Re: [Dhis2-users] Import of Organisation Units using CSV / working example with Features Type and Coordinates?

 

Hi Stephen,

The one thing that caught my attention was that another column "Closed
Date" should come after "Opening Date". Since you do not have an extra ","
after 1970-01-01, the subsequent columns might be misaligned with the
coordinates actually trying to import into the url column.

The GIS experts out there might comment on the format of the co-ordinates,
but I would expect it to be in the format "[7.495005,9.074908]"

Good luck

Regards

Ant
