The Jorat is one of the largest continously forested areas in the Swiss Plateau. On a forested area of 778 ha, the Parc Naturel du Jorat (PNJ), a periurban parc, has been established in 2022. To document the initial state of the forest within the perimeter of the PNJ, a sample plot inventory (SPI) was carried out on 132 sample plots (SP) in winter 2021/22.
This dataset contains results from this sample plot inventory. It consists of the following files:
- results_trees.csv: Results for or living and dead trees.
- results_regeneration.csv: Results for trees with DBH = 80 for living trees or >= 36 cm for dead trees respectively.
- lookup.csv: Contains lookup tables which describe the respective results in-depth.
- data_description.pdf: Briefly describes the datasets mentioned above.
