Data Entry
On the Data Entry tab, you can change the default settings that are automatically loaded on data entry pages (i.e., Projects, Test Holes). These data entry settings include:
FOR NEW PROJECTS
- Unit System: Determines the depth unit used in the program. Choose between Imperial (feet) and Metric (metres).
- Coordinate System: Used to specify the coordinate system for project and borehole locations. Choose from Geographic (WGS84), UTM, and Local.
- Site UTM Zone: If UTM is used as coordinate system for a project, the UTM zone (letter & number) need to be specified.
FOR NEW TEST HOLES
- Select the default Sample Type assigned to a new sample
- Select the default Field Test Type when adding field test data
- Select the default Drill Method when a test hole is created
SPT REFUSAL
During data entry for Standard Penetration Test (i.e. SPT blow counts) or Dynamic Cone Penetration Test (i.e. DCPT blow counts), if the number of blow counts is entered in 'refusal' format (e.g. 35/3", 40/5 REF"), this blow count will be used for SPT analysis and for drawing the blow counts graph in the test hole log.
SAMPLE DATA
Using this feature you can import projects or templates if you accidentally deleted them from your account
