On Random generated Plots
Posted: Fri Nov 24, 2017 1:51 pm
In my previous project the city gave me the shape files with the boundary and it happened that the shapes fit perfectly the urban area with basically no rural or agricultural land so everything worked fine. Now I have another city that gave me their shape files but in some cases there is a lot of Ag land and even in one case a piece of a natural reserve (20% of the area of the district) is included in the area, I am not sure how to proceed, I think there are 2 options
1) Reduce the boundaries to the actual urban area, excluding as much as possible the rural areas and natural reserve so the valuation takes place only on urban trees or
2) include everything then increase the number of plots but those that are located in rural areas or reserves just discard them. Will this affect the statistics?
Any suggestion or comment will be welcome
