Stratified sampling

Depth sampling with one sample per layer

At the same point, each layer becomes a sample with its own depth, horizon and result. On the report, the layers appear together and in order, so the profile can be compared.

What you'll find in this area

One sample per layer

Collect several samples at the same point, at different depths. Each layer is analyzed separately.

Profile templates

There are templates for agronomic soil (0-20 cm and 20-40 cm), environmental soil by horizon (O/A, B and C), water in a stratified column (surface, middle and bottom) and sediment cores. The laboratory can create and adjust templates.

Depth and horizon recorded

Start and end depth, unit, horizon and sequence are recorded on each layer.

Layer order kept

Each layer keeps its position in the profile, and the report shows the layers in that order.

Consolidated report for the point

The client receives the profile in one report, layer by layer, to compare the surface with the bottom.

Traceability per layer

Each layer has its own label, receipt, analysis and history.

Why the layers are kept apart

Mixing depths into a single sample hides the variation along the profile.

A result per layer

The value of each depth appears separately, instead of getting lost in the profile's average.

Comparison along the profile

With the layers apart, you can see where the parameter changes.

Brought together only on the report

The layers move through the operation separately and are brought together in the report's presentation.

Frequently asked questions

Does each depth become a separate sample?

Yes. Each layer is a sample, with its own label, analysis and history. The layers are brought together in the report's presentation.

Are there templates for my kind of sampling?

There are templates for agronomic soil, environmental soil by horizon, water in a stratified column and sediment cores, and the laboratory can create others. Confirm during the demo whether they fit your routine.

How does the system store each layer's depth?

With start and end depth, unit, horizon and sequence recorded on each layer.

Does the report show the layers together or separately?

Together, on the report for the point, layer by layer and in the order of the profile.
