  1. Import the previously created CSV file into QGIS. Open the Data Source Manager and select the Delimited Text section. Here you can input your CSV-file and depending on the File Format you need to define Costum delimiters or you can just select CSV. Always check the Sample Data output at the bottom to see if the import is working as expected. You propably will also need to check the Record and Fields Options and specify if your first record is a header or already data. Lastly, it is important to specify the Geometry Definition, were you can just select No geometry. An example will be shown in Fig. 242.

This low-tech solution enables the offline collection of local knowledge and perceptions with pen and paper maps. Every SketchMap contains a basemap with OpenStreetMap data or satellite imagery, which provides a scale and orientation to the user. Upon uploading pictures of marked maps, the tool automatically digitizes and georeferences the markings to download and integrate into Geographic Information Systems. The Sketch Map Tool combines widely used, analogue mapping with digital analysis, fosters community involvement and the usability of gained results.

      An important issue when creating a map of a region, is that it is impossible to create a representation of a sphere on a 2D plane without distorting the map. The transformation of a 3D object onto a flat surface can be done with the help of a projection. Over the centuries, cartographers and mathematicians have developed a multitude of different methods to project the earth onto a flat surface. However, it is never possible to correctly represent the world on a flat surface (see the video above). Every projection distorts either the length between two points, the angles between two lines (directions), or the size of an area. A projection can only correctly represent one of these three dimensions. This means, that depending on the projection method, your world map will not represent the size, angles, or distances correctly.

      The mercator projection is famous for distorting the size of different countries. You can check

Fig. 25 The Mercator Projection (EPSG:54004)#

Notice how the shape of the circle stays the same. Out of this, we can conclude that the angles stay the same. However, the circles get bigger the further away they are from the equator, and the distance between these circles change the further they they get from the equator. Therefore, we can conclude that the distances and sizes are being distorted with the mercator projection. The strength of the Mercator projection is that it conserves the angles between to lines. We can see this because the circles stay perfectly circular the further they are from the equator.

Fig. 26 The World Geodetic System 1984 (EPSG:4326)#

The WGS 84 is a CRS which consists of an ellipsoid, that resembles the shape of the earth closely. Instead of metrical units of measurements, it uses angular degrees (latitude and longitude). The shape of the Tissot circles is undistorted near the equator, but becomes elongated on the East-West axis the further it gets away from the equator. Unlike the Mercator projection, there is no distortion on the in the North-South direction. As the circles become distorted, we can deduce that the this CRS distorts the angles.

In the figure below, examples A and B are not good colour schemes, as it is difficult to make out the gradation and it does not translate well into black and white.

    Information on road infrastructure for humanitarian aid operations is of great importance and can be easily retrieved from open-source data sources like OpenStreetMap. However, this information is often included in extensive datasets that contain a significant amount of irrelevant details for specific operations or it covers a lot more area than is necessary for the operation. To make working with this data more efficient, it is common practice to clip the data to the area of interest. In addition to clipping, data can often be filtered, as described in the first part of Module 5.
