# 2. Data Import

After the [Job details](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/project-setup/build-jobs/1.-job-details) are saved in [Job Details](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/project-setup/build-jobs/1.-job-details) step, the user can proceed to the *New Import* tab on the left navigation to start importing data.

## Data Upload

It is necessary to arrange the data in the tool ingestible format. View [how to pre-process data](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/project-setup/pre-process-data) before you upload the data using the [S3 Bucket](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/pre-process-data#id-3.-data-storage).

## Data Grouping

Define the limit of [frames](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/pre-process-data#frame) that will get loaded in the form of [batches](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/pre-process-data#batch) for the SME (subject matter expert) using the *annotation tool*. This can be done by selecting one of the two options:

### A. Group by Folder &#x20;

The [frames](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/pre-process-data#frame) will load as a single [batch](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/pre-process-data#batch) based on the data folders created during [data segregation](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/pre-process-data#id-2.-segregate-data-in-folder-s).  For example, if the *data folder* uploaded has 1 folder with 100 frames data, 1 batch is created with 100 frames.

### B. Group with Limit

The number of [frames](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/pre-process-data#frame) that will load within a [batch](https://docs.imerit-prod.io/pre-process-data#batch) is based on the desired limit set. For example, if the *data folder* uploaded has 1 folder with 100 frames data, and the batch limit is set to 30, the task delegation platform will create 3 batches of 30 frames each and 1 batch of 10 frames.
