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

 

While we don't support data extraction using GeoJson yet, we do support
export of points/polygon at /api/organisationUnits.geojson?level=2&level=3
(and have had it since 2.20 or something)

(couldn't load up dhis2.org now for some reason, but there should be docs
for it)
