Github Issue: #85 Add variable units to API response
Description
Units for data measurements are not included in the standard shapefile fields. They are located in the shp.xml metadata file. We decided it was important to include the units as additional fields in each feature record.
Overview of work done
Modified parse_metadata_from_shpxml function introduced in #111 to also read the units from teh shp.xml file and add them as additional attributes on each feature as they are loaded into the database.
Overview of verification done
Updated unit tests to check for presence of units on and that they are the correct units for that field. Unit tests pass.
Overview of integration done
Deployed to SIT and loaded new granules into dynamodb. Verified that the units are now included in each database record.
