Photo collection demo, not the FireView app. This page is a field trial aid for the draft photo criteria: it gathers example photos so everyone can see what a good photo looks like at each stage. It is not the FireView product, it does not review, approve or sign anything off, and it retires once the FireView photo capture app is live. The criteria themselves are still a draft for comment.
FireView Photos
Shared example photos
Choose a building type below, then a house type within it. The list underneath shows only the photo criteria that apply to it. Open a criterion to read the description and top tip, then add your photos. Everything here is shared: whatever you add, everyone else on this link sees, and whatever they add, you see.
Put your name in the Uploading as box, just under the house types. It is shown under every photo you add, so the team can tell who took what.
Pick a building type on the first row (detached, attached, single apartments, blocks of apartments). The second row then offers only the house types inside it. Pick one of those, and the list underneath shows only the criteria that apply to it.
Open a criterion to read the description and top tip, and to see the photos already added for that house type.
Add a photo with Take photo, which opens the camera, or Add from library, which lets you pick photos you have already taken. You can pick several at once from the library.
Photos are shared with everyone on this link. Remove takes a photo away for everyone, not just for you, so you are asked to confirm first and told who added it.
The page refreshes itself about once a minute while you are looking at it, so photos other people add appear on their own. The line at the very bottom of the page says when it last updated.
Appendices is the section under the four stages. Use it for any documents that belong to the plot type, one at a time, each with a short name so people can tell them apart. PDF documents and JPG photos only.
Photo compilation, at the top of the page, gathers everything for the house type you are looking at onto one page you can print or save as a PDF. It can be drawn at any point; criteria with no photos yet appear with a marked empty space rather than being left out.
Photos are resized in your browser before they are sent, which keeps them quick to load and also removes the location information a phone camera writes into a photo. A PDF appendix cannot be resized, so it is sent exactly as it is and keeps whatever the program that made it put inside. There is a limit of ten photos per criterion per house type, and ten appendices per house type.

Your name is shown under every photo you add, so the team can see who took what.

Name this appendix
This is what everyone else sees in the list, so a name like Smoke detector certificate is more use than the one the file came with.
Your browser decides the paper size, the scale, and whether it adds its own header and footer line to each page. Turning background graphics on in the print dialogue adds the tinted areas; everything here reads without them.
