A product will come in one of the four following types:

| Types               | Definitions                                                                                                    |
| ------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **FOLDER\_PRODUCT** | These products are used to organize products into logical hierarchies in the DisasterAWARE client application. |
| **FILE\_PRODUCT**   | Products of this type have an associated multi-media file e.g. PDF, Word Document, associated with them.       |
| **TEXT\_PRODUCT**   | These products have a text field that contains a message.                                                      |
| **URL\_PRODUCT**    | These products are hyperlinks to external resources e.g. a web page.                                           |
