Question 97: We noticed that there are a lot of different values in the Det. Method fields for Elevation (Above Sea Level) and Elevation (Relative)—could we get those cleaned up? (IZ, INS, Fishes)

Description: IZ currently uses only “Collection Depth” and “Bottom Depth” in the relative elevation Det. Method. Elevation above sea level probably still needs cleanup.

Description: Fishes currently only has “approximate” and “Google Earth” as Det. Method for Elevation (Above Sea Level). Currently no values in Elevation Relative Det. Method field. Will Discuss with Fishes if additional methods should be used. (SM)

Response: Looks like the Determination Method lookup list had original been shared between the lat lon and mapping tabs. They have been separated but the lookup lists were not cleaned up.

Currently:

column name	Lookup list name
LatLatLongDetermination_tab	LatLong Determination Method
LocDeterminationMethodASL	Determination Method
LocDeterminationMethod	Determination Method

See: esites lookup lists

Once the collections that use it have added values that they need, Admins will cleanup the lookup list and lock the lookup list in the short term to Mgr groups
