SDAP post-storm spreadsheet continuation

This refers to the post storm damage spreadsheet in SDAP and continues a question I posted a month ago. So, if I am using cubic yards, I put a y in column AD. Then I put my cubic yardage in columns AE to AN. Then column AP shows me the total. Is this correct? If I am using canopy loss, do I put a n ...

Comparing UFORE to American Forests Reports

Has anyone done UFORE and also had an American Forests Urban Ecosystem Analysis done? How do the results compare? We are thinking of using the former to show % canopy changes since the latter was done.

SDAP post-storm spreadsheet

1st question For the "post data" page on the excel spreadsheet for SDAP, column AD is titled CY and column AP is titled Cytotal. What is the difference? I can't figure how what to put there. 2nd question Same spreadsheet - Columns AE to AO refer to "canopy loss" instead of "...

Formula in SDAP excel sheet

For the SDAP excel sheet entitled PreAnalysis, shouldn't the formula for cell H22 be PreData!V103 instead of PreData!V102?

Thanks.

Define "Major Storm"

The SDAP "PreAnalysis" excel sheet uses the phrase "Pre-Storm Estimate of Major Storm Damage." Can someone define "major storm"?

Thanks.

Questions on PreData sheet in excel

On this excel sheet called PreData, here are my questions: 1. For "length," do you want feet or miles? BTW, we are using feet for "ROW." 2. What is "MultiSegment"? Am I right in assuming it requires a yes or no? 3. If a column like "Start" is N/A, do we just l...

Everything you mentioned is OK from this end as far as I can tell. I'm not talking about the addresses. Those are correct. I'm talking about the "From" and "To" GPS coordinates being all the same. They are above the street addresses and below the "length of the feature"...

I am referring to the sample segment generator for SDAP. It gives a written segment report. For each segment, it gives the street name, street addresses to be included in the sample, length of segment and the "from" and "to" coordinates of each segment . It's the "from"...

GPS incorrect in sample

I ran a sample and the GPS coordinates for every segment were exactly the same. BTW, we are a city of 90,000. Anyone know why?

Thanks for all the answers StormyJerry. Regarding non-linear areas, aren't we still just surveying the ROW + 50 feet back? We're not surveying our whole park are we? When it is city land, the 50 feet back in a maintained area, are we asking the state to reimburse tree removal and pruning there in ad...

Page 213 of manual question

Page 213 in the manual is "Form 3 - Page 2." The seventh footnote refers the reader to "Table G-1 on the last page of these forms." Anyone know where table G-1 is or if that's a typo?
Thanks.

Form on page 208 of manual

Page 208 of the manual has a form entitled "PRE-Storm Field Data Collection Sheet (Populated Area)." In the bottom section, there are places to compute hours for removal and hours for hazardous pruning for trees in the ROW. The right-hand part of that table is for trees within 50 feet of t...

Will FEMA accept the 30 segment sample size?

The new manual sets 30 segments as the appropriate sample size for SDAP. This makes for a small sample if you're in a large city. Will FEMA accept it? (I know I can go higher but I need to know if FEMA will accept the 30.)
Thanks.
