How to Upload Photos (Web)

1. Login to the SiteCam Web App and open the project you want to upload photos into.

2. Within the project, click on the Add Photos button.

3. Navigate to where the photos are saved on your computer. Select the photos you want to upload and press the Open button.

4. Your photos will appear in the Add Photos preview window. To remove any photos, press the ⛔️ icon on the top right of each thumbnail. To add more photos to the preview window, press the [+] icon.

All the photos you add to the preview window will form a Capture Group. A Capture Group is a collection of photos in SiteCam with a common description, record type, and set of tags. If you don’t want photos to be grouped together, add them in separate batches, or upload your photos through the SiteCam Mobile App.

To view a larger preview of the photo, click on a thumbnail. You can press the left and right icons (or the left and right arrow keys) to scroll through the photos. To go back to the thumbnail view, press the button on the top right.

Once you are happy with the photos, proceed to organizing and adding details to the Capture Group.

5. Select a folder to save the photos into. If a plan is attached to the selected folder, it will be displayed underneath. You can drag the pin on the plan to specify a location for the Capture Group. Alternatively, disable the Pin to plan toggle to place the Capture Group into that folder without a pin on the plan.

You can enlarge the plan by pressing the icon on the top right of the plan window.

6. Set a Record Type, add some Tags and type in a Description for the Capture Group.

7. The Map shows the geo locations of all the photos in the Capture Group with GPS data. You can click on a pin on the map to view the corresponding photo.

If GPS data is not contained within your photos, you can manually set a map location for them by clicking on each photo thumbnail and pressing the SET LOCATION button.

8. When you are done, press the SAVE button to complete the upload process.
