Spanish term or phrase: levantamiento de columna litológica
Hi, I'd appreciate your help with this term.

I have seen columna litológica is lithological column, but I'm having problems with "levantamiento"

Context:
"Supervisión por técnico superior experto acreditado en suelos contaminados de la ejecución de 4 sondeos mecánicos hasta 4 metros de profundidad y 3 sondeos mecánicos hasta 9 m de profundidad, según los criterios establecidos en la Norma UNE-EN ISO/IEC 17020 incluyendo el levantamiento de la columna litológica, toma de muestras y obtención de datos en campo."

Thanks :)
