First thing you need to do is to get a SecureWatch account :) quite obvious but not so easy!

In Collect Earth you will need to go to **Properties->Integrated Services** and then select on the "***Open Maxar SecureWatch***"

Depending of the type of SecureWatch user you have you must set now the URL to access the service.

- For **older** accounts, this URL is the default one in Collect Earth: *https://access.maxar.com/myDigitalGlobe* 
- For **newer** accounts you might need to change the URL and use this one: *https://securewatch.digitalglobe.com/myDigitalGlobe*

If you have problems login into the SecureWatch page try switching the URL as mentioned above

Once you have changed these settings and click on Apply you can click on a new plot and you will get a new browser window that directs you to the SecureWatch login page. Then you input your username and password and you will finally be redirected to the SecureWatch interface where you can actually see the plot.

SecureWatch's interface has quite a lot of options, here there is a list of video tutorials : https://explore.maxar.com/SecureWatch-Tutorial-Series.html
