NAME

Bio::Chado::Schema::Result::NaturalDiversity::NdGeolocation

DESCRIPTION

The geo-referencable location of the stock. NOTE: This entity is subject to change as a more general and possibly more OpenGIS-compliant geolocation module may be introduced into Chado.

ACCESSORS

nd_geolocation_id

data_type: 'integer'
is_auto_increment: 1
is_nullable: 0
sequence: 'nd_geolocation_nd_geolocation_id_seq'

description

data_type: 'varchar'
is_nullable: 1
size: 255

A textual representation of the location, if this is the original georeference. Optional if the original georeference is available in lat/long coordinates.

latitude

data_type: 'real'
is_nullable: 1

The decimal latitude coordinate of the georeference, using positive and negative sign to indicate N and S, respectively.

longitude

data_type: 'real'
is_nullable: 1

The decimal longitude coordinate of the georeference, using positive and negative sign to indicate E and W, respectively.

geodetic_datum

data_type: 'varchar'
is_nullable: 1
size: 32

The geodetic system on which the geo-reference coordinates are based. For geo-references measured between 1984 and 2010, this will typically be WGS84.

altitude

data_type: 'real'
is_nullable: 1

The altitude (elevation) of the location in meters. If the altitude is only known as a range, this is the average, and altitude_dev will hold half of the width of the range.

create_geolocationprops

Usage: $set->create_geolocationprops({ baz => 2, foo => 'bar' });
Desc : convenience method to create geolocation properties using cvterms
        from the ontology with the given name
Args : hashref of { propname => value, ...},
       options hashref as:
        {
          autocreate => 0,
             (optional) boolean, if passed, automatically create cv,
             cvterm, and dbxref rows if one cannot be found for the
             given geolocationprop name.  Default false.

          cv_name => cv.name to use for the given geolocationprops.
                     Defaults to 'geolocation_property',

          db_name => db.name to use for autocreated dbxrefs,
                     default 'null',

          dbxref_accession_prefix => optional, default
                                     'autocreated:',
          definitions => optional hashref of:
              { cvterm_name => definition,
              }
           to load into the cvterm table when autocreating cvterms

           rank => force numeric rank. Be careful not to pass ranks that already exist
                   for the property type. The function will die in such case.

           allow_duplicate_values => default false.
              If true, allow duplicate instances of the same geolocation
              and value in the properties of the geolocation.  Duplicate
              values will have different ranks.
