Geometry / Feature Classification
Features that are of the same type are stored together and tagged with an appropriate EDCS Classification Code (ECC).
The ECC is determined by the CTDB feature and soil type.
- For example, a laid linear with a soil type of water would be translated into ECC_RIVER_OR_STREAM.
- A laid linear with a soil type of road would be translated into ECC_ROAD.
- A soil defrag, a type of abstract feature, with a soil type of water would be classified as ECC_LAKE.
The mappings are stored in an ASCII file and can be edited for specific needs.
