Editing existing Point Data in Django

It is possible to edit individual points within an existing point collection in Django. To do so, scroll down to the POINTS section, and this time click on Locations (see Figure 17, below).

Figure 17: In Django, click here to locate a point within a point collection

The page that opens will contain all points for all Wazimap NG profiles. Points can be located in the same way as point collections:

1. If you know the point’s name, simply enter it in the Search bar (top left), and click Search;

2. Filter points by the associated Profile (top right), and locate the desired point in the list; or

3. Filter points by the point collection name.

Once located, click on the point’s name. On the page that opens, it is possible to edit a point’s name (see Figure 18, below), and its attributes (see Figure 19, below). Attributes appear in code format.

Figure 19: In Django, attributes are shown in code

Referring to Figure 16, for each attribute associated with a point, there is a key and a value. A key corresponds to the column headings in the originally uploaded .csv file, and value to the cells in the respective column. For this reason, it is advisable NOT TO EDIT a key, but only a value.
