🚀 Getting Started
This quick guide takes you from zero to your first site and survey.
Prerequisites
- An email address you can verify
- An organisation to join, or permission to create one
- Basic site geometry (you can draw it if you don’t have GeoJSON yet)
1) Sign Up & Log In
- Open MariMap and create an account.
- Verify your email if prompted, then sign in.
2) Create or Join an Organisation
- If your team already exists, ask an admin to invite you.
- Otherwise, create an organisation and set its name, type, and country.
Roles: Admin can manage members and settings. Editor can create/edit content. Viewer has read‑only access.
3) Create a Project
Projects group your sites, surveys, and reports.
- Go to Projects → Create Project.
- Add a name, description, and optional dates.
- Save.
4) Create a Site
- Open your project → Sites → Create Site.
- Enter site basics (name, description, type).
- Define the geometry: draw a polygon on the map or import GeoJSON.
- Save.
Tip: Keep plot boundaries consistent so trends make sense over time.
5) Create a Survey
- Open Surveys → Create Survey.
- Choose the site, survey type (e.g., Mangrove Growth), and date.
- Enter measurements or upload a file if your workflow supports imports.
- Save.
6) Generate a Report
- Go to Reports → Create Report.
- Select the projects/sites and a date range.
- Generate the report and download the PDF once it’s ready.
