Boolean |
|
Boolean value to indicate whether the specified horizon notation system was the original notation system to describe the horizon.
-- Description --
This is to indicate whether the horizon notation has been determined in the field (or for derived soil profiles during the original derivation), or has been adapted, changed or assigned on the basis of the original horizon description later. This might be relevant for data quality information.
