When collecting field data for service locating, trimble access has an awesome feature of being able to input a vertical offset to denote the depth of a locating mark instead of adjusting the height of the gps pole. This value gets saved with in the point meta data that can be reviewed in TBC in the points list in the RTK vector. 

What smart text code can i use to reference this value as this would be an easy way to denote the depth of a service on a plan?

For service locating plans, I'd try to keep the depth value as its own attribute rather than baking it only into the point elevation. It also helps to record a few field notes with each located point: locator used, frequency, power mode, signal quality, and whether the mark came from a direct connection, clamp, sonde, or passive locate. That makes the data much easier to audit later in TBC.

This is a good example of the kind of transmitter spec where frequency and depth range would be worth logging with the field data: https://ucghdd.com/products/underground-magnetics-echo-50xf-transmitter
