Data in the Borings table typically relate the field notes from the geologist that logged the hole. They are frequently detailed and describe multiple soil units that are at field scale might be considered to be portions of a single hydrogeologic unit. The Stratigraphy table contains an interpreted description of the hydrogeologic units. 3d geologic models, 3d fence diagrams and 2d geologic models on profiles are all generated using Stratigraphy data. EnviroInsite, at present, does not generate plots that correlate units between data compiled in the Borings table. There are several simple rules you must be aware of in entering Stratigraphy data.
