Well done! 👍 You're finished with your first recording. Now it is time to upload the capture to Roadly Cloud Engine. Don't worry, you won't need any tech skills for that.
Sufficient Lighting: Adequate daylight is essential for accurate data capture. Ensure that surveying is conducted during daylight hours to guarantee optimal processing and results.
Storage Capacity: Prior to recording, verify sufficient free storage on your smartphone. As a general guideline, approximately 1GB of storage is required for every 10 minutes of recording.
Avoid overheating. During hot weather, the phone may overheat to a point where it becomes inoperable. Reduce screen brightness to a minimum to conserve battery and reduce heat generation. Opt for a case with good ventilation to allow heat dissipation. Avoid thick, insulating cases. If possible, turn off the dash cam app when parked for extended periods to give the phone a rest.
