1. Read the text on the Begin tab then press the right facing red arrow to move to the Site tab
2. Choose a Site from the list. Press the right facing red arrow to move to the Location tab.
3. Press the Add button. A new row will be inserted and some default text will be displayed (eg. ‘Type Location Name’). Replace the default text with your own location name. From the Location Type drop down list, choose what type of location this is. If the Location Type you desire is not present, press the Loc Types button to edit and manage the list of available location types. Press the right facing red arrow when finished.
Optional – If you have more than one location that is very closely related to this location (eg. a second borehole a few meters away), you can press the Add button again to start a location group. This would be appropriate, for example, if the geology was recorded for only one of these two locations. When you add a second location an additional check box is added to the form so you can choose which of the locations is the main or master location. In the borehole example, this would be the one with the recorded geology.
4. Press the Add button. A new row will be inserted and some default text will be displayed. Edit the default text with the interval name that you wish to use. Select from the Interval Type drop down list the type of data that will be monitored by this interval (eg. Groundwater Monitor). If the interval type you wish to use is not in the list, press the Int Types button to edit/manage interval types. Add as many intervals as is necessary and for each, make sure it associated with the correct location.
5. Press the Add Location button. Doing so will add your new location to the database. After the location has been successfully added, you will be prompted as to whether you want to edit the details (eg. coordinates, geology etc) now or later. Proceed as desired.
