Table 3.
Baseline attribute field requirements in the digital shoreline analysis system.
| Attribute field | Description |
|---|---|
| DATE_ | It is not name specific. The date field is required. It can be named DATE_ or DSAS_date. The dates are needed to be formatted as mm/dd/yyyy. Note: The computer's date format must be set to English mm/dd/yyyy. |
| UNCERTAINTY | It can be written as UNCERTAINTY or DSAS_uncy or as per the user-defined name. This field is required for the attribute of shapefiles |
| BANKLINE_TYPE | This field is usually used to clarify the datum the bankline is referenced. One thing that should be kept in mind is that it does not name specific. It is a required field as part of the proxy-datum bias (PDB) correction when proxy-based and datum-based Banklines are combined to compute Bankline change rates. |
