Hi, Easiest method if you are talking about POINT co-ordinates (e.g. health facilities):
1. Create a comma-delimited list with facility name (exactly as in the DHIS), Latitude and Longitude. Coordinates must be ISO standard using datum WGS-84 (the same datum used by all Global Navigation Systems like GPS, and used by all modern maps). 2. For point co-ordinates, DHIS supports six decimals (equivalent to around 10cm precision) - that is the standard number of decimal for point data in most systems. 3. Whether you create the comma-delimited file in Excel, a text editor etc does not matter - use what's convenient for you. Make sure the facility name column is called "NAME" 4. There is no need to generalise point coordinates the same way you might do it for high-precision line or polygon (area) features, so when you are ready with the file either convert it to GML format using the (cumbersome) method described in the DHIS2 manual, OR import it into a GIS package like QGIS. 5. After creating the GML file, import it. Any mis-spelled name will show up during the import as having failed. regards Calle 2016-05-20 15:35 GMT+02:00 papa alioune Sokhna <sokhnap...@gmail.com>: > Hi everybody, > how to captures coordinate in DHIS2. > -- > Papa Alioune SOKHNA > *Informaticien * > Spécialité: développement d'application web, mobile et logiciels surs > Tel: +221 77 442 16 22 > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dhis2-devs > Post to : dhis2-d...@lists.launchpad.net > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dhis2-devs > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp > > -- ******************************************* Calle Hedberg 46D Alma Road, 7700 Rosebank, SOUTH AFRICA Tel/fax (home): +27-21-685-6472 Cell: +27-82-853-5352 Iridium SatPhone: +8816-315-19119 Email: calle.hedb...@gmail.com Skype: calle_hedberg *******************************************
