Mixing them up could cause placement errors. Another post about what I mean: gis.stackexchange.com/questions/11626/… Also make sure the CRS of your Data Frame is defined to the same coordinate system before you import so it will line up with your basemap instead of Projection on the Fly. | |

| Nov 14, 2019 at 18:00 | comment | added | SMiller | To confirm, these are all close to the equator (Ghana?) Are you using the latitude for Y value? What's wrong with the display XY data? | |

| Nov 14, 2019 at 17:16 | comment | added | Keanan Gleason | WGS84. I have tried both specifying this system when displaying XY data and converting to it using the project tool after plotting the data and neither work. | |
| Nov 14, 2019 at 17:01 | comment | added | nmtoken | Which CRS are your original (linestring) coordinates in? | |
| Nov 14, 2019 at 15:01 | comment | added | Vince | Please Edit the question to describe exactly how you went about converting the CRS. | |
