To add images to the tally or measured pipeline points

You can add photos to the tally or measured pipeline points as long as the feature code library assigned to the job has photo attributes defined on one or more codes and the name of a photo attribute matches the name of a column in the tally file . When these conditions are met, the field is displayed in the Pipelines software as a photo attribute field, allowing you to add an image.

To upload photos captured while performing the tally check or joint mapping to the cloud when you upload tally file changes, tap the Media file button in the Job properties screen and select Job in the Link to field. Tap Accept.

  1. To capture an image:
    • Tap next to the photo attribute field and select Take photo.
    • Tap the Camera softkey at the bottom of the screen.

    The camera application in the controller opens.

  2. If the screen shows an image of you then the front-facing (selfie) camera is selected. To change to the rear-facing camera, tap the Switch camera icon in the top left.
  3. To change the camera or image settings, tap the Settings icon and make your changes. For more information, refer to the documentation for your controller.
  4. Position the controller to capture the required image and then tap the camera button or the OK button on the controller to capture the image.

  5. To close the camera, tap the screen and then tap X in the top right.

    The name of the captured image file is inserted in the photo attribute field. The photo file is saved to the <job name> Files folder in the project folder.

    If you tapped Camera and all the photo attribute fields in the screen have data entered in them then the last photo attribute field is updated with the file name of the new image.

To review an image entered in an attribute field, tap and select Review.

Alternatively, you can review images in Review job.
