DrillHoles generates drillholes in the drawing that are required
to run strata surface application routines. Each drillhole consists of
a surface elevation, strata, and optional
description(s). Every
strata has a name, bottom elevation, thickness. Within a drillhole, the
strata names must be unique, but each real-world strata should have the
same strata name across all the drillholes. This is because strata
surface applications connects together the strata with the same name.
