Field-Map Data Collector

Import deadwood comments

Prior to starting to import deadwood data you should prepare table containing these columns:

• ID plots
• ID deadwood
• X co-ordinate
• Y co-ordinate
• Z co-ordinate
• Diameter [mm or cm]

X, Y, Z co-ordinates of all break points on the deadwood center line. If you are importing data from one Field-Map project to another (or from one plot to another within the same project) you could use the inbuilt function for export. Field-Map Project Manager exports deadwood data into a special table Deadwood_Details.
