Reference to the directional survey used to convert the marker's MD to TVD.

Even though the field is optional, it should be thought of as mandatory for any marker with a TVD (because one would have been used to make the conversion). Because this information is often lost or the survey is unavailable in the context of a data transfer the field is left as optional.
