# Uploading Point Collections
Data is uploaded to Wazimap NG using Django (which can be accessed [here](https://production.wazimap-ng.openup.org.za/admin/login/?next=/admin/)). Once you are logged in, scroll down to the **`POINTS`** section, and click on the **`+Add`** button next to **`Collections`** (see Figure 5, below).

On the following page, do the following (refer to Figure 6, below):
1. Select (from the dropdown list) the **`Profile`** which should be associated with your point collection;
2. Give your point collection a **`Name`**;
3. Select the appropriate **`Permission type`** (Public or Private);
4. Import your point collection by clicking **`Choose file`** and selecting the .csv file you exported earlier;
5. Add the **`Source`** information; and
6. Scroll down and click **`Save`** in the bottom right hand corner.

## Public & Private Datasets
Datasets can be set as **`Public`** or **`Private`** under **`Permission type`**. Public datasets, and variables derived from them, can be used on any profile in Wazimap NG. This enables reuse of valuable datasets without the need for each use case to source, and upload the data again. Private datasets and variables derived from them can only be used on the profile they are assigned to under **`Profile`**.
\---
Your point collection (datatset) should now be added to Django. To display your point collection on Wazimap NG, you must first create a **`Theme`**, and then a **`Profile Collection`** (from your point collection), which will be nested under your Theme. Themes and Profile Collections are vital in displaying data using the Point Mapper on Wazimap NG.
