-Each ENVI-met database, System or User/Project, holds the following tables:  +
- +
-  * [[filereference:dbsystem:soils|Soils]]: Properties of different natural and artificial soils +
-  * [[filereference:dbsystem:profiles|Soil Profiles]]:Different soil types as vertical sandwiches of soils +
-  * [[filereference:dbsystem:materials|Materials]]: Basic collection of different materials that can be use in walls  +
-  * [[filereference:dbsystem:walls|Walls]]: Sets of building walls and roof composed out of 3 layers of different materials +
-  * [[filereference:dbsystem:singlewalls|Single Walls]]: Sets of single and thin walls consisting of one material +
-  * [[filereference:dbsystem:simpleplants|SimplePlants]]: Simple 1D plants such as grass.  +
-  * [[filereference:dbsystem:sources|Sources]]: Emission profiles for different pollutant sources. +

 The **//User Database//** is the place where you can place all **your** personal data and settings. ENVI-met will not touch this database, even not when updating the software. However, you are responsible for the content of this database. If you add information that doesn't make sense e.g non-physical material properties, you will probably crash your simulation. The User Database is used for all projects unless you specifiy an individual project-centered database (see next paragraph). The **//User Database//** is the place where you can place all **your** personal data and settings.
