Decisions made¶

VegBank validation¶

• Brad clarified the priority of the feature requests that had been changed to issues:
  • all VegBank issues are important, except for soil data (which can be postponed until after Oct)
  • the person collecting the plot is a must-have for attribution purposes
  • Brad recently did an analysis that required community classifications, so we need to include this
  • strata are important but can be postponed if holding up other VegBank fixes

validation order¶

• finish VegBank before moving on to CVS

To do for Aaron¶

VegBank validation¶

3. map community classification
