FAQ

What columns does the CSV need?

title, lat, and lng are required. Optional: type, date, description, media_url. First row is the header.

What if the file is larger than my plan?

DotMap imports as many rows as the plan allows and skips the rest.

Can I import zones and lines?

CSV is for points. Zones and lines go through JSON.
