ID stands for Identifier, and is a property through which data can be uniquely identified.
A Project in the Tygron Platform consists of large amounts of data, such as neighborhoods, constructions, stakeholders, overlays, and much more. The Tygron Platform needs to keep track of all the data in the Project. However, much data can be freely duplicated, and can have effectively all of its properties changed. To allow referring to data unambiguously, all data in a project has a unique ID.
The ID of any piece of data is a number which is unique among all data of the same type in that project. I.e., there can only be one Construction with an ID of 2, but that does not preclude there being a stakeholder with an ID of 2.
