Status	Attribute label	Enumerant label ▾	Concept definition	Code	Ref type	Reference
STD 2005/06/07	URBAN_TERRAIN_ZONE_TYPE	ATTACHED_1	Centres of older <CITY>s with high concentrations of <BUILDING>s with multiple <FLOOR_LEVEL>s (5 to 50); Attached₁. <BUILDING>s occupy nearly all of their lots and are flush to <SIDEWALK>s and they either attach or abut neighbours. Usually bordered by <<<ATTACHED_1>>> and <<<DISCRETE_CLUST_1>>> zones.	1	IR	[UTZB]
STD 2005/06/07	URBAN_TERRAIN_ZONE_TYPE	ATTACHED_2	<BUILDING>s fill lots to their perimeters, but are not as tall as those in <<<ATTACHED_1>>>; Attached₂. <BUILDING>s are attached or abutted to neighbours, are flush to <STREET>s, and are typically 5 to 10 <FLOOR_LEVEL>s. Land use is mainly <APARTMENT_HOUSE>s with some <HOTEL>s and offices.	2	IR	[UTZB]
STD 2005/06/07	URBAN_TERRAIN_ZONE_TYPE	ATTACHED_3	Attached or abutted individual <BUILDING>s (for example: row houses), typically of 1 to 4 <FLOOR_LEVEL>s and most often residential. <BUILDING>s have little or no setback from <SIDEWALK> and they usually have a narrow back yard; Attached₃.	3	IR	[UTZB]
STD 2005/06/07	URBAN_TERRAIN_ZONE_TYPE	ATTACHED_4	Attached or abutted <BUILDING>s, 2 to 10 <FLOOR_LEVEL>s, flush to the <STREET> with no setback or side set; Attached₄. The<BUILDING>s have industrial or storage functions with little space for parking. Non-built-upon space is primarily for storage of <MATERIAL>.	4	IR	[UTZB]
STD 2005/06/07	URBAN_TERRAIN_ZONE_TYPE	ATTACHED_5	Attached or abutted <BUILDING>s, along commercial ribbon <STREET>s; Attached₅. Typically 1 to 5 <FLOOR_LEVEL>s, and old in age (newer types are typically of the <<<DISCRETE_CLUST_5>>> zone), with no setback from <SIDEWALK>s. The <BUILDING>s often have a commercial function on the ground <FLOOR>, with apartments above.	5	IR	[UTZB]
STD 2005/06/07	URBAN_TERRAIN_ZONE_TYPE	ATTACHED_6	Attached <BUILDING> or <BUILDING>s, 1 to 7 <FLOOR_LEVEL>s; Attached₆. Attached₆ often has a single institutional <LAND> use along a <STREET> otherwise occupied by office <BUILDING>s or stores, e.g., a <CHURCH>, <GOVERNMENT_BUILDING>, or a <HOSPITAL_BUILDING>. This is in effect a single instance of a differing <BUILDING> rather than a zone of multiple <BUILDING>s.	6	IR	[UTZB]
STD 2005/06/07	URBAN_TERRAIN_ZONE_TYPE	ATTACHED_BUILDINGS	Attached <BUILDING>s of an unknown type or function.	7	IR	[UTZB]
STD 2005/06/07	URBAN_TERRAIN_ZONE_TYPE	CLOSE_SET_BUILDINGS	Close-set <BUILDING>s of an unknown type or function.	8	IR	[UTZB]
STD 2005/06/07	URBAN_TERRAIN_ZONE_TYPE	DISCRETE_CLUST_1	Newer (post 1950) high-rise <BUILDING>s (20 to 50 <FLOOR_LEVEL>s) that often have "skins" of some decorative <MATERIAL> (for example: glass); Discrete-cluster₁. Typical use is for office <BUILDING>s, while some are <HOTEL>s. <BUILDING>s are spaced at approximately 13 metres.	9	IR	[UTZB]
STD 2005/06/07	URBAN_TERRAIN_ZONE_TYPE	DISCRETE_CLUST_2	Close-set apartment <BUILDING>s (3 to 10 <FLOOR_LEVEL>s) with some set back from the lot <BOUNDARY>; Discrete-cluster₂. <BUILDING>s are usually long and narrow with the narrow end to the <STREET>. Maximum spacing of the <BUILDING>s is 13 metres.	10	IR	[UTZB]
