Interbedded Rock Lithology #4
Comments
HI Scott - |
Dan do you have an example for this? |
Catching up on loose threads - here is an example snippet of a lithologyObservation for a layer that overall is composed of 75% clay and 25% sand that is interbedded within the clay:
The character of the component lithology is defined in the association attribute of the ComponentLithology object and comes from an enumerated list. Current enumerations in the list are:
You would use component lithology(ies) to indicate a layer of interbedded lithology where the specific location(s) or depths of the interbeds are not important to record. If the locations of interbeds are important, then these beds should be encoded within their own separate layers (eg LithologyObservation) where you can define the location of each bed. |
We are curious as to how the componentlithology object is meant to be used. We have a scenario where you have interbedded rock and people describe the larger component of rock as a record and then they have a 1:1 (or theoretically 1:M) child of the lithology that is the interbedded material that has a smaller percentage of the rock mass. So for example, you might have data like this. I am assuming the parent record would be the primaryLithology. The interbedded record would be the ComponentLithology. Is that correct? Do you have an example that illustrates this?
