<h2>Great, I have discovered a new cave...</h2>
|
|
<p>So, you have staggered off the plateau with a fist-full of notes and surveys,
|
|
and you want to let the world know of your massive discovery.
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>If you have not yet learned how to record your prospecting and survey
|
|
your leads, read the
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="../look4.htm">prospecting introduction</a> and
|
|
<li><a href="../survey/index.htm">survey handbook</a> which tells you how to record
|
|
survey information in your waterproof notebook. But first you should read the
|
|
<li><a href="/expofiles/presentations/cave_surveying_20130626.pdf">
|
|
Cave Surveying training course slidepack</a>.

This page outlines step 1 of the survey production process. Each step is documented separately.<br />

<h2>Process</h2>
|
|
<p>After 40 years or so, we have a well-defined process which you will need to learn.
|
|
Read <em>all</em> this list first, then follow
|
|
the instructions section by section which tell you how to
|
|
actually do these things.
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Write up your trip in the <a href="../logbooks.html">logbook</a> including rigging sketches<br /><br />
|
|
<li>Put notes in a new wallet
|
|
<li>If it is a new cave, fill out a paper New Cave form
|
|
<li>Scan the notes (see <a href="newwallet.html#onlinew">"new wallet"</a> for the filenames to use and <a href="newwallet.html#scan">how to use the scanner</a>)
|
|
<li>Type in survey data (in <a href="newsurvex.html#rightplace">the right place</a> in the file system) in survex format.<br />
|
|
(This includes passage descriptions and open leads known as QMs: Question Marks).
|
|
<li>Run survex to create a centre-line printout (online in a browser or on your computer)
|
|
<li>Transcribe your sketches onto centre-line paper
|
|
<li>Scan your centre-lined sketches
|
|
<li>Use therion or tunnel to digitise your centre-line sketches
|
|
<li>Connect your survey to the surveys of other caves by fixing the entrance location.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>and either later or at the same time, you will be doing these other tasks
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Upload your <a href="../computing/gpxupload.html">GPS track</a> to the cave and file photos of the entrance
|
|
<li>Create a new folder in the file system for the wallet data (automatic when using the Upload form)
|
|
<li>Create a new folder in the file system for the survex data (automatic when using the online survex edit form)
|
|
<li>Create a "new cave entry" for the guidebook description
|
|
<li>Write the <b>full cave description</b> into the correct html files.
|
|
(This will mean copying the passage descriptions from the survex files.)
|
|
<li>Update the index tick boxes on paper in the wallets lever-arch file in the potato hut: as your wallet progresses through this process
|
|
<li>Update the online record of those tick boxes using the online form, e.g. for <a href="/walletedit/2022:01">wallet 2022#01</a>
|
|
<li>Check the online list of outstanding survey tasks for all the wallets for the current year: <a href="wallets/year/2022">2022</a>.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>This documentation assumes that you have recorded your survey data in
|
|
a waterproof paper notebook. If instead you are using a PDA to record the survey readings
|
|
digitally for your first cave, don't. Use the paper process first, then when you are familiar
|
|
the overall process, look at the <a href="pdanotes.html">PDA additional notes</a>.
