September 14, 2012 – ITIS Hierarchy Table Changes
If you've been using our database downloads from the downloads page, you'll be interested to know the structure of the ITIS Hierarchy table has changed.
While updating our search we've added new columns to make hierarchy queries faster. These columns were added:
- TSN - the TSN this hierarchy string relates to
- Parent_TSN - the immediate parent of the TSN
- level - the number of steps down the hierarchy this TSN is located
- ChildrenCount - the number of children this TSN has.
