Re: [Dhis2-users] Any open source GIS/map database tools other than DHIS2

 

Hi,

I would highly recommend QGIS, which is the leader among open source GIS -
well documented and lots of tutorials available.

http://www.qgis.org/

We will soon support data export from DHIS2 to other GIS applications like
QGIS (GeoJSON-format), so it's a nice tool to learn :-)
