Excel CSV to Wigle

I have bespoke software that records all wi-fi as i'm out on the road, it generates a CSV that I can open in Excel.

It has all the data + some other that Wigle records.

I've tried creating a CSV in the default format, removing the extra data and uploading, but it never gets through processing.

Is there a format I can put it into ?, does it require specific headers etc to get it uploaded and processed.

It seems such a waste as it has the potential to record large amounts of data.


Any help or Ideas on how I can do this

Thanks

Back in the bad-old-days with my Compaq iPad I had Excel format output that I massaged into Kismet standard format, which WiGLE was able to ingest. It involved some formulas to manipulate the data into the right date formats, GPS coordinate formats, etc. It was beastly compared to the direct upload from the WiGLE WiFi app, but it worked.
If you can find a sample Kismet file you can probably perform similar magic.

That said, if your software is reasonably close to something else in it's output, the Admins have been nothing short of amazingly responsive to updating the parser to consume various app formats.
