Directory Structure
The database is subdivided in three data groups defined by their different file format (ASCII, RASTER and VECTOR).
Copy the database files on your driver keeping the following directory structure:

ASCII format files
Data are provided in a tabular format (.txt, tab delimited) and can be imported in a number of GIS or spreadsheet software packages.
| Directory | Root \ cf_gis \ ascii |
| File Name | Description |
| cf_edm_1972 (6 Kb) |
Coordinates of the EDM monitoring network (Versino, 1972) in use from 1972 to 1983. |
| cf_edm_1991(3 Kb) | Coordinates of the preent EDM monitoring network (Berrino, 1995) in use from 1991. |
| cf_leveling (11 Kb) | Coordinates of the leveling monitoring network. |
| cf_gravity (2 Kb) | Coordinates of the gravity monitoring network (after Goettsmann et al., 2003). |
Note: Data are also provided in ArcView shapefiles. To have the ArcExplorer project properly working, you need to upload the ascii_shapefiles in the vector folder.

RASTER format files
Image data are provided in TIFF format that can be used in a number of GIS and visualization software packages that use the TIFF world file (TFW suffix) to geocalibrate the map.
