Fieldsheets

Download blank plot-sheets or request plot-sheets pre-populated with existing data.

[Edit]

The National Vegetation Survey Databank (NVS) provides plot sheet templates for many of the methods for which data are stored in NVS. For specific studies these can be pre-populated with data from previous sampling efforts to help with in-field data verification during data recording. Field data collection protocols are described in our extensive set of field data collection manuals.
