Re: [Dhis2-users] Org unit lists

 

Thank you John for sharing that metabase2 app. The UX is great! I assume
its getting the repository data from the github repo. What would be nice is
to "preview the system" with the imported metadata and you could rollback
to your metadata. But the dhis2-live is a better way to deploy "previewing
of system" with a different metadata.

Alvin, thank you for sharing that there is interest in AeHIN network
countries... I had assumed with so many implementations of DHIS2 across the
globe, there would be "real" metadata, than whats in the demo or training
databases. Would be great if repository of medicines is also available, in
something like the NDF
<https://www.nlm.nih.gov/research/umls/sourcereleasedocs/current/NDFRT/index.html>
at least for a region. Even in DHIS2 metadata format would be a good place
to be.
