Import CSV File Window
The Import CSV File window enables you to import custom terrorism events into a custom event set from a comma-separated values (CSV) file. You can also get to this window by editing a custom terrorism event set.
You can import up to 500 non-geocoded terrorism events (events with no latitude/longitude information) or 21,000 geocoded terrorism events. When creating the CSV file that you want to import, you must include the event name and weapon type. In addition, for each Large Plane Crash or Small Plane Crash event that you want to import, you must also include height (i.e., number of stories) data.
