NAME

Bio::Chado::Schema::NaturalDiversity::NdGeolocation

DESCRIPTION

The geo-referencable location of the stock. NOTE: This entity is subject to change as a more general and possibly more OpenGIS-compliant geolocation module may be introduced into Chado.

ACCESSORS

nd_geolocation_id

  data_type: 'integer'
  is_auto_increment: 1
  is_nullable: 0
  sequence: 'nd_geolocation_nd_geolocation_id_seq'

description

  data_type: 'varchar'
  is_nullable: 1
  size: 255

A textual representation of the location, if this is the original georeference. Optional if the original georeference is available in lat/long coordinates.

latitude

  data_type: 'real'
  is_nullable: 1

The decimal latitude coordinate of the georeference, using positive and negative sign to indicate N and S, respectively.

longitude

  data_type: 'real'
  is_nullable: 1

The decimal longitude coordinate of the georeference, using positive and negative sign to indicate E and W, respectively.

geodetic_datum

  data_type: 'varchar'
  is_nullable: 1
  size: 32

The geodetic system on which the geo-reference coordinates are based. For geo-references measured between 1984 and 2010, this will typically be WGS84.

altitude

  data_type: 'real'
  is_nullable: 1

The altitude (elevation) of the location in meters. If the altitude is only known as a range, this is the average, and altitude_dev will hold half of the width of the range.
