Good. I will give this a try. Thanks Lars. We need to update the docs.

Hi,
I would like to suggest that we finally remove the map source types
“GeoJSON” and “Shapefiles” from the GIS client.

Jason pointed out to me one big issue with the transition from
external GeoJSON files to importing geometries via GML: We lose the
functionality for linking shapes to orgunits in the GUI. I think the
spatial linking was quite cool, though perhaps not very important.
However, different spellings is a major issue. With the current GML
solution, there is no assistance for the user to point out which names
differ, or how to make changes - it has to be done outside of DHIS2,
either in the DBF file before converting or in GML.

Yes there is through the preview function in the import module.

They are not able to offer
most of the functionality that will be implemented in the future and even
maintaining them as they are would hamper the development of new
functionality considerably. However, overlays could still be loaded from
local geojson files.
In other words, I would like to control the geojson input to the thematic
widgets completely by letting our own server produce it. This geojson may
contain data from Geoserver, health surveys etc.
