Project Companion

Attention! This version will only work in connection with an FTP server and a data source for projects and categories (e.g. project management tool) and cannot be operated without appropriate configuration and server. Please find information on my website about different options or contact me in order to find a solution suited to your needs.
To work without tools and FTP server, there is SortCam, an application with the possibility to create your own configuration.
Project Companion doesn´t name photos according to the familiar pattern with a serial number, but with a text defined by you, and with date or time additionally. In this way, instead of IMG.27354.JPG you´ll have a telling name like (for a construction company) Jones_facade_001.JPG, or (in real estate) Jones_livingroom_001.JPG. You can then file these photos or forward them to a colleague without having to open and view them again. This spares the trouble of having to find captions for your pictures later on. That can be a considerable advantage, especially if you have a larger number of similar photos, or if the labeling of the pictures is done much later. In addition to that, the check list trait of the app helps you to recognize which pictures are still wanting – in case you need them, e.g. for customer documentation.
In addition to the functions of SortCam, Project Companion offers the possibility of importing different configurations from an FTP server and exporting the photos to an FTP server. The checklist can vary, depending on the type of project. The data for projects and their type may be, for instance, from project management / - tracking tools, and are stored on the FTP server.
