Data Capture - Tasks Management
1. Description
Once the assets are created on the Data Capture Module, you can start creating and managing Data Capture tasks.
2. Data capture task creation
Step 1 - Click on the "+ NEW TASK" button in the Task Manager to create a new task from scratch in the Data Capture Module.
Step 2 - Indicate the different information related to the data capture task, at this stage, the minimum information required is the corresponding Company and the Task name. The new task created appears in the "Pending" section of the Task manager.
Info
For tasks generated from the Season Planner, the task automatically gets the status "Ready"
You have the possibility to filter or sort the capture tasks with the 2 following buttons.
- Filters
- Sort
3. Task workflow
There is multiple task status in the Data Capture Module. The user has to edit the task and complete the required information to move from one status to another.
- To edit a task, click on the three dots close to the task name while you are on the Task Manager.
There is some required information to move a task from one status to another:
From Pending to Ready
- Give a name to the task.
- Select the Alteia Site if there is an existing one or create one directly from the task.
- Define the Forecast mission date.
From Ready to Assigned
- Select the Team and Pilot that will perform the task.

- Schedule the mission.
From Scheduled to Data captured
The condition for moving a task to the status “Data Captured” is to fill in the field report.

From Data Captured to Data Submitted.
The user or the pilot has to upload the data from the mission.
Important
The type of requested data set/input depends on two settings selected at the data capture task creation:
- TASK PROPERTIES section: Purpose (Mapping or Raw or 3D Modeling).
- COLLECTION REQUIREMENT section: Sensor type.
From Data Submitted to Completed
The data capture task is validated.
