NFI KSA Albaha Sample data

Total Sampled Trees: 6,539 This dataset comprises 1,516 georeferenced sample points from the NFI’s systematic 250m grid survey in the Albaha Region, capturing detailed records for 6,539 individual trees. The data includes tree measurements (e.g., height stratification), ecological classifications, and precise GPS coordinates to support forest resource monitoring. Key Highlights: • Tree Data: o Total Trees Sampled: 6,539 (across all plots) o Mature Trees (≥3m): [Specify if data available] o Saplings (<3m): [Specify if data available] o Example plots: SUSAP2 (10 trees), SUSAP3 (2 trees) (subset shown in table) • Geospatial & Ecological Context: o Coordinates: WGS 1984 (decimal degrees, ~1m GPS accuracy) o Agro-climatic zones: Asir Scarp (6.1), High Asir (6.2) o Stratified by governorates (e.g., Ghamed Zenad, Al-Bsha) • Methodology: o Part of the NFI KSA’s nationwide 250m grid framework o Focused on the Asir Mountains’ ecological strata Purpose: Supports long-term forest management, carbon stock assessments, and biodiversity conservation in arid regions.
