Terrain Mapping (TER) Polygon Attributes Terrain Mapping (TER) Polygon Attributes (STE_TER_ATTRIBUTE_POLYS_SVW) contains TER inventory polygons with key and amalgamated (concatenated) attributes derived from the Resource Inventory Standards Committee (RISC) standard attributes. This layer is derived from the <a href="https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/f2cd2cc3-5f58-481c-bf3c-64934acb6fad" class="underline hover:no-underline decoration-from-font text-custom-16">STE_TEI_POLY_ATTRIBUTES_SP</a> layer by filtering on the PROJECT_TYPE attribute. Project types include: TEM, TEMNSS, TEMPRE, TEMSEI, TEMSET, TEMTSM, TSM, TSMREC, TSMDET, TIM, TBS, TBT, TIMSOI, TEMWHR, TEMSDM, TEMPRW, and PEMTBT. TER divides the landscape into units according to surficial materials, landforms and geomorphological processes using the Terrain Classification System for British Columbia. TER methods include manual air photo interpretation supported by selective field checking. Mapping criteria vary considerably between the terrain inventory, bioterrain, and terrain stability mapping projects contained in this layer.
