Some of you have asked how to quickly upload or embed videos to Land Surveyors United in a simple way. Here is a quick tutorial on how to add surveying videos to the network.
How To Find and Upload Surveying Videos in Less than 1 Minute
Upload Surveying Videos from Your Computer
- Go to the Videos section.
- Click the icon in the middle of the screen "Click to Add Videos".
- In the browse window, find the video you would like to upload and click "Select". If you would like to upload more than one video, click the "Add More" link.
- When you've finished adding videos to the upload list, click the "Upload" button.
- After uploading has finished, you will be taken to a page where you can add a title, description and tags to your video(s).
- Once you're finished, click "Save".
If you're experiencing issues with the bulk uploader, you can always use the simple uploader by clicking the "simple uploader" link at the bottom of the "Add Videos" page.
You can add up to 30 videos at a time, and each video may be up to 100MB in size. LSU supports videos in the .mov, .mp4, .mpg, .avi, .wmv, .3gp, and .3g2 file formats. You can also try the simple uploader.
NOTE: In the same way that you can add photos to the network via email or cell phone, you can do the same thing with your surveying videos from the field. Simply find your special email address in the back-end of your profile and send the video with that method.
