Importing data
In LumiDB, only users with Editor or Admin roles can import new datasets. This restriction ensures consistent data quality, structure, and access control across the system.
Viewer users
If you’re a Viewer, the import option will be disabled. To make new data available in LumiDB:
Contact your organization’s Editor or Admin.
Provide the dataset along with relevant details such as coordinate system and intended use.
After approval and upload, the dataset will appear in your list.
Editor and Admin users
If you have Editor or Admin access, follow these steps to import a dataset:
Open the Upload data menu.
Enter a name for the new dataset. If you reuse an existing name, it will be overwritten.
Fill in the Attribution field with the data provider’s name.
Specify the correct projection in the Input projection field. Only EPSG:#### formats are currently supported. For other formats, use the API.
To reproject the data, enter the target projection in the Table projection field (also in EPSG:#### format).
Drag and drop files or select them in the Files (.laz) field. Currently, only LAZ format is supported through the viewer.
Click Upload to start the process. This will initiate the file upload sequence.
