Hi again,

 

I actually don't have time to look into this now, but just remembered that I have actually done exactly this for Syria around a year ago. Please find Admin1+2+3 as a DHIS2 metadata export enclosed (simplified)

 

Regards,

Knut

Your shapefiles look good. Will have to investigate more closely to understand why you get those weird coordinates in the database. Which version and revision of DHIS2 are you using?

Dear



Thanks a lot I already did the projection and this is my shape files



You can try any one of them

Did you try reprojection? Perhaps you can share your shapefiles?

Hello,

I was able to do everything and import the GML with no errors

But in the database in coordinates filed all values are (-31.4884,3.0E-4) for all org levels

Please the attached txt file that contains a copy of one of the coordinates fields content

Kindly advice

Thanks in advance

If the coordinates are off, you need to reproject the file, as described in the link that Halvdan just sent.

For Syria, I'm guessing your shapefiles are in UTM 37N (see http://www.dmap.co.uk/utmworld.htm)



This corresponds to EPSG:32637 (see http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/wgs-84-utm-zone-37n/ )



In other words, you should install FWTools, open the FWTools console and run the following command:

ogr2ogr -s_srs EPSG:32637 -t_srs EPSG:4326 -f GML filename.gml filename.shp

Hi Nami,



I tried to import the file in question (syr_admin2.gml). Obviously I don't have the required DB for it to successfully import so I created a few of the orgunits named in the GML file. These import fine: reported as updated by the importer as well as their respective DB fields being populated correctly. Please make doubly sure you have the correct names set for the orgunits in the database.



What query did you run to validate you DB contents? Please run the following after import:



select name from organisationunit where featuretype is null or coordinates is null;



Do you see the names of the orgunits in the GML file there? If so please also check the server logs if possible.



Also make sure you have read and followed these steps:

https://www.dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch18s02.html



That being said your coordinate data seems to be completely off as the districts (at least from the few coordinates I sampled) seem to be located in the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean as well as covering incredibly small areas (smaller than we support in DHIS2). This would also cause your polygons to not render properly in GIS, of course. We do limit the import data on import to 4 decimal digits (which should give a maximum accuracy of ~10m).



Regards,

Halvdan

More precisely: make sure there is a NAME property for each featureMember which matches the corresponding orgunit name property (identical match). You're welcome to send med a gml sample which you're having trouble with.

Dear Nami,

Make sure thar Orgunit name is similar to the field name in shape file attribute table.



And the coordinate system of shape file is similar to DHIS2 recommended one.

Hello All,



I was able to covert shape file to GML file



And export it to DHIS2



Result are successful with no error and none is ignored



But when I check data base on organisationunit table I can’t find the coordinates and also featuretype filed is empty ( is should give me Polygon )



Any one faced that problem or any can give a guide line about it



Thanks in advance
