The database can store multiple interpretations for each borehole and properties assigned to each coded lithological unit. Available borehole geology properties include porosity, Munsell colour, grain size, water struck, etc, and other valid property types can be included if required.

The Date of creation given is the first date recorded in the database and is the date a pre-existing database was created. Data content varies from record to record. As borehole drilling is an ongoing activity, the database contains only a subset of all potential data. Logically consistent, according to allowable differences of coding detail.
