Add your data

Finda can only read data formatted as geojson. If your data is on some other format (excel file, csv) you will need to convert it before using Finda.

To edit the data in Finda open the data.geojson file.

The geojson specification requires that objcts be stored in a FeatureCollection. An empty FeatureCollection looks like this:

{
  "type": "FeatureCollection",
  "features": []
}

Paste.

Inside the brackets add your own list of datapoints. Datapoints in geojson should look like this:

{
  "type": "Feature",
  "geometry": {
    "type": "Point",
    "coordinates": [-72.6411923, 42.3250492]
  },
  "properties": {
    "property1": ["apples", "oranges"],
    "property2": "no dogs allowed",
    "property3": 14
  }
}

Commit your changes!
