A project is the top-level container in Cadence. It stores your maps, uploaded files, and collaborators.
Every map you create lives inside a project. All maps in a project share the same project bounds (the geographic area the project covers) and the same file storage. If you upload a data file to a project, it’s available to every map in that project — you don’t need to re-upload it.
Key things to know
- A project has one owner. Any number of collaborators can be added.
- Only one person can edit a project at a time. If someone else has it open, you’ll see a message that it’s locked.
- Collaborators are added by email address. Cadence doesn’t send a notification when someone is added; you’ll need to let them know yourself.
- Collaborators see the project in their projects list once they’ve been added.
