Sorting the output files into folders provides a first system of order in the output data. However, once a file has been moved out of its folder or if several simulations come together, this system is not unique and not persistent. As a solution, the ENVI-met file name generation scheme allows a direct identification of the simulation files and their content. | Sorting the output files into folders provides a first system of order in the output data.
