| Description: | This list relates to the 'Event Type' unit in MIDAS. It covers both investigative, data-gathering activities which involve a physical intervention in the site and survey events, ie those data-gathering events which do not have a damaging effect on the resource. The list derives from discussion within ALGAO during 1998-9, following the introduction of the Monument / Event data model for SMRs as part of the ExeGesIS SDM software for SMRs in March 1998. The Data Standards Unit at English Heritage has added scope notes and standardised some of the terms (e.g. to adopt noun phrases such as "soil sample" as opposed to "soil sampling" in line with British Standards). | |||
