This diagram organizes the information that was gathered andnow to be stored in the geodatabase. The main file in particular is California and all resulting shapefiles or entities fall within the California context. In Geographic Information Science it is a good methodology to organize the data you will gather before you begin to create your geodatabase, by doing so you allow for less areas during the geodatabase creation.
The diagram is read in a top to bottom, left to right format.
The cardinality rule demonstrates the relationship between entities. For example 1 California contains Many counties. It also works in reverse, Many counties are within 1 California.
Squirrel Genus and Species was added to give an idea of what specific examples will be used for this project.
The next post will show what the the same information but listed in the master entity list
