 Prior to inventory, a "stratification" needs to be done. This is valid also in a complete inventory (when all stands in the analysis area are included), since some general inventory parameters are set in this part. Considering cost-efficiency, the inventory is commonly based on a two-stage sampling procedure. Here, this starts with selecting the imported stand register of interest, i.e. the analysis area to be in-field inventoried by plotwise sampling in PPS-sampled stands.

 The stratification is done in each domain separately. The stands (their productive forest land areas) of a certain domain are related to one of the several user-defined strata. In addition to total area, the number of stands and the area of the largest stand can be viewed in each stratum. The stratum-matrix should first be arranged according to current forest state (by number of classes and class width) and, if desirable, defined by other variables than volume and age.
