using a CSV file for visualization

 

Greetings to the DHIS2 community. I wish to consult the group on strategy
and general procedures on how to use a CSV file as a data source for DHIS2
graphs. We have a local electronic medical record in our provincial
hospital that generates a CSV file with each data set representing
numerical values for an indicator. While XML might be a better file format,
we are generating CSV due to the need to have the data be shared to another
system.  I was hoping to utilize DHIS2's graphing capability by feeding the
CSV to the DHIS2 engine. Is this possible and how?

thank you very much.
