|
|
This following worksheets outline the parameters that are currently planned for inclusion in WOVOdat |
|
|
Worksheet Name |
Individual worksheets to follow: |
|
|
Volcano |
Volcano characteristics that remain more or less constant |
Eruption |
Eruption and eruptive phase characteristics |
Seismic |
Seismic unrest, mostly catalog data |
Geodetic |
Geodetic changes (including GPS, EDM, tilt, strainmeter, InSAR) |
Thermal |
Thermal changes (including spot measurements, heat flux, thermal images) |
Hydro |
Water well levels, spring discharge, Temp, pH, and chemical analyses of waters |
Gas |
Gas flux, gas ratios, chemical analyses of the gas |
PotentialFields |
Gravity, magnetic, and electrical data |
Inferred process |
Processes suggested by previous workers. These are NOT established facts; just prior interpretations |
AdditionalTables |
Reference, contacts, and a standard instrument table |
|
|
|
Each worksheet will include: |
|
|
Attribute |
The attribute name as it will appear in the database (see naming convention below) |
Attribute name |
The anticipated data field name (some will be lightly populated) |

A description of the attribute |
Format |
units or other format information - all numbers expressed as decimals are stored as float in the database. The units here show the format for how data should be entered into the database. |
