These are the simple steps you need to perform to store your data (images) in Navigator-3.
Contents
Upload files
The first step is to upload the files using any FTP client (e.g. FileZilla) to your personal temporary folder, the URL is ftp://cmbn-navigator.uio.no:2121
Note the non-standard port number:
After the upload is finished you can login into the main data management interface: http://cmbn-navigator.uio.no/navigator/ You should see your project there. Please double-click on the project node and rename it/add metadata:
Click Save button.
Create Animal
Now you are ready to create the Animal. Click Add button in the Animals column. You should see this:
Please provide the metadata, the red fields are mandatory. Click Save button. Select the created node by clicking on it:
Create Block
The similar way you create the Block – click on Add button in the Block column, fill in the metadata, click Save button and select the created Block node:
Representations: process the uploaded files
Once the Block node is selected click Add button in the Representations column. This button will open a panel with the files you’ve uploaded via FTP: Select the files and drag’n’drop them to the Representation column: Click Yes. The processing might be a time consuming task. After it has started you can close the browser and login later to check the progress:

Tools you get right out of the box
These basic tools are available right after the processing is complete.

It will open the viewer (use mouse (click, drag, wheel) to navigate): - Film strip viewer. It’s available from Block node (double-click on a block to open the window):

Data sharing
You can copy viewers URLs and share them (email, skype etc.) without accessing the main data management interface. The Private data is protected by username/password, the recipients should be associated (i.e. have an account) with the Project in order to access the data.
