File Management - March 1

Your GIS information should be properly arranged and maintained; so you can easily find and retrieve the information needed for your projects. 
When your files are well managed and arranged; it is easy to find data for business decisions.  If your files are not managed properly, it can lead your project into chaos because you are too busy trying to find information, poor performance and lose of work hours and costs.

c:\> Prov; file all Base Data>cities/road/etc
>Stella; file all Base Data>roads/rivers/etc
   file all working;MXD;Images in another file folder
>Zone A;store all Base Data>cities/roads/rivers/etc
 file all working data;mxd;imaged in another file folder
> Project A; final project stored usb/hard copy
> Project B; final project stored in usb/hard copy

I was in a laughing mood, and found this joke: On Computers




Jesus and Satan were having an ongoing argument about who was better on his computer. They had been going at it for days, and God was tired of hearing all of the bickering.



Finally God said, "Cool it. I am going to set up a test that will run two hours and I will judge who does the better job."



So, Satan and Jesus sat at the keyboards and typed away. They moused, They did spreadsheets, They wrote reports. They sent faxes. They sent e-mail, They sent out e-mail with attachments.



They downloaded, They did some genealogy reports. They made cards. They did every known job



But ten minutes before their time was up, lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, thunder rolled, the rain poured and, of course, the electricity went off.



Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word known in the underworld. Jesus just sighed.



The electricity finally flickered back on, and each of them restarted their computers. Satan started searching frantically, screaming "It's gone! It's all gone! I lost everything when the power went out!"



Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all of his files from the past two hours. Satan observed this and became irate. "Wait! He cheated, how did he do it?"



God shrugged and said, "Jesus saves."
