Overview

Wildlife Photo Survey is a configuration of ArcGIS combined with a JavaScript application that can be used by Fish and Wildlife organizations to publish photo collections and conduct surveys to collect valuable information from photos taken in the wild.

Wildlife Photo Survey can leverage photos gathered from camera traps in the wild. It combines photos with a series of questions in the form of an online survey and associates the answers to the locations where the photos were taken.

The simple to use application will enable Fish and Wildlife staff, and optionally volunteer naturalists or the general public, to review captured images to quickly gather information about the distribution and behavior of wild animals in their natural habitat.
