Longitude: For a geographic coordinate system this is the longitude in either degrees, minutes, and seconds or decimal degrees.

 

Latitude: For a geographic coordinate system this is the latitude in either degrees, minutes, and seconds or decimal degrees.

 

Easting: For a projected coordinate system this is the x coordinate in map units.

 

Northing: For a projected coordinate system this is the y coordinate in map units.

 

Local Coordinates

 

Local X-Coordinate: This is the x coordinate in local units. If the project is georeferenced the local coordinates are calculated automatically.

 

Local Y-Coordinate: This is the y coordinate in local units.  If the project is georeferenced the local coordinates are calculated automatically

 

Associated Boring/Well

 

Boring/Well Name: If the station is associated with a boring or well, it can be linked to the station. If a boring or well has been linked to the station it can be opened in the WinLoG module by clicking on the Open button.
