The site and survey data on the front of the Soil Disturbance Summary Card (FS 889; see Appendix 6) should be filled out if calculations are performed manually; however, it is not necessary if the survey results are calculated using the spreadsheet method.
A site map should accompany any spreadsheet summary or card summary. The back of the FS 889 summary card can be used for mapping or else a separate map could be prepared.
The requirements for site mapping follow.
| Use maps of a suitable scale (e.g., 1:5000 or 1:10 000). | |
| Indicate the map scale and north arrow. | |
| Mark the transects and point spacing or the grid bearing and grid spacing. | |
| Number the transects or the grid centres, landings, and haul roads in the same way they were numbered on the field forms. | |
| Clearly mark the boundaries of treatment units or standards units (if relevant). |
