How should I prepare my collection of camera trap images/videos for submission?
WildObs supports the Camtrap DP (Camera Trap Data Package) standard ↗.
This structure links each media file to its corresponding metadata (e.g. species identification,
timestamp, location) in a tidy, consistent way, perfect for analysis or sharing.
What you need to do:
- Organise your images/videos. Usually in folders representing deployments, observations, and
- media. Follow the column structure for CamtrapDP Format Requirements ↗.
- Ensure images are linked to spreadsheet data using unique identifiers or filenames.
- Complete this survey ↗ to provide the required metadata for your submission.
- The following will display an example of each:
- Deployments.csv
- Observations.csv
- Media.csv
