3) With your memory card viewer (hooked to computer via USB) or via your own computer
internal memory card reader insert memory card from a camera and go through all photos in
whatever photo viewer program you use (window media, Divx, Mac photo program, etc).
Determine if you have any series of photos taken by false triggers such as light changes,
temperature changes, waving branches, etc. If those photos number in the
hundreds/thousands, do not place those photos in dropbox.
4) Transfer all photos, for any species recorded in your dropbox folders for each respective
camera. Include a note in each camera folder (via word document, etc) for any instances of
runaway photo taking from false triggers
5) There will also be a folder named "General Photos" in your site photo for any relevant photos
you take with your own digital camera of the site/route to site/wildlife tracks sign, etc.
Within the "General Field Photos" folder create a folder for each time you head into the field.
Example "Mt. Rainier site visit 8_30_12"
Label individual photos as best you can prior to uploading into the folder and include a word
document with additional details such as GPS coordinates of specific photos and route
descriptions, etc
