User-Friendly Online Tool to Build a Survey Mark Description File
Start a Description File (SDF) is a web page that is designed to help users jumpstart the process of creating a simple mark description file. The mobile-friendly web form allows the user to identify marks already in the NGS database, and populate the description file with metadata taken from the database. For new marks, the form facilitates the building of the description file by prompting the user for the necessary metadata inputs. The tool outputs a file in a format that can be loaded into WinDesc for final processing and QA/QC. This product is designed with OPUS Projects users in mind, but is useful for anyone who creates description files.
This is not a web implementation or replacement of WinDesc but is intended as a stop-gap measure to make WinDesc easier to use, until there is a replacement.
