June 2004 DelphMap™ User's Manual

1. In Windows Explorer, create a parent folder (directory) to hold your

DelphMap project (DMP) file.

2. In Windows Explorer, create child folders — one for each type of file

and/or layer to be inserted/imported.

For example, you might create a subfolder for your contacts, a subfolder
for your bathymetry and/or side-scan sonar files (DDS_VIF), another for
your XTF files, one for your DXF files (if any), and so on. Such an
arrangement would produce one parent folder and some child folders.
Figure 3 shows an example of this.

FIGURE 3. Project Parent Folder and Five Arbitrary Child Folders

In the example shown in Figure 3, the DemoWreck folder is the parent
folder and will contain the DMP file for this sample project.

3. Copy the different files you wish to include in your project into the

appropriate child folders for this project.

4. Run DelphMap (double-click the DelphMap icon or file name to run

it).

5. From DelphMap’s main menu click Settings

Files and specify the

folder you created in step #1. This will become your working
directory for this project.

6. Create a new DelphMap project file name to be associated with the

project you are creating: filename.DMP — where filename.DMP is
the name of the project you are creating, such as MyProject.DMP.
As you do this, visually verify that filename.DMP is being created in
the parent folder specified in step #1.
