Let's do this together!

Capturing real-world data is often about more than just points on a map-sometimes you need the full picture (literally). In this tutorial, we dive into the Photo Attachment widget to help you seamlessly integrate photography into your Mergin Maps field surveys. Whether you're looking to snap a single high-res photo or organize thousands of images into subfolders, this video covers the essential configurations in QGIS to get your mobile forms field-ready.

📢 Mergin Maps tutorial videos are now on #PeerTube!

If you use @merginmaps, the #opensource, field data collection tool built on #QGIS, you can now watch the video tutorials on #QwastTube:
