This seems to be a practice very common in the US but in Europe most cavers
structure the data in a way in which each survey represents a certain
passage. The structure of the data represents the topology of the cave and
this is the way how the survey editor of software like Cave Render or
Toporobot works.
Data recorded at one particular instance only reflect how persevering the
surveying team was.
