successfully open the file via ArcGIS, but it could be also the shapefile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
