GUYADIV forest inventory plots (French Guiana 1986/2018)

Location of the GUYADIV network plots, covering approximately 100 hectares of forest inventories distributed across French Guiana. Two vector files are provided: - GUYADIV_Plots, in which each plot is represented by its actual geometry. Two types of plots are distinguished: exhaustive ones and inventories conducted using the "Point-Centered Quarter" (PCQ) method. The spatial accuracy of plot locations depends on the geolocation methods used and is documented in the shapefile. Positional uncertainty ranges from about 1 meter for plots surveyed by a professional surveyor, to around 10 meters for GPS-based locations, and up to 100 meters for plots derived from maps. - GUYADIV_Plots_X0Y0, which provides, for most inventories, the geographic coordinates of the PCQ starting point or the plot origin (x0, y0). Further information about the GUYADIV network and the present deposit is available in the following article published in Annals of Forest Science : [URL article]
