Description of user levels

The InfoEx system has four types of users with increasing permission levels:

• User: Can enter observations and view InfoEx reports
• Submission moderator: Can submit observations to the InfoEx and execute workflows
• Operation administrator: Can modify location catalog, define InfoEx report templates and workflows, add and remove users from operation
• Super user (CAA only): Can administer the InfoEx and create new operations

The purpose of this document is to provide a general overview of the actions that the different user levels allowed to do.
