Spreadsheets

Upload a CSV, TSV, Excel or OpenDocument file (.csv, .tsv, .xlsx, .xlsm, .xlsb, .xls, .ods), or link to a public Google Sheet. Each row becomes a feature, and its other columns become the feature's attributes.

How a row is placed

GISOwl uses the first of these the table has:

1. Origin and destination: lat0, lng0, lat1, lng1 columns draw one line per row, from origin to destination.
2. Coordinates: a latitude column (lat, latitude or y) and a longitude column (lng, lon, long, longitude or x) place a point per row.
3. WKT: a wkt, geometry, geom, the_geom or wkt_geom column can hold any geometry: points, lines or polygons.
4. GeoJSON: a geojson column holding a GeoJSON geometry or feature.
5. Address: an address column (or full_address, street_address, address1, addr), with city, state or region, postcode or zip, and country beside it. GISOwl geocodes each row against its own copy of OpenStreetMap and places a point. A file can geocode up to 20,000 rows.

Column names are matched without regard to case, so Latitude and LAT work too.
