A platform is a geometric arrangement of receivers and optionally asource that that are in fixed position relative to each other, and where the entiregeometric arrangement moves together for the survey. Platforms are also used where areceiver or receiver configuration moves continuously and where measurements aretaken at discrete time intervals. Examples of geophysical methods that use platformsare: GPR, magnetic surveys on moving platforms (aeromag), marine seismic, boreholeseismic.
Database handle for the object. It is of XML type ID, so is constrained to beunique in the XML document within which it occurs. An external identifier for the object inthe form of a URI may be constructed using standard XML and XPointer methods. This is doneby concatenating the URI for the document, a fragment separator, and the value of the idattribute.
