Program Changes Requested/Identified

These are not bugs. Report bugs on the Bugs Page page.

Changes to do

  1. The designation in the identification section should be a drop down that equates to what the locus actually "is" See MPP list of types under "Stratigraphy". Dropdown menus in the levels should be taken from "Designation".
  2. The "Location" field in many parts of the Identification section should be a reference to a point taken with the total station. Fix the "text" and check the type. For this summer, we are not including this except that individuals can enter a comma separated list of point numbers.

Eminent Future Things

  1. Add ownership properties to the database and write the synch framework so that we only push owned changes and prevent changes to un-owned data.
  2. Add Master / local connections (see Dr. A's Visio chart)

Far future things to address

Object Addition

There is currently no field in the object to identify what the object actually is except the remarks column. It would probably be better if this was changed to include a parent table of types and a type identifier.


The location part is a problem because of scale The MPP manual has 6 for a 5x5+2 bulks, and that didn't scale to our 4x4 with 2 bulks. Location key is not used, so take out the location key. But we'll keep location and use it as just a general description of the location in cardinal points i.e. NW, N, NE, .... So take
