The required data are developed into a shapefile structure for integration into a GIS project. Few, if any, of the required data will already exist in a shapefile structure. Once the data are in shapefiles, the shapefiles can be combined into a CV project. A project is nothing more that a master file that specifies the names, locations (on the computer), and start-up attributes for each of the shapefiles. Once the CV application is started and a project file is opened, the shapefiles in the project are shown as map layers.
