Bioterrain Mapping (TBT) Detailed Polygons with Short Attribute Table Spatial View

Bioterrain Mapping (TBT) Detailed Polygons (STE_TER_BIOTERRAIN_POLYS_SVW) contains TBT polygons with key and amalgamated (concatenated) attributes derived from the Resource Inventory Standards Committee (RISC) standard attributes. This layer is derived from the STE_TEI_ATTRIBUTE_POLYS_SP layer by filtering on the PROJECT_TYPE attribute. Project types include: TEM, TEMNSS, TEMPRE, TEMSEI, TEMSET, TEMTSM, TBS, TBT, TEMWHR, TEMSDM, TEMPRW, and PEMTBT. TBT divides the landscape into units using the Terrain Classification System for British Columbia and ecological criteria. Polygon attributes include (but are not limited to) surficial material, surface expression, geomorphological processes, drainage class and aspect. TBT methods include manual air photo interpretation supported by selective field checking. Bioterrain mapping is integral to ecosystem mapping and its derivative products. TBT Detailed Polygon layer should be used in conjunction with TER Project Boundaries which contain boundaries (study areas) and attributes describing each project (project level metadata), plus links to the locations of other data associated with the project (e.g., reports, polygon datasets, plotfiles, legends). TBT inventory polygons with full RISC attributes can be accessed through the Terrestrial Ecosystem Information (TEI) Data Distribution Packages. Current version: v12 (2026-06-22)
