# Adding a Layer Group

Layer groups allow you to organize project layers in a clearer and more structured way, according to various criteria such as theme (sewer network, transportation, regulations, etc.), period (current year, historical, etc.), or any other organizational need.

**To add a layer group to the project:**

1. Click <img src="/files/0INnG3lm0OdLAD9VpXaX" alt="" data-size="line"> **Add group**. A new group named *Layer Group* appears in the **Layers** section.
2. Double-click the group name to edit it. Click each language tab to enter the name in the supported languages.
3. Select a layer to add to the group.
4. Click the layer's drag icon <img src="/files/GR4EyGIl9vTZcyttE4kW" alt="" data-size="line">, then drag and drop it into the desired group. When you pause over a group, it opens automatically.
