How to use CSV for Epule

Excel — do not open the file with a double click, otherwise non-Latin text turns into gibberish: Data → Get Data → From Text/CSV, encoding UTF-8, comma as the separator.
QGIS — Layer → Add Layer → Add Delimited Text Layer; choose the WKT column as the geometry, coordinate system EPSG:4326.
Python — pandas.read_csv for the table, and for the geometry shapely.wkt.loads on the WKT column, or geopandas straight away if you need spatial analysis.

FAQ: CSV for Epule

Can I open the CSV map in Excel?

Yes, the file opens in Excel, Google Sheets, or any spreadsheet application.

How to import CSV into PostGIS?

Via ogr2ogr or COPY with ST_GeomFromText().

How do I open the file in Excel without garbled characters?

Through Data → Get Data → From Text/CSV, specifying UTF-8 encoding and a comma as the separator. When opened with a double click, Excel guesses the encoding from its own settings and often gets non-Latin text wrong.

What are the _layer, lat and lon columns?

_layer is the name of the source map layer, it lets the combined table be split back into roads, buildings and the rest. lat and lon are the coordinates of a representative point of the object: for a line and a polygon that is a point on the object itself, handy for quickly marking it on a map.

What coordinate system do the coordinates come in?

In WGS84 (EPSG:4326) — ordinary latitude and longitude, rounded to seven decimal places. That is roughly centimeter precision, excessive for most tasks and sufficient for any.
