<center><h2>Janet &amp; John document their cave - 1999 revision</h2>
Mostly by Wookey and Andy</center>
<h3>Introduction</h3>
<p>This part of the Expedition Handbook is about documentation - recording
what the expedition found for posterity and so future expeditions have
something to build upon. Mostly this means producing a good <b>survey</b> of
each cave, but it also includes writing <b>passage descriptions</b> and
taking <b>photographs</b>. Documenting old caves which are refound, and short
new caves is covered by the <a href="../look4.htm">Prospecting Guide</a>.
Taking photographs may one day be covered by a better expedition
<a href="../photo.htm">Photography Guide</a> than the current effort.
<b>This</b> guide covers essentially everything that goes in the <b>Survey
Book</b> on each expedition.
<p>For 1998, this screed was split up into digestible chunks. We
hope you will read all of it, but those who have been surveying before
may want to skip the introductory material, whilst others may not need
to read all of the more detailed topics.
