We have released Lab Order as a new feature in Field Manager😍 . Please try it out and let us know what you think☺  : 

• Find your samples for each depth at all locations in the table
• Filter the table as needed
• Add columns for the tests you need
• Add remarks to each test if needed
• Choose which tests to add to each sample
• Batch add routine opening or specific tests to several samples
• Save your changes
• Export lab order to excel

There's a lot being released this week: most are changes or improvements to existing functionality. Please note the breaking change in our API!

Breaking ChangeChange 

• We have removed the `location_type_id` attribute from the Location model. The attribute is no longer used and removed from all endpoints and return types.

What's NewNew :

• The map settings drawer now retains its state, providing a smoother user experience when toggling or navigating away and we moved settings cogwheel from the header into individual sections for easier access.

ImprovementsImprovement :

• Introduced location-based zoom for onshore areas.
• Optimized marker layer rendering for projects with over 2,000 locations by delaying loading.
• Only markers within the visible map extent (with a buffer) are now rendered, improving performance for large projects.

ChangesChange :

• Improved compatibility by supporting the old format of PRV files that lack the A43 marker.
• Upgraded to the latest SND parser, which now treats piezometer code PP as equivalent to PZ in GVR files.

FixesFix :

• Updated TOT plot scaling for the x-axis to conform with the NGF standard for penetration force.
• Capped penetration force at 30 kN for TOT plots to align with standards.
• Resolved issues where SVT plots were generated without data.

✨ We're proud to announce that we will soon launch our cross section feature in Field Manager✨:

We are contiuing the improvement on the method cardsImprovement :

• Added possibility to change status as a dropdown on the method card. Changing status has been removed from "edit method".
  

• Set a method to "voided" by single click on method card:
  

New API-functionalityNew :

• It is now possible to change filenames through the API. 

Some minor, but important updates this release. We are making changes for easier import of historical projects into Field Manager. 

Bug fixes:Fix 

• Fix a problem with organization administrators not being able to delete projects.
• Fix invalid query parameters 'project_id' and 'organization_id' in openapi/swagger
• Fix a crash importing SND files. We wrongly read any number greater than 100 as a method code and then crashed for some SND files.
• RCD plot depth scale fixed

Changes:Change  

• Reading GVR, SND and VB files now ignore any problems with the date in the header. 
• Reading PZ data from GVR files, now matches more header codes.

New:New 

• Added support for reading Permeability Test (PT) files as placeholder from SND files

New 

• It is now possible to batch delete projects on the landing page or delete project in "project settings".
• We've created a toggle for show/hide all comments on the method card.
• On-blur edit for sample details, meaning you can now add, remove or change data directly on the method card.

Change 

• API: We have made the "location_type_id" optional. The attribute will be removed completely in about a week.
• Method Card: We have removed the "Retrieved" column from the Sample method

Fix 

Bug fixes this week: 

• Redefined PlotOptions to resolve pydantic warning/error.
• Support non-standard SGF method codes for 71 (SRS/Jb2), 72 (SRS/Jb3) and 9 (DP SH B) importing SGF files.
• Fix a problem deleting files from a project when it is attached to a deleted location or method.
• Ignore error from blob storage when trying to delete a non-existing file.
• Scaling mode is set according to plot options.

New

• Set and remove a project as you personal favourite project on the landing page.
• New endpoint for doing a batch delete of project files `DELETE /projects/{project_id}/files`.

Change

• When an organisation admin creates a new project they are not made project admin by default anymore. 

Fix 

• Show missing drilling information for methods with conducted and approved status.

Big release this time!

Improvement 

As part of our ongoing lab data improvement, we have upgraded how you can add, view and handle samples in Field Manager :

• Add a series of samples in a location
• Choose your sample interval and starting depth
• Set sampling technique and container type, e.g. "piston sample and tube"
• Add container ID for handling in the lab
• Add material (clay, sand, silt, etc.)
• See what samples have been retrieved and which ones are voided
• Edit samples in batch
• Add comments to each sample

Improvement 

We have upgraded the method card:

• More compact visually and easier to read.
• More intuitive handling when you have more than one method in a location.

New 

New Project Standard :

• The project "standard" (NGF, SGF, IOGP or Offshore Wind) is created so that users in a project will only see what's relevant for them.
• Organization admins can add relevant project standards for their organizations as well as set the default standard for their organization
• Project admins can change the project standard for their project.
• Symbols are connected to a project standard so that an IOGP project will have symbols different from those of NGF.
• Plots for Dynamic Probing (DP) and Weight Sounding Test (WST)

Fix 

• Fix a bug when trying batch add methods of different types to a location.
• Fix a bug when adding a linked project to a second project, then the first link was removed.
• Fix missing Core Drilling (CD) data in the map. CD methods should now show correctly on the map.
• Fix a typo in `location_url` in the result from the endpoint `GET /projects/{project_id}/gis/onshore` (missing an`s` in the `locations` part).

Bug fix:

• Added conducted at on the location summary sql fetch: Fixes the filtering on "conducted date".
