From release of EFDC_Explorer7 there has been a pre-set folder structure for model outputs and EE generated files. All input files needed by EFDC and EE are stored in the main project folder. This makes it easier to identify which files are needed by EFDC/EE and which ones are not. To send a colleague/regulator the required files the user only needs to copy all the files (not subdirectories) in the project folder. All other EFDCPlus and EE generated files are placed in a defined sub-folder. EFDC model output is contained in the #output folder with other folders being used to organize and manage EE user created files. These include:


#analysisGeneral EE plot files and EE exported data
#animationsEE generated .AVI animations
#calib_plotsCalibration plots
#calib_statsCalibration statistic files
#calib_exportEE exported files from the calibration plotting utility
#outputEFDC output files


When the user requests some plot or data extraction EE will still bring up a file browsing dialog allowing the user to write the files to any location, however, the default locations will be those identified above.
