objID gcsListRemeasurement, gpsListRemeasurement, lasListRemeasurement, UKIDSSDetection WSA Unique identifier for this detection, or default for no detection bigint 8   -99999999 ID_MAIN
objID calDetection WSACalib Unique identifier for this detection or default for no detection bigint 8   -99999999 ID_MAIN
This attribute is included to provide a single identification number for real detection rows (objID>0) when making cross-neighbour tables between source and detection. In general, users should NOT use this attribute for look-ups between the source and detection tables, because every detector frame has a default row in the detection table, so there are many, many thousands of rows with objID=-99999999 in each detection table which will be associated with every look-up of objID=-99999999 from source (i.e. those rows for which there is no detection or no frame in a particular passband). See the glossary entry for objID in source tables for more information.
