Dec 6, 2017 at 14:26 comment added Mahendra Garg I did the same process again with fresh file, still not getting smaller equal size polygon, can you suggest me some other way to divide polygon in specified size?
Dec 6, 2017 at 14:05 comment added ahmadhanb I am afraid the issue is related to the projection. Start fresh from the original shapefile with WGS 84 and reproject using save as especially after you disabled the OTF. Then follow the steps in the previous comment.
Dec 6, 2017 at 14:01 comment added Mahendra Garg I followed the same instruction as mentioned above still I am getting the same polygon with no values in attribute table, I don't know what's wrong I am doing :(
Dec 6, 2017 at 13:41 comment added ahmadhanb First disable the OTF from Project -> Project Properties -> CRS -> uncheck Enable 'On the Fly' CRS Tansfomation. Load the projected UTM polygon into a new QGIS Project. Then use Polygon Divider as described in the answer.
Dec 6, 2017 at 13:35 comment added Mahendra Garg after setting UTM projection WGS 84 datum: 33N then I am trying to divide polygon then new polygon created with the same size and it's default CRS WSG 84 changes, how it get changed?
Dec 6, 2017 at 11:08 comment added ahmadhanb Nigeria has 3 zones in UTM projection WGS 84 datum: Zone 31N, 32N, and 33N. You need to choose the correct zone among the 3 zones and reporoject your data from Geographic WGS 84 to UTM Zone (31N OR 32N OR 33N) and (disable OTF). Right-click the layer in the table of content and go Save as and select the correct Zone in UTM projection WGS 84 datum.
Dec 6, 2017 at 10:59 comment added Mahendra Garg Can you suggest me which CRS I should use, currently I've selected WGS 84 (OTF enabled). When I am using the following command "ogrinfo -so Nigeria_LGA.shp Nigeria_LGA" I am getting following result INFO: Open of Nigeria_LGA.shp' using driver ESRI Shapefile' successful. Layer name: Nigeria_LGA Geometry: Polygon Feature Count: 774 Extent: (2.668534, 4.273007) - (14.678816, 13.894419) Layer SRS WKT: GEOGCS["GCS_WGS_1984", DATUM["WGS_1984", SPHEROID["WGS_84",6378137.0,298.257223563]], PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0], UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]]
