This is a home for LIMS definitions for ANALYSIS codes that don't have another home. Included here are:

  • BHA
  • BIT
  • DRILLING
  • LATLONG
  • ORIGDEPTH

The tables show the LIMS table that the parameter comes from, its database name, and the "About" text that explains the meaning of the field.

SCALINPUTS. Deprecated. Mechanism for recording all the necessary inputs required for the implementation of (multiple) depth models. Superseded by reworking of depth modelling that culminated in a distinct X_SAMPLE_DEPTH table, and dedicated systems for modelling depth--X_SPLICE, X_AFFINE.
