Camp Approval & Placement

This guide covers the complete process of reviewing, approving, and placing theme camps in the dust system. This is for burn organizers managing camp registrations.

tip

Setup questions to require additional information when a theme camp registers. Eg Camp dimensions, LNT plan etc. These questions are part of the approval process.

Camp Approval

When camps are registered, they go through an approval workflow:

  • Unapproved - Newly registered camps that haven't been reviewed yet
  • Approved - Camps that have been reviewed and are visible in the dust app

Only approved camps appear in the dust app for burners to view.

Reviewing Camp

When a camp registers for your burn:

  1. You receive an email notification about the new registration
  2. Visit edit.dust.events and sign in
  3. Select your burn and click Camps
  4. Look for camps marked with a warning icon - these are unapproved
  5. Click on a camp name to view its full details

Approving or Unapproving

  1. Click the Approve button to make the camp visible in the dust app
  2. Click the Unapprove to hide an approved camp from the app

When you approve a camp, it will become visible to burners in the dust app once once you have published. You can unapprove a camp at any time if needed (for example, if a camp cancels or doesn't need placement).

tip

Camp leads can see whether their camp is approved or not. They see a checkmark if it will appear in the dust app or a wanring indicating the camp will not appear in the dust app until approved.

Placement

Placement refers to the process of assigning physical locations on the map.

Placing on the Map

Once you have placement information and have made location decisions you can manually place a camp on the map:

  1. Go to Camps and click on a camp
  2. Click Place to open the map interface
  3. Click on the map to set the camp's location
  4. Click Save to confirm the placement

You can also import locations of camps from Google Maps.
