Photos are one of the best ways to demonstrate the extent of damage sustained from an incident. Incident commanders, insurance adjusters, FEMA representatives, and property owners will all get a better idea of conditions with photographs. Keep in mind that you are preserving evidence, not winning photography awards. The built-in camera from a mobile device will capture details. Also, the auto-generated watermark will add a timestamp and coordinates to each photo that will link your photos to the location. | Photos are one of the best ways to demonstrate the extent of damage sustained from an incident.

Whenever possible, it is best to take a photo from the Survey123 app instead of uploading one from your photo library. When taken from the app, the photo is stamped with metadata and is also taken in a size that is palatable to the record (Survey123 will not accept an attachment larger than 10 MB, which is not much). | |||
