The following can be specified on the Defaults tab.

 

Defaults

 

Project Type: This is used to select the default project type as georeferenced or local.

 

Elevation Type: This is used to select the type of elevation used when creating a new borehole. The elevation can be retrieved from the sensor on the device, off the Internet using Google, or not at all. The elevation can be overwritten when entering the borehole data.

 

Borehole Type: This is used to select the default borehole type.

 

Local Units: This is used to select the default units as feet or meters.

 

Lat/Long Display: This is used to select whether to specify the latitude and longitude as decimal degrees or degrees, minutes, and seconds when showing a point on the map.

 

Map Type: This is used to select the map type for georeferenced projects. It can be either satellite, roadmap, hybrid, or terrain.

 

Show Map: This is used to specify whether to show the map be default in georeferenced projects.

 

Initial Zoom Level: This is the initial zoom level when displaying project maps. It can be between 10 and 22. The lower the zoom level the more area will be displayed in the map. The default value is 20..The zoom level when displaying boreholes is one greater than the project zoom level.

 

Location Accuracy: This is the level of precision (in meters) by which the sensor locates the device geographically, relative to the geographical point at which the device is actually located. Tip: The higher the accuracy, the more time and power that the sensor requires to determine the location. The recommended value is Accuracy=0.

 

Location Distance: This specifies the minimum distance (in meters) by which the device must move in order to make the location sensor relocate the device and return new location information. For example, if you set Distance to "10", location sensor will trigger an event when you move "10 meters".

 

Style: This is used to select the default font style for the application. It can be either small, medium, or large.

 

Well Colors: This is used to select whether to display wells in color or not on the preview of the boring log.

 

Lithology Colors: This is used to select whether to display lithologies in color or not on the preview of the boring log.
