# What are Projects?

PhotosynQ organizes measurements, Protocols, Project Questions, locations, team access, subscriptions, and analysis in Projects. Only authorized Project team members can collect or access member-only Project measurements and forums.

The creator of a Project is the Project Lead, who:

  1. Chooses the measurement protocol to be used.
  2. Defines the Project questions.
  3. Controls who can contribute to and administer the Project.
  4. Invites Administrators and Collaborators to the Project.

A discoverable Canopy Project may allow a user to request access. A Project administrator must approve the request before the user becomes a team member. Vault Projects are available only by invitation.
