Good job! You've set up your Birdi account, and now you're ready to create your first map.
Depending on how you like to operate, you can either create your maps and objectives first and then go and do all of your capture of the relevant sites/locations, or you can set up your maps after you've captured your data. The steps will be the same.
Create the map
In the navigation menu, click + Create a map
Add a map name
Select the map location
Add a map brief (optional step) and click Next
Create your map objectives
Objectives are a way to group your geospatial imagery - important for easy filtering, or any processing you do later.
Give your objective a name, or keep the default one
Add in a description (optional)
Then you can choose to upload or draw an area of interest (this is a polygon bounding box to show the area you're interested in)
You can go ahead and create as many objectives as you need (or you can start with one and add in additional objectives later on if you need them).
Once your objectives are created, you can go ahead and upload the relevant imagery to each objective.
