QA function - test for duplicate lat/long values #8

Closed mlonneman closed 5 years ago

There is the potential to have duplicated cores entered from different data releases - they may have the same lat/long values but different core IDs, thus evading detection from the unique core ID QA function.

Similar to the unique core ID function, we need a function that will test whether lat/long values are identical for any set of cores. Additionally, could create a small +/- on the lat/long to check if any are unreasonably close and need further investigation.

It is done - added to the QA/QC functions script and called in the data join script.
