avstrat (version 0.1.1)

example_data_indiv: Example stratigraphic data from individual tables

Description

A dataset created by loading example inputs with load_stratdata_indiv(). This demonstrates the structure of stratigraphic data when stations, sections, layers, and samples are provided as separate tables and then merged. It shares many column definitions with example_data_strat but contains a reduced set of fields.

Usage

example_data_indiv

Arguments

Format

example_data_indiv

A data frame with 244 rows and 23 columns:

stratlayer_desc

Character. Free‑text description of the layer.

stratlayer_order

Integer. Order of the layer within the section.

thickness_units

Character. Units for thickness (e.g., "millimeters", "centimeters", "meters").

thickness_typical

Numeric. Typical thickness of the layer.

thickness_min

Numeric. Minimum thickness of the layer.

thickness_max

Numeric. Maximum thickness of the layer.

stratlayer_color

Character. Color description.

grainsize_top

Numeric/Character. Grain size at the top of the layer.

grainsize_bottom
