THE PHOTO LIBRARY

The photo library is a repository of photos for public use. These can be used for purposes related to:
    » land use
    » land use change
    » human settlement
    » vegetation
    » climate
    » etc

How to submit photos

Upload photos in jpg format only.

For each photo you need to provide basic metadata: date, time, location (latitude and longitude coordinates in decimal degrees, title, description, origin/photographer). Where possible, this information is extracted from the EXIF data stored by the camera or device which took the photo. So if your camera/phone has a GPS and the position was stored with the photo, this will be extracted automatically, as will the date and time.

Use this form to submit small numbers of photos one-by-one. For larger quantities, photos in other formats, or any other queries, please contact us.

Upload photos to the EIS photo library

Photos relating to landscapes, land use, land use change, human settlement, vegetation, climate and similar

You can upload indiviudal photos here. However if you have multiple photos to upload, it may be better to put them in a dropbox or similar and complete a spreadsheet with their details (we can provide a template for this). All uploaded photos will be manually checked before being made publicly available on the EIS. By uploading photos you agree to them being made publicly available.

» You can also click here to upload biodiversity records - snakes, mammals, amphibians, alien plants.
