1. Download the CoastSnap Starters Toolkit and unzip contents to your local directory. This directory will be your BASE_PATH (needed for step 3)

2. Download the MATLAB files of this GitHub site to the CoastSnap/Code directory

3. Update the following two files to match your local setup: CSPsetPaths.m and CSPloadPaths.m

Thats all - you should now be up and running

Setting up a new CoastSnap station requires two steps:

1. In the Images directory, create a copy of create_newsitename_here and rename it to your sitename (e.g. nthnarrabn, manly).

2. In the CoastSnapDB.xlsx (found in the Database folder), create a new tab with the exact name as your sitename above. It is best to copy an existing tab like manly as the structure of this needs to be identical.

To be added

All new images from various the sources (e.g. Instagram, Facebook, Email) are to be saved to the Raw folder for each respective station.
