- Abstract
- The 6th National Forest Inventory was published by ICNF - Instituto de Conservação da Natureza e das Florestas and uses aerial and ground survey data collected in 2015 for the evaluation and monitoring of the portuguese forest resources.
- Funding
-
The 6th National Forest Inventory was co-funded by the Portuguese Carbon Fund (FPC - Fundo Português de Carbono), by ICNF, I.P. and the European Union, through the Environment Operational Programme (application 1.1/00021– Documentos Estruturantes da Conservação da Natureza e da Biodiversidade).
The preparation of this resource for publication through GBIF was supported by Project PORBIOTA―Portuguese E-Infrastructure for Information and Research on Biodiversity (POCI-01-0145-FEDER-022127), under the Operational Thematic Program for Competitiveness and Internationalization (POCI), under the PORTUGAL 2020 Partnership Agreement, through the European Regional Development Fund (FEDER) and FCT.

Sampling
- Study Extent
-
This study is the 2015 National Forest Inventory for mainland Portugal.
- Sampling Description
-
Data was collected through aerial ortho images, using grids that cover the whole continental Portugal, photo-points and points for field evaluation of vegetation parameters.
All data was inserted in a specific database build for the project.
qualityControl
- Description
- All initial data was inserted in a specific relational database built specifically for the project, which implemented several quality control methods. In the preparation of the dataset for GBIF publication, data consistency was verified using cluster algorithms using OpenRefine.
