Terrestrial Ecosystem Information Project Details Table (TEI_Project_Details)

TEI_Project_Details is the authoritative provincial data for TEI project metadata by BAPID. It contains attributes describing each project (project level metadata), plus links to the locations of other data associated with the project (e.g., reports, polygon datasets, plot files, legends). TEIS_Project_Boundaries is derived in part from this table. TEI inventories describe the physical and biological attributes of ecosystems.

Table created 3/21/2011.This feature class is of type TABLE, and is projected to Unknown.

There are 4142 FGDB bytes, and 4113 SDE Bytes per row.

Table of Contents

Business Area Project ID (BAPID)

Item MetaData ID 18 (Report Item 1)

contains a numeric project identifier assigned by the Ministry of Environment, Ecosystem Information Section. The project BAPID is used to identify all information relating to a project and is the unique identifier (PK) for the project and is the linking key used to join or relate other TEIS data sets such as the TEIS Polygon Attribute. Examples include: 1234.

It is unknown when this item was added. This item should be INDEXED, and is MANDATORY. COMMENTS: must correspond with Project boundary feature class
