LIMS Tables for Miscellaneous ANALYSIS Codes

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.

ORIGDEPTH

SAMPLE

x_length

Length (m): field for the length of a sample [as entered upon creation]

ORIGDEPTH

SAMPLE

x_length_cm

Length (cm): field for the length of a sample. This is a calculated field (length, converted to cm).

ORIGDEPTH

SAMPLE

status

Status: single-character code for the current status of a sample (e.g., active, canceled)

ORIGDEPTH

SAMPLE

old_status

Old status: single-character code for the previous status of a sample; used by the LIME program to restore a canceled sample

ORIGDEPTH

SAMPLE

original_sample

Original sample: field tying a sample below the CORE level to its parent HOLE sample

ORIGDEPTH

SAMPLE

parent_sample

Parent sample: the sample from which this sample was taken (e.g., for PWDR samples, this might be a SHLF or possibly another PWDR)

ORIGDEPTH

SAMPLE

standard

Standard: T/F field to differentiate between samples (standard=F) and QAQC standards (standard=T)

ORIGDEPTH

SAMPLE

login_by

Login by: username of account used to create the sample (can be the LIMS itself [e.g., SHLFs created when a SECT is created])

ORIGDEPTH

SAMPLE

login_date

Login date: creation date of the sample

ORIGDEPTH

SAMPLE

legacy

Legacy flag: T/F indicator for when a sample is from a previous expedition and is locked/uneditable on this expedition

ORIGDEPTH

TEST

test changed_on

TEST changed on: date/time stamp for a change to a test record.

ORIGDEPTH

TEST

test status

TEST status: single-character code for the current status of a test (e.g., active, in process, canceled)

ORIGDEPTH

TEST

test old_status

TEST old status: single-character code for the previous status of a test; used by the LIME program to restore a canceled test

ORIGDEPTH

TEST

test test_number

TEST test number: automatically generated database identifier for a test record. This is the primary key of the TEST table.

ORIGDEPTH

TEST

test date_received

TEST date received: date/time stamp for the creation of the test record.

ORIGDEPTH

TEST

test instrument

TEST instrument [instrument group]: field that describes the instrument group (most often this applies to loggers with multiple sensors); often obscure (e.g., user_input)

ORIGDEPTH

TEST

test analysis

TEST analysis: analysis code associated with this test (foreign key to the ANALYSIS table)

ORIGDEPTH

TEST

test x_project

TEST project: similar in scope to the expedition number, the difference being that the project is the current cruise, whereas expedition could refer to material/results obtained on previous cruises

ORIGDEPTH

TEST

test sample_number

TEST sample number: the sample_number of the sample to which this test record is attached; a foreign key to the SAMPLE table

ORIGDEPTH

CALCULATED

Top depth CSF-A (m)

Top depth CSF-A (m): position of observation expressed relative to the top of the hole.

ORIGDEPTH

CALCULATED

Bottom depth CSF-A (m)

Bottom depth CSF-A (m): position of observation expressed relative to the top of the hole.

ORIGDEPTH

CALCULATED

Top depth CSF-B (m)

Top depth [other] (m): position of observation expressed relative to the top of the hole. The location is presented in a scale selected by the science party or the report user.

ORIGDEPTH

CALCULATED

Bottom depth CSF-B (m)

Bottom depth [other] (m): position of observation expressed relative to the top of the hole. The location is presented in a scale selected by the science party or the report user.

ORIGDEPTH

RESULT

depth_meas_method

RESULT depth measurement method: method that the original depth was determined (e.g., tagged seafloor, offset, APC calculation)

ORIGDEPTH

RESULT

mean_vessel_draft (m)

RESULT mean vessel draft (m): average vessel draft during the coring period for this hole

ORIGDEPTH

RESULT

pdr (m)

RESULD pdr reading (m): average PDR 3.5 kHz echosounder reading of the ocean depth for the coring period for this hole

ORIGDEPTH

RESULT

prospectus_site_name

RESULT prospectus site name: site name from the prospectus (pre-expedition designation) (e.g., SATL-56B)

ORIGDEPTH

RESULT

ref_point

RESULT reference point: point of reference for the hole (e.g., seafloor). This component is not usually used

ORIGDEPTH

RESULT

seafloor_drf (m)

RESULT seafloor distance from rigfloor (m): distance from the rigfloor to the seafloor, calculated from water depth and draft

ORIGDEPTH

RESULT

unparented_depth (m)

RESULT unparented depth (m): a calculated hole depth field no longer used after Exp. 360, but legacy data may include it

 

ROUTING. Deprecated. Occasional evidence of this analysis still showing up in some types of record creation.

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.
