Enter Time-Based Interval or T-Data

The Borehole Manager T-Data (Time Intervals) table is used to enter measured, numeric values which were sampled at depth intervals (as opposed to single depth points) down the boreholes, and which were sampled at a particular date (and time). These data are similar to I-Data but with the added date component. The most obvious example of time-based data involves hydrochemistry in which a depth interval is sampled for a given suite of elements and/or compounds over a period of time.

The T-Data values can be typed in by hand, as described below, or imported from another source. You may leave this table blank if you have no time-based interval data.

! This table does not accept alphanumeric entries. It accepts numeric values only.

  1. Access the Borehole Manager program tab.
  2. Create a new borehole if necessary, or click on the existing borehole to be edited.
  3. Click on the T-Data tab for the well.

  4. Define the data columns if necessary: You can have multiple columns in this table, for your different T-Data components; use the T-Data Types button at the top of the table (or the Project Tables | Types Tables | T-Data Types item in the Project Manager) to define these. (More.)

Once you have the data columns defined, you can enter the measurements themselves. These instructions are for hand-entering the data; please see the links at the end of this topic for other options.

There is no limit to the number of downhole intervals that you may list for each drill hole.
