The dataset also includes age and species composition of woodlots. Species occurrences are contained in the related table named SpeciesOccurences_20221121. The Mapping Methods and Field Verification report (Dougan and Associate, November 2022) outlines the methods utilized to complete the ELC interpretation, coding, digitization, and the QAQC and field verification approaches.
