| In the section ''Description of the queriable fields'' find a description of all parameters and their meaning. For the laboratory courses (basically) only these are required: | In the section ''Description of the queriable fields'' a description of all parameters and their meaning can be found. For the laboratory courses (basically) only the following four parameters are of interest: |
| * sptypes | * sptypes |
| * otypes | * otypes |
