# Cross reference table

The Habitat Coverage cross reference table provides the new attribution for habitat mapping and percentage coverage by linking to the OSID. There is a one-to-many relationship which should be considered when joining the cross reference table to features in GIS software packages.

The naming of the Habitat Coverage Reference file depends on which topographic area feature it applies to, i.e.:

* OS NGD Land feature type = land\_habcovref
* OS NGD Rail feature type = rail\_habcovref
* OS NGD Road Track or Path feature type = roadtrackorpath\_habcovref
* OS NGD Structure feature type = structure\_habcovref
* OS NGD Water feature type = water\_habcovref

The Habitat Coverage Reference table is included with the GeoPackage file and is available separately if data is requested in CSV format.<br>

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.os.uk/osngd/using-os-ngd-data/os-ngd-land-cover-enhancements/cross-reference-table.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
