📂 Creating a Project

Projects collect related sites, survey plans, surveys, and reports inside an organisation.

Steps

1. From your organisation, go to Projects (https://marimap.com/app/projects (opens in a new tab)).
2. Click Create Project (https://marimap.com/app/projects/new (opens in a new tab)).
3. Fill in:
   • Project Name
   • Description (optional)
   • Ecological aims (multi-select)
   • Socio-economic aims (multi-select)
   • Other aims (optional tags)
   • Main finance mechanism (optional single select)
   • Finance mechanisms (optional multi-select)
4. Save. The project becomes available when creating Sites, Survey Plans, Surveys, and Reports.

Tips

• Use one project per programme/region so reporting stays focused.
• If unsure about finance, leave fields blank—you can update later.
• Agree on naming patterns; the generator for site/survey IDs uses the project name abbreviation.
