Can existing weed maps and associated data be imported into WIMS 3?
Unfortunately at this time, we do not yet have a good way to directly import existing data in an Excel spreadsheet into WIMS 3, unless it is already in a WIMS 3 format (such as when you do an Excel Export). In this case, you can either cut-and-paste your data into a WIMS 3-compatible Excel spreadsheet, or you must manually re-enter your weed data. However, if you have weed data that are GIS-compatible (already entered as shapefiles), you can upload those data directly into WIMS 3! To do this, you must manually link your data attribute tables associated with your shapefiles to the appropriate WIMS 3 fields (using the GIS Import function).
