Excavation unit is a Class that defines artificial Site objects that divides the Archaeological object into smaller units. The Excavation unit is the Find unit's and Find's that facilitate a horizontal and vertical analysis of find distribution. The Excavation unit always belongs to an Archaeological object like for example Cultural layer.
The Excavation unit have two SubClasses:
Artificial
stratum - Excavation volumes that are connected and receive Orientation,
Size and Position from the Class Square.
The Square's Boundary is copied to the Excavation unit.
The Excavation unit has one required Field: Artificial stratum, the remaining properties are optional.
Excavation units are either measured or created in the Application.
|
Object |
Excavation unit the SubClass: Artificial stratum |
|
ObjectId |
Is generated from the Point's Point number |
|
Measurement code |
Example: |
|
GeoObject type |
1 - Point object. When the Artificial stratum is imported it automatically receives a copy of the referred Square's GeoObject as a Boundary (type 2) with the measured Point's Z-value (height). |

Class code in the Default template |
G (MetaId 12) |
|
SubClass designator in default metadata template |
Type - which means the Type of Excavation unit |
|
Object reference |
The ObjectId that identifies the Square (2000) |
|
Secondary reference |
1) to an ObjectId represents the Archaeological
object (17) |
|
Relations |
1,2) The contextual Relation is created between
the Excavation unit and the Square: |
|
Object |
Excavation unit the SubClass: Free formed stratum |
|
ObjectId |
Is generated from the Object's first Vertex Point number. |
|
Measurement code: |
Example: |
|
GeoObject type |
2 - Boundary / 6
- Sub boundary depending on strategy. |

Type - which means the Type of Excavation unit |
|
Object reference |
The ObjectId that identifies the Archaeological object (17) |
|
Secondary reference |
1) is the Attribute value (1A) that defines the Artificial stratum's Name which is stored in the Database (Artificial stratum must be specified as Default attribute). |
|
Relations |
1,2) a contextual Relation is created between the Excavation unit and the Archaeological object: |

If an Artificial stratum is created in the System it is usually created from the Square at which the Excavation unit receives the Square's Geometry and Z-value. We therefore recommend that the Excavation unit's Z-value is specified.
