Terrain Stability Mapping (TSM) Detailed Polygons with Short Attribute Table Spatial View

Terrain Stability Mapping (TSM) Detailed Polygons (STE_TER_STABILITY_POLYS_SVW) contains TSM 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: TEMSET, TEMTSM, TSM, TSMREC, TSMDET, TBW, and TBS. TSM uses air photo interpretation and select field checking to divides the landscape into units using the Terrain Classification System for British Columbia and stability criteria. Polygon attributes include (but are not limited to) surficial material, surface expression, geomorphological processes, drainage class, slope range and stability class. TSM methods include manual air photo interpretation and setting stability criteria supported by selective field checking. TSM 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). TSM inventory polygons with full RISC attributes can be accessed through the Terrestrial Ecosystem Information (TEI) Data Distribution Packages. Current version: v12 (2026-06-22)
