Keeping Your Data Organised
The WinCan VX project folder structure for HADDMS projects is no different than for any other VX project and has a lot of folders and sub-folders which are used by the system. The purpose of this section is to understand some of the more important folders, how and why they are used in certain ways by the default processes used with WinCan VX.

Data Exchange – this is where all Export data sets and files are saved from WinCan VX in all territories and standards, so when you get to the very end of the HADDMS data consolidation process and you are ready to export the data to shapefiles for delivery to the client (see section Creating Exports for Delivery), this is where they will be saved in a date and time stamped folder, so that repeated exports do not overwrite each other.
Module - this is a common folder for all WinCan 3rd party application data and is completely synchronised with WinCan Web
Map – this folder is a seemingly odd location, but one gets used to it after a while. This folder is the default location that WinCan Map VX loads when you click on the button to ‘Add a Layer’you should use for saving and storing all of your project-specific shapefiles and associated data. A layer is just a shapefile (see section Shapefiles), so it makes sense to use this folder as the default location for saving all external and useful shapefiles (see section Useful External Files) that might be needed by the project users, particularly CCTV operators and data processors.

Video – this folder contains all the videos for the project. In this folder there are 2 sub folders called Sec and Nod. The folders contain the videos for Sections (and laterals) and Nodes.
