Attribute_Label: OMR_ID
Attribute_Definition: seven
character field is a unique identifier for a mine record
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: FEATURE_ID
Attribute_Definition: foreign
key to the FEATURE table
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: COUNTY_NAM
Attribute_Definition: Primary
county in which the mine resides. If the mine is in two or more counties, this
should reflect the lead agency, the majority of the mine acreage, or the main
access point.
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: COMMODITY
Attribute_Definition: commodity

Attribute:
Attribute_Label: LAST_DATE
Attribute_Definition: date
of the last visit to the mine property

Attribute:
Attribute_Label: CREW_INITI
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: GPS_PERSON
Attribute_Definition: The
initials of the person who collected the GPS data. It may be left blank if
locational data is not from GPS files.
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: NOTE_TAKER
Attribute_Definition: This
is the person who took notes on the mine site in the field. It may be left
blank when entering data from external data sources.
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: DATA_ENTER
Attribute_Definition: Who
entered the record into the database. This is the user’s database login name.
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: DATA_SOURC
Attribute_Definition: This
holds the acronym for the organization that originated the data. For instance,
data collected by the AMLU unit from field visits get “OMR”, whereas data from
the Forest Service get “USFS”.
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: DISTICT_NA
Attribute_Definition: This
is the name of the mining district, if known.
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: AML_STATUS
Attribute_Definition: The
status of the mine as interpreted by AMLU staff.
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: CNTY_STATU
Attribute_Definition: The
status of the mine as reported by the county.
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: GIS_ID
Attribute_Definition: This
16 character field is the link between the GIS and the mine location. It is a
required field and must be unique throughout the database. It has a specific
format of “LMMDDHHLYYYYLLLN”. The
first “L” is a letter corresponding to the GPS unit used to collect the spatial
data. “MM” is the digit month, “DD” is the digit day of the month, “HH” is the
24hr UTC clock hour. The second “L” is a character A-Z designating a unique
file for that hour. “YYYY” is the for digit year of the file. “LLLN” is the
user id of the gps person. This
identifier can be looked up the amludb users table. In the instances where GPS
data isn’t available for a record (i.e. Forest Service data) but a latitude and
longitude is known, this field may be left blank (Null) and the field ddlat and
ddlon should be populated. A new unique gis id will automatically be created
under these conditions. Note that if the gis id is left blank and the ddlat and
ddlon field are not populated, you will not be able to save the record.

Attribute:
Attribute_Label: GIS_TYPE
Attribute_Definition: One
of three types of spatial feature: “point”, “line” or “polygon”.
Attribute_Definition_Source: OMR
Attribute:
Attribute_Label: GIS_ACCURA
Attribute_Definition: The
spatial accuracy of the position. There are five classes of spatial accuracy to
choose from. The first, “15 ft.”, corresponds to differentially corrected GPS
data. The second, “66 ft.”, corresponds to differentially corrected GPS data
where an offset was involved. The
third, “328 ft.”, corresponds to uncorrected GPS data or positions derived from
a topographic map. The fourth, “2700 ft.”, corresponds to positions derived
from PLSS (Section, Township, Range) information. And the fifth, “Unknown”, is
for those cases where no assessment can be made of the positional accuracy.

“coyote hole” then you should select “Low”. “High” indicates a strong level of
confidence.
