# cannot open csv in Collect Earth

Asked by Marcus96 on 2019-01-24

Hi

I am trying to load a csv file of my sampling grid into Collect Earth. I have prepared the points grid in QGIS, and have prepared the relevant csv file. 

However, when I load the csv and save&apply changes using Tools > Properties > Sample Data, I get an error message: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FW5lC5Fc3vGWuKkCf8jfJI4nfuklgpTU/view

Any help or suggestions will be much appreciated.

Thanks!!
