Here are 3 suggestions

1. Currently, we cannot access data from multiple days and multiple locations in one table. That is one of the best parts of the old database.

2. Also, when downloading tables of data from the visualization tool, the latitude and longitude only contain 2 decimals. We need as many decimals as possible in order to bring the data into GIS software. Here is an example:

School Name Site Name Latitude Longitude Elevation Measured Value
Abu Bakr As-Siddiq Intermediate School at Al-Madinah Al-Monawarah School (shelter):ATM-01 24.27 39.39 635 29.4
Alexander von Humboldt Gymnasium Radolfzell Mogginger Steig:ATM-02 47.45 8.59 386.8 17.7

3. In the kmz files, the data that is imported into Google Earth needs to include the name of the school, city, state and country.   >>
