vector digital data
Geodatabase is known as Stand_EXAM_PUB_PT in Internal BLM systems.
STAND_EXAM_PUB_PT: This dataset is a spatial representation of Forest Stand Exam point locations that are recorded in the tabular EcoSurvey application. The EcoSurvey application utilizes a handheld data recorder to collect stand exam data in the field and PC application to process the data to generate custom reports to summarize the data. Data summaries include stand level statistics, and export files for growth and yield models. The EcoSurvey application provides the ability to run summary reports on select groupings of plots. The purpose of this dataset is to display plot data spatially to be able to run summary reports on a spatially selected group of plots. The Stand Exam Points dataset is a sub-class of the Oregon Data Framework Sample Points dataset theme. For ease of publishing this data, it is presented as a separate dataset from other sample point data types. Dataset (Theme) Name: Stand Exam Points · Dataset (Feature Class): STAND_EXAM_PUB_PT
This dataset is used to display tabular plot locations from the EcoSurvey database as a point feature class. The point dataset is then used within the EcoSurvey Web application to allow resource specialists to view the data spatially and select plots spatially to run EcoSurvey summary reports.

Description: Instance of the Sample group, sub-class of SAMPLE_PT: Geometry: Points; may be coincident.Topology: No.Integration Requirements: None.
This theme covers all public and private lands in Oregon and Washington.
Plot locations are captured using Global Position System (GPS) and should have a higher level of accuracy. The accuracy of the location of the point can vary depending on the accuracy of the device used to the collect the data and other factors, such as tree canopy.
Unknown.
Collection, input, and maintenance of the data is performed within the EcoSurvey application. See documentation for this system for information on collection and data entry protocols. Data is updated within the EcoSurvey application by forestry staff as needed. This spatial representation of the data is archived annually at the end of the fiscal year.

BLM
OBJECTID
Internal feature number.
Esri
Sequential unique whole numbers that are automatically generated.
SAMPLE_ID
Unique identifier for each sample point for the sampling indicated in SAMPLE_TYPE. Serves as the link to an external table (if any) with detailed measurement information by date (a one-to-many relationship). Districts are encouraged to develop standard naming schemes.
BLM
Examples: 5531-009, YA_1.5, WLD_RD_7, LUBI-01

A sample grouping identifier, if needed.
BLM
Examples: A, Rattlesnake, North, South
UNIT_NAME
The EcoSurvey unit name that the record belongs to.
BLM
Examples: 271121A, 121536
PLOT_NUM
EcoSurvey unique identifier for the plot within the unit.
BLM
Examples: 906, 40
SAMPLE_TYPE
The purpose for taking the sample at this location.

The date the monitoring or sampling point was established in the field.
BLM
Examples: 20080624, 1998, 200109, UNKNOWN
OI_KEY
Unique identifier for the Forest Operations Inventory Vegetation (FOIVEG) dataset. This identifier is added to stand exams in the EcoSurvey database. Values in this dataset are the values that are recorded in EcoSurvey, they are not automatically assigned by a spatial overlay process with the FOIVEG_POLY feature class.
BLM
Examples: 41022, 130712
OTHERNAME
It is not uncommon for the same monitoring or sampling point to have more than one name because of changes in staff and databases. Knowing the other names is sometimes critical to determining if the sample location is indeed the same or different than another named location. One or more historical names can be placed in this field.
BLM
COMMENTS
Free text for comments about the sample point.
BLM
Examples: Mary Smith, John Doe
SAMPLE_GUID
Unique identifier for the Sample Points feature class. This value is auto-generated and does not link to the EcoSurvey database or any other database.
BLM
Example value: “{E37EF156-4C20-4A78-A9BE-9EB4E6F00544}”
CURRENT_CD
Whether the sample point is currently in use or historic. Date/age does not determine this but whether the entity is now removed, obsolete, replaced, or erased in some sense. For Stand Exams: C (Current) entities reflect current vegetative conditions on the ground and are active in the EcoSurvey database. H (Historic) entities are historic due to vegetative changes since the plot was installed are and archived in the EcoSurvey database.
BLM
C
C - Entity is still present on the ground
BLM
H
H - Entity is obsolete, obliterated or removed
BLM
N
N - Not applicable, entity still proposed
BLM
BLM_ORG_CD
A combination of the BLM administrative state and field office that has administrative responsibility for the spatial entity. This includes determining the office to cover the entity for planning purposes and the office that is the lead for GIS edits. Another agency or individual may have the physical management responsibility for the on-the-ground entity. This field applies particularly when a spatial entity crosses field office or district boundaries and the administrative responsibility is assigned to one or the other rather than splitting the spatial unit. Similarly, OR/WA BLM may have administrative responsibility over some area that is physically located in Nevada, Idaho, or California and vice versa. When appropriate, identify the office to the district or even the state level rather than to the field office level.
