Object Description
Object Name: WHSE_LAND_AND_NATURAL_RESOURCE.PROT_PSTA_HEAD_FIRE_INTNSTY_SP
Short Name: PROTPSTAHE
Comments: Provincial Strategic Threat Analysis (PSTA) head fire intensity (HFI) represents the final classification scheme (90th percentile weather). The layer was chosen to represent accepted fire intensity thresholds (in kW/m) associated with suppression difficulty, along with some additional classes added to further discriminate between intensity levels at the high end (i.e., crown fires).
Column Name | Short Name | Data Type | Data Precision | Comments |
---|---|---|---|---|
PROT_PHFI_SYSID | PRT_PHF_SD | NUMBER | 10 | PROT_PHFI_SYSID is a system generated unique identification number. |
HFI_CLASS | HFI_CLASS | NUMBER | 5 | A class value signifying the head fire intensity rating from low to extreme. These values directly relate to the text description in the HFI Class Range field, i.e., -3 (No Data (Private Land)), -2 (No Data (Private Managed Forest Land)), -1 (Water), 0 (No Impact), 1 (Low), 2 (Low), 3 (Low), 4 (Moderate), 5 (Moderate), 6 (Moderate), 7 (High), 8 (High), 9 (Extreme), 10 (Exteme). |
HFI_CLASS_RANGE | HFI_CL_RNG | VARCHAR2 | 50 | Textual descriptions of the class range field signifying the head fire intensity rating from low to extreme, i.e., No Data (Private Land), No Data (Private Managed Forest Land), Water, No Impact , Low, Moderate, High, Extreme. |
FEATURE_AREA_SQM | FEAT_AREA | NUMBER | 19 | FEATURE_AREA_SQM is the system calculated area of a two-dimensional polygon in square meters. |
FEATURE_LENGTH_M | FEAT_LEN | NUMBER | 19 | FEATURE_LENGTH_M is the system calculated length or perimeter of a geometry in meters. |
SHAPE | SHAPE | SDO_GEOMETRY | 1 | SHAPE is the column used to reference the spatial coordinates defining the feature. |
OBJECTID | OBJECTID | NUMBER | 38 | OBJECTID is a column required by spatial layers that interact with ESRI ArcSDE. It is populated with unique values automatically by SDE. |
SE_ANNO_CAD_DATA | BLOB | 4000 | SE_ANNO_CAD_DATA is a binary column used by spatial tools to store annotation, curve features and CAD data when using the SDO_GEOMETRY storage data type. |
