Title: SOURCES
Short Name: SOURCES
Status: Completed
Abstract:

The data table SOURCES contains the primary sources used to create the ESI data set. The source records link to the BIOFILE through the SOURCE_ID field in the SOURCES table, and the G_SOURCE and S_SOURCE fields in the BIOFILE. See the Entity_and_Attribute_Overview for a detailed description of how the primary attribute tables relate to the geographic data layers. Also see the Browse_Graphic section for a link to the entity-relationship diagram, which describes the way this table relates to other attribute tables in the ESI data structure. | Description Source: NOAA ESI Guidelines
