How to enter Water Level Data
Use: The LogPlot Water Level datasheet is used to enter a depth to the top and base of an aquifer, aquifer name, and measurement date. You can list multiple depths for multiple aquifers for multiple dates, as shown in the example below.
This is a new datasheet for LogPlot8, for compatibility with RockWorks.
If you wish to insert symbols in the header or footer of the log, that is done within the Log Designer, using the Header/Footer Symbol tool.
See also the Symbol datasheet which offers raster ("interval") symbols as well as vector symbols, and the Point Symbol datasheet.
Corresponding log design component: Data listed in this datasheet will be plotted on the log in the Water Level column of the same name.
Corresponding RockWorks data table: Water Level (fully compatible)
Right-Click Options: When you right-click in the Water Level datasheet's cells, you have the following options:
Cut, Copy, Paste Insert/Append/Delete Rows Manipulate Columns Fill Interval Column Edit Data Page Name Delete Data Page Move
Automatic:
If there is already a Water Level column in the current log design to which you will be linking the data, you can use the Data | Update Data File from Log Design option to insert a new Water Level datasheet in the current data file. The program will know how to name the tab based on the log design information.
Manual:
Select the Data | New Data Page | Water Levels menu option to manually insert a Water Levels datasheet.
New Name: Type in the name to assign to the datasheet. LogPlot will use this name to match data to the column in the log design.
Click OK.
The program will add to the data file a Water Levels datasheet labeled with the selected name and with 4 blank columns: Depth to Top, Depth to Base, Aquifer Name, and Date.
Name: The name displayed on the datasheet tab is used to match the data to a particular Water Level column in the log design. This name is declared when you first create the data page (above) and can be edited using the Data | Edit Data Page Name option.
Top: In this column, list the depth to the water level.
Base: (optional) Here you can type in the depth to the base of the aquifer. If you are plotting a water level symbol only, this column is not required.
This column IS REQUIRED if you wish to post data to RockWorks and if you wish to represent the aquifer thickness with a filled bar symbol.Aquifer Name: (optional) Here you can define the name of the aquifer. This is not required for LogPlot.
This column IS REQUIRED if you wish to post data to RockWorks.Sample Date: (Optional) Here you can enter the measurement date. You can filter for specific dates at compile time. This field is not required for LogPlot.
This column IS REQUIRED if you wish to post the data to RockWorks.
