MIS 2021.14 Release Note

New Features

• This release continues the launch of new GIS features:

  • Administrators are now able to upload topological data to the tool.

  • When adding a geo point to a Geo question you now also have the option to directly paste coordinates to the form instead of opening the map and either dropping a pin or searching for a geo point / address.

• In addition to displaying an overview of all your indicators on a global dashboard, you can now also display individual indicators as their own dashboard cards showing the current and target values with a visualization of the progress.

• You can add comments to data submissions. An example use case for the feature is the approval workflow for data submissions: when a reviewer rejects a submission, they can leave a comment to the data reporter explaining what needs to be updated about the data entry.

• It is possible now to create calculations for selection questions to, for example, determine a status of an activity based on the responses.

Improvements

• We also enhanced a few of the already released GIS features:

  • A new ‘Hybrid’ basemap gives you a third visual option, in addition to the existing ‘Map’ and ‘Satellite’ views, to display your data on maps.

  • The map legend was boosted with some new configuration options, including optional titles and non-numerical thresholds.

  • Data form editors can now manage all the Geo question attributes in the template editor user interface instead of using the JSON editor.

Fixes

• Administrative area names with special characters do not cause problems anymore for map filtering.
