And thanks to Kevin Dixon for reminding me.
You can find much of relevance to Therion within the Survex Manual. There
is a link to it on the front page of the Therion wiki.
Search the Survex manual for "flags" and you will learn more.

Here are some examples of various 'flags' usage, for shot flags, not to be
confused with station flags. They are a survey property, not so much a
drawing property.
Approximate and duplicate:

<https://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/extend?s%5b%5d=flags#summary_of_all_extend_o
ptions_for_survey_centrelines> and scroll down to the code below "Creating
links between separate caves that are close to each other". That one is a
bit oddball, not typical usage.

<https://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/metapost?s%5b%5d=flags#general_symbol_exampl

And, um, yes, there is not too much on actual usage examples for flags
surface. Here is a snippet from my last Sunday's survey efforts. A short
cave that required three ptopo files to adequately capture it. It is part
of a survey loop that goes out of one entrance and into another.

The total survey length (surface + cave + duplicate) is 140m, and 9m of it
is on the surface. There is also 3m of survey in there that is duplicated
(happens to be a nosurvey "shot" for a visual-only connection established at
the whole-cave level of survey.

Bruce, I have never used flags. I have just been though the Therion book and
wiki for information but for clarification could you post an example of
surface flag use please.
Thanks.

> The override below is to change the Therion default team, cave length,
cave depth data on the map output. Used in this case because a short surface
survey needed to be shown on the map but the data was skewing the actual
cave length and depth.
I'm not sure that is a very good way to deal with the issue.
In the screenshot below I have a surface survey shown (green dots),
designated surface by use of 'flags surface', 'flags not surface'
interleaved with the survey data as appropriate. No need to fudge the cave
length or depth because Therion does not include surface data in the cave
length.
There is some complexity around it, but you can show or hide the cave and
surface centrelines using;
symbol-show group surface-centreline
symbol-hide group cave-centreline
