Data processing guidelines in Avantage
- Use one processing grid to hold all spectra to be fitted.
- Each processing grid has a peak table that holds all the peaks for each level. Making depth profiles cannot be made across processing grids. Survey spectra must be kept in separate grids - if not the peak table of the survey spectrum will get mixed with the high resolution spectra.
- Do not mix snapshot and scanned spectra in processing grid
- Rename depth profiles
