Usage examples
  • At Community level, data should be collected by a field inventory using systematically distributed sample points with a grid density of 16 kilometres x 16 kilometres and covering the entire area of each Member State. The 16 kilometres x 16 kilometres grid network is established following the latitude, longitude coordinate system in north-south and east-west directions from the reference point: latitude 50g15m15mm, longitude 09g47m06mm. The coordinates of these points will be transmitted to each Member State by the Commission. Grid intersection points falling outside a forested area (according to the above definition) should be rejected as sample points although if in the future a new stand is established they must be reconsidered.
