VDYP7 Console (VDYP7 Batch or VDYP7 Adjust)

VDYP7 Batch (or Adjust) is part of the distributed software package, however, it is not supported by the Ministry of Forests, Land and Natural Resource Operations.  The application, has input data format issues, and will not be implemented at the present time.  In addition, the idea to adjust inventory attributes within VRIMS has been shelved.  Inventory users wishing to adjust VRI inventory attributes can do so at their own choice.  There will be limited support for this activity by MFLNRO staff.
