Predicting Tree Regeneration Following a Windstorm in Stanley Park

 

 

 

 

 

 

Methods

To create maps showing the factors of interest.


A. Average in Polygon:

1) Select feature
2) Remove all other features from the TSP and PSP layers except the feature of interest
3) Merge the TSP and PSP layers together
4) Join newly created layer to layer showing stand boundaries

B. Inverse Distance Weighting

1) Select feature
2) Remove all other features from the TSP and PSP layers except the feature of interest
3) Merge the TSP and PSP layers together
4) Use IDW tool in ARC toolbox
5) extract layer to be the same shape as Stanley Park

To create maps and graphs showing Ordinary Least Squares

1) Join layer of feature of interest to layer showing number of germinants

2) Use OLS tool in ARC Toolbox to get maps, graphs, and formula
