tGeography Table
AIRGeography Database : tGeography Table
Description

Stores the post-validation geographical area information that the application displays on the user interface.

After you import exposure data, the application writes the data to TblAreaExternal Table and validates the data using the airsp_ValidateArea stored procedure. Then, the application updates the records in tGeography to match the content of TblAreaExternal.
