@@@ To be renamed ''Split and Compare Surveys By Attributes'' or maybe "Divide ...". A suggestion is to try this function with Badger Springs using General.Age as the dividing parameter. If multiple sites are selected, the data from each survey is analyzed separately. It would be more useful to combine all surveys and split the data once by the selected attribute set. This function is similar to CompareSurveysByAttributes but has an additional feature. It splits the elements within a survey by the attributes of a selected attribute set. The intended usage is to compare older/younger elements within a survey. To start, a list of all ''exclusive'' choice attribute sets are displayed. Choose any set, the usual choice is ''General.Age''. attachment:ScreenShots/SliceAndCompare.jpg Next, a list of all surveys is presented. Under the ''Nbr Choices'' column is the number of values each survey has for the selected attribute set. In this case, Badger Springs elements have 3 different values in General.Age. You may select one or more surveys. attachment:ScreenShots/SliceAndCompare2.jpg Next, a list of element classes is presented together with the counts for each class. Note that any elements that do not have a selection in the selected attribute set are not included in the counts. Select a class and click the ''Analyze Attributes'' button. attachment:ScreenShots/SliceAndCompare3.jpg Two reports appear on the next page: Common Attributes and Unique Attributes. The Common Attributes report shows how common each of the selected class attributes are when the selected surveys are ''sliced'' by the selected attribute set. Click on any attribute hyper-link to view images of the elements. The Unique Attributes report shows the same attributes present in the ''Common to 1 of x'' portion of the Common Attributes report, but here the attributes are ''sliced'' by the selected attribute set. attachment:ScreenShots/SliceAndCompare4a.jpg attachment:ScreenShots/SliceAndCompare4b.jpg The screenshot below is an example resulting from clicking on a hyper-link in the Common Attributes report. attachment:ScreenShots/SliceAndCompare5.jpg |

Slice and Compare Surveys By Attributes
Objective
The Slice and Compare Surveys by Attribute function is similar to Compare Surveys By Attributes with one additional feature. It first splits the elements within one or more surveys into groups using the attributes of a selected attribute set. These groups of elements are then analyzed for attributes that are common to multiple groups or unique to a single group.
The usage of this function is expected to be infrequent. For some surveys, it may be possible to split the elements into groups based upon an age or age guess attribute, and then compare the groups of elements to determine if there are unique attributes based upon the age of elements.
Processing
The first page displays a list General and Rock Art Class Specific exclusive attributes. Select an attribute set by clicking on an attribute set.
Hyperlinks include: Area (see ShowMaps).
To continue, click the Submit button.
The third page displays the number of elements by rock art class. Select one or more rock art classes by clicking on the corresponding check boxes or none to select all the rock art classes.To continue, click on Analyze Attributes.
The fourth page displays two tables: "Common Attributes" and "Unique Attributes". The "Common Attributes" table displays the attributes common to 2 or more elements from the selected rock art class with the matching attribute selection. The "Unique Attributes" table displays by the attribute set selection, attributes that are unique to the elements from the selected rock art class.Hyperlinks include: Element ID, Cluster, Panel, Element (see ElementCaptions), Prior, Next, Prior Page, Next Page (see PageNumbers).
