46 CWMP 2013-2014 Winter Field Season Report
Once you have entered your data through the Google form be sure to leave your
datasheets in the 3-ring binder in the bin of field equipment at SnoValley Coffee.
Fill out a "Coversheet" (found in the three-ring binder in the section titled
"Coversheets"). Place the coversheet at the top of your stack of data sheets, staple them
together, three-hole punch them (careful to avoid destroying data) and put them in the 3-
ring binder in the section labeled: "DATASHEETS." The stapler, 3 hole punch and binder
are found in the Rubbermaid tote.
If you enter your data at home after your transect, please bring your data sheets with you
on your next transect and drop them off at that time.
TRAILING ROUTES
Smart Phones
For each trailing event in the field track the route using your GPS app on your phone.
How to do this will vary depending on your app. Once complete, label the route
following this format: Transect name-date-observation number. For example: EastonS-
17NOV2013-2. Either in the field or once out of the field, export the route by emailing it
to yourself. You can then move the emailed file onto the google drive shared folder
entitled "Trailing GPS Files"-

Many apps will produce files in a .gpx format as well as a .kml (google earth). Please be
sure to upload the track in the .gpx format.
GPS Units
Follow instructions for the specific GPS Unit you are using to make a track for your
trailing route in the field. Once out of the field use the appropriate cable to download the
track from your GPS unit to the computer you are using. You can then upload the file
(should be in a .gpx file format) to the same folder mentioned above.
PHOTOGRAPHS
Photographs can be uploaded to the shared google drive folder from any computer. If
you are using the project computer there is a card reader in the computer case. If
you are concerned bring your own card reader or cable to connect your camera to
the computer.
