## About this repo
This is a Python/Photoshop toolbox to help automate managing images captured for the Coastsnap project. This toolbox was written for a specific workflow (Download -> Register -> Tag -> Manually remove bad images in 'Registered'). See `workflow.pptx`, for a more informative schematic of the intended workflow. Batch downloading code is an extension on the Leaman CoastSnap Toolbox (http://git.wrl.unsw.edu.au:3000/chrisl/coastsnap.git)
