Dear colleagues,

 

I am writing to ask for some advice on how I should define the stratigraphic levels for the SYNTHESYS+ Collections Digitisation Dashboard. I have attached an excel sheet with classification of Stratigraphy from the  ICEDIG project (sheet 1 in black ink) – I have added some categories in red – but I think there are too many to be filled in. Could Precambrian material be lumped together?

 

I would like to ask do we need that many categories really? – based on how earth science collections are categorised in institutions.

Do you have any insight into how Earth Science collections are classified?

 

I need to add a category for unknown.

 

In sheet two, CSIC Madrid has given an alternative classification.

 

I would be grateful for any feedback before the end of this week.

 

Best wishes

 

Laura
