Betr: Import of coordinates fails in v2.27(DHIS2)

 

Hi Kristiyan,


Would it be possible that you have one extra column somewhere (maybe a 
double comma) ? 

The way I understood csv-imports, DHIS2 doesn't read the column names in 
your csv but just counts the colums (see list of colums here , Table 
1.17). Coordinates should be in column nr 12, url should be in nr 13. From 
the log, it seems that DHIS2 thinks that you try to import a url. This 
probably means that your coordinates are in column nr 13 or "M", while 
they should be in column nr 12 or "N".

Dear all,
 
My case is regarding the following: DHIS->Import->CSV->Organizational 
Units->Coordinates. I am not sure whether this is a bug or not well 
described in the documentation but import of coordinates does not work 
properly DHIS2 v.2.27.
 
I have tried numerous combinations of arranging the latitude and longitude 
in my .CSV file and none of that worked when import in DHIS2. My feature 
type is “POINT”. This is the "Conflict" I get:
 
~
Main Type           Error Type           Description
OrganisationUnit              String    Property `url` requires a valid 
URL, was given `[36.035858,31.871833]`.
~
Combinations were made with: dots, commas, space, most type of brackets, 
rotating latitude and longitude, etc.
 
 
When I entered coordinates manually in DHIS2 for a single OrgUnit and I 
could successfully view that POINT on a map. This is what I get from a XML 
export of Organization Units regarding manually input of coordinates:
 
<featureType>POINT</featureType>
<coordinates>[36.035858,31.871833]</coordinates>
 
Your help will be very appreciated as I need to enter approximately 2000 
Point coordinates for Organizational Units.
 
Kind Regards,
Kristiyan Panayotov
