Currently i am doing researtch on this subject, i'd be very interested to talk to people and find out how they approach this within their organisation. Feel free to reach out.

Thank you for this

very thank you

A file system from a university? Definitely a No Thanks !

Very informative. Thank you

What software do people typically use for version control of research data?

2022 all u had to do was to show a better option to organize files not to adapt to a decade old shet hierchy file structure , this is why your channel regardless how much time and effort u put on these videos will not grow. trash

Dont use acronyms! You will forget it ! Your team mates will ask what is it! It is not the old era of pc where every bit counted and screens were small just write a long name it is ok ! As for versions use date and the time of day in 24 hour format Like 2023/12/24-1830 By the way pro time every hour of edit save a version! And this system will allow you to keep going it will push you once you see the files and notice that you have not been working your brain will say oh start work look there are dates we didn't work!

I would also add a strong recommendation to avoid if possible binary formats. It is almost trivial to track or spot differences between say two TSV files without opening them (git and diff).

your typical file name: asnvkajsndlkj.txt

Most filesystem also provides ways to add tags to files, tags that can be used when searching for a specific file or a group of files.

Extremely valuable!🗂️🙌🏻

En la carpeta en donde vayan a estar varias revisiones siempre pongo una carpeta llamada "_Superados". Esto con la finalidad de que muevo para alla todas las versiones obsoletas y solo me queda la ultima, pero no me deshago de las anterior por precaución. Así luego de 1 año o más, cuando voy a buscar el ultimo reporte, no tengo que lidiar con una lista de versiones.

If using the date as file name I would start with year then month then day e.g. 2023 07 04

This is excellent! If you don't have revision control software, always have a folder for your source material, and copy that material out to work on it. So many people accidentally edit the source image.

You need git or related tools to tracking your project files states

One often overlooked aspect is a depreciation strategy. At some point documents may no longer be relevant, and one wants them out of sight of the normal document archive, while still being able to find them with relative ease.

These were "best practices" in 1989. The world needs to move from data categorization that is based on "where", to one that is based on "what". This means that categorization is only accessorily related to folder trees ; it should be primarily done via metadata, or emergent metadata extracted by modern search engines. This old way to do things is based on the concept of taxonomy ; information is not best done in a hierarchy but in a network.

a bit obnoxious to call your own preferred folder organization style as "Best Practices"

The best way to organize files is to study taxonomy and apply those principles to the structure.

I use random password generators for file naming. Every time I open a file, it's like a tiny surprise party or similar to the rush I get when hitting a good roll at the casino if the file is actually the one I'm looking for. I like to live under constant stimulation and stress, it helps me feel alive.

Any tip to do if I have a lot of audio files or video files? In my example I have like 30 audios of the same event. Any idea?

The underscore disables Windows search capability for file names.

I make a point of never using "final" in the file name: best way to jinx the project…😆

Habría que ver qué dice el paper pero yo creo que que la IA tiene memorizada la película y lo que prevee es el minuto que está viendo el ratón en base a la lectura de las ondas cerebrales

Ghent University Data Stewards - Excellent video. Maybe the best I’ve seen on folder / file organization. However, I disagree with you on some aspects of this. 1 - Folder Names and Structure - Don’t design your folder names around file attributes. That is what tags are for. Folder names should be “categories” of topics/objects/nouns. The structure should be hierarchical. - - - I do agree that the “categories” should not overlap. Some professional consulting firms have developed a concept / methodology for organizing information called MECE. It stands for mutually exclusive (ME - no overlap) and collectively exhaustive (CE - nothing overlooked). - - - If it appears that a file can logically fit into more than one folder, that’s a signal that either the hierarchical file structure needs to be changed or tags should be used. 2 - File Names - Don’t put dates in file names. If you do, files with common topics probably can’t be sorted and listed together. Windows and Mac operating systems create and maintain file “Create Dates”” and “Last Modified Dates”. If some other date (like “Due Date”) is important, add it as a tag (attribute) of the file. - - - Unquestionably, the best and most understandable / relatable file naming scheme is to make the names be specific cases of a topic/object/noun with are deeper in the hierarchy than the folder names.

Great video!

Amazing

Don't store all the information in the filename! Use metadata instead. This makes sorting, filtering and grouping much easier. Think of it as dynamic folders.

Thank you

The 90s called.

Seriously? You have to tell me the advantages to having an organized file system? Geesh, there was a reason I clicked on the this to begin with. Wonder what it was.
