Using GPS data to create maps for your report

Hi all,

I am trying to create a map visual for my data after connecting directly to ODK central via OData Feed. I realized the usual longitude and latitude columns are no more available, rather they are put together in one column in this form SRID=4326;POINT (-2.660435 6.5646192 200.5). Now how do I get the data back to longitude and latitude to create my map visual? When I download the data as csv file, I see the longitude and the latitude. Why is the data this way when I connect through OData Feed. Thank you.
aThis is how the data looks likeThis is how the data looks like

@Inkoom in power query you have text between delimiter, using that create a new column. then split it using split column by delimiter and create two column
