Quality Users note that this is volunteer collected data that is not field verified.

NBII-SAIN visually verified all points to be within their specified area, and
if the comments and location text matched its placement. If necessary, any
common names were edited for consistency (e.g., for upper and lower case to
match, or changing 'Royal Paulownia' to 'Princess Tree'.)

Data exists only for those areas viewable from the survey corridor (such as
along roadsides or trails). If any latitude/longitude information was zero or
not within its region and could not be corrected, the problem point was
deleted.
Access Constraints None
Use Constraints Users should at least credit Southern Appalachian Man And the Biosphere
(http://samab.org). For more usage information, check with Andy Brown at
