word document with additional details such as GPS coordinates of specific
photos and route descriptions, etc as needed. Note that if you have the ability to
add GPS coordinates and captions to individual photos metadata, CNW will be
able to access this information.

CWMP Communications Protocol
Due to the potential social and political sensitivity of some species and the
importance of this work being shared in a scientific and thoughtful manner, the
Citizen Wildlife Monitoring Project has a Communications Protocol for all
volunteers and staff of the effort.
All photos taken by cameras owned by the CWMP are owned by the non-profit
organizations sponsoring this effort, and we strongly encourage that any
cameras not owned by our effort but participating in it please follow this protocol
as well.
All photos taken by cameras and retrieved by teams are only released to
people outside the program by one of the three program sponsor
organizations or by an agency affiliated with our Advisory Council.
Volunteers are not to share their results with anyone outside the program
directly.
Photos gathered off of a camera are sent in per the protocol above for
review and decisions about communicating.
