Disk representation

A Geocap project is stored in a folder on your computer. The project consist of a ".db" file, which contains information about the project tree, and several files which contain the data sets. You should let Geocap manage the files in the project folder and should not store other files in this folder.

If you want to make a backup of your projects, or if you want to exchange Geocap projects with other Geocap users you may zip the project folder with all the underlaying datasets into one file. This is convenient for sending e.g. to support@geocap.no.
