The inventory is always linked to an analysis area, and usually to a sample of the stands in this area. This if the stratification of the imported stand register was successful. Data from the stratification is here selected, first the sample stands (a.k.a. Treatment Units), then the corresponding sample plots (a.k.a. Reference Units).
- Create the actual inventory
Actually, the inventory is predefined in a number of tables (found in the table-droplist). Most of the variables to be estimated ("measured") in field are mandatory, only a few are voluntary and hence possible to exclude. However, it is possible to define "new" variables, just make sure they are added to correct tables (following the logical order to be estimated in field). Finish this part by chosing "Create Inventory Database".
The setup concern several details (...) but mainly the variables to be estimated in the inventory. When this is decided, a template is exported to the data collector. Inventory data can then be imported in a running manner, added and checked for errors until completed. A complete inventory is finally exported and imported in the Heureka forest database.
