horizon prefix and suffix #5

Open meganrwong opened 2 years ago

meganrwong commented 2 years ago

prefix and suffix into one result/one column of data against obsv property “horizon classification” This requires a vocab for eg for “B22k”

Does each prefix suffix combination need to be created?

Is this the same as #3 ?

ljgregory commented 2 years ago

I think this is the same as 5. It's very tricky! The designated master can be made of all components or just horizon. I think it goes like this "Prefix|Horizon|SubDivision|Suffix" unless your suffix is "p", then this goes before the subdivision. We should consult further, because it is complex, you can even have multiple suffixes. Also, when there are discontinuities, the first lithology has no prefix, but thereafter, the horizons are given prefixes. I think the pattern can be coded, but the list would be endless. But I am not an expert here.
