I've done in this way, but the point is always drawn in the bottom of the map and the existing layer are made small. VectorLayer layPunti = new VectorLayer("LayerPunti"); List<SharpMap.Geometries.Geometry> pti = new List<SharpMap.Geometries.Geometry>(); Point p = Point.FromDMS(40,38,10,17,58,58); System.Drawing.PointF q = map.WorldToImage(p); pti.Add(p); layPunti.DataSource = new GeometryProvider(pti); layPunti.Style.Symbol = new Bitmap("bitmap"); map.Layers.Add(layPunti); map.ZoomToExtents(); I've also try to change the point coordinates, but there aren't any changes Can someone help me?Thanks.

I am also facing same problem I am able to create a shape file with only one point in it. my code: SharpMap.Data.FeatureDataTable dt = new SharpMap.Data.FeatureDataTable(); SharpMap.Data.FeatureDataRow rw = dt.NewRow(); rw.Geometry = new SharpMap.Geometries.Point(100, 100); dt.AddRow(rw); SharpMap.Data.Providers.ShapeFile.Create(Server.MapPath(@"~/App_data"), "test", SharpMap.Data.Providers.ShapeType.Polygon, dt); SharpMap.Data.Providers.ShapeFile shp = new SharpMap.Data.Providers.ShapeFile(Server.MapPath(@"~/App_data/test.shp")); shp.Open(true); shp.Save(dt); shp.Close(); is there there any thing wrong with this ? if i have shape file, is it possible to edit it. Thanks & Regards,

My application shows the point on the map, but I've the point in the bottom and the existing layer that are made very very small and take place in high. I know that my first problem is that my only layer takes its informations from a shapefile with Gauss-Boaga coordinate system, while the point is in WGS84 notation. Thus I think that I've to do something like this: http://www.sharpgis.net/2006/07/07/ApplyingOntheflyTransformationInSharpMap.aspx and then I think that I can show correctly both layers. But stilll now I don't know I can do all of this.
