Before diving in to create or open an existing Info Water Pro project.
00:08
It is useful to understand that the project storage structure that Argi
00:12
Pro and Info Water Pro creates
00:16
knowing this structure can help you find files or
00:18
folders and not accidentally move or delete these files.
00:23
There are three project files and folders to look out for
00:27
the
00:27
Agis Pro map or network schematic file is stored as a dot
00:31
ARX file,
00:33
your shape files and the visualization of your elements are contained in this file.
00:38
Next, the I W DB folder is an Info Water Pro database folder where all the elements
00:44
inputs and modeling files that you create are stored.
00:49
This folder is what you would need to provide on an Autodesk support call.
00:53
Finally, the dot
00:55
ut folder is where all the modeling results are stored.
00:59
Any time you run a simulation, the result files are sent to the dot
01:03
ut folder.
01:05
The mathematical solution for a model is stored in a binary
01:08
format and can be saved for later review and analysis.
01:13
This file can also be saved to any database spreadsheet
01:17
or text format for use in other software packages.
01:21
It is important that these project files
01:23
and folders are stored together with the exact
01:25
same name as Info Water Pro will try to create a new empty project.
01:30
If the I W DB and APR X are in different locations or have different names.

If the I W DB and APR X are in different locations or have different names.
ArcGIS Pro and InfoWater Pro create a specific storage structure for the project folders. It is important to understand how this storage structure works, as well as the types of files that are created.
There are three project files and folders created by ArcGIS Pro and InfoWater Pro:
IMPORTANT: These project files and folders are stored together with the exact same name, as InfoWater Pro will try to create a new, empty project if the IWDB and APRX are in different locations or have different names.
