It is pretty easy to import Epicollect5 data into Google Maps (by using )
Go to and log in with your Google Account.
Click on "+ CREATE A NEW MAP".
On the new map, click on the import button.
You will be asked to pick the latitude and longitude from your data set. Epicollect5 prepends "lat_" and "long_" to latitude and longitude columns respectively.
We are using the EC5 Demo Project for this example so we will pick "lat_3_Where_are_you" as the latitude and "long_3_Where_are_you" as the longitude.
Pick the .csv
file with your downloaded data. (). Wait for the upload to complete.
Now you will be asked to pick a column of your data set to be used as the title for the placemark. Epicollect5 conveniently has a "title" column assigned to each of your entries () therefore that is an obvious choice.
After clicking on "Finish" your map will load. Isn't that awesome?
