Stem with two tags

[krystalbagnaschi]

Hi @ValentineHerr,

I had a stem today that had two separate ID tags and points in the map. I was wondering which I should remove and if I should put the other stem as DN / what would be the best course of action. Currently the stem still has both tags in the field. Thanks!

The ID numbers are 93968 and 93381.

I think it might be easier to treat the stems as two different individuals (leave the two tags). 93968 was recruited last census and they must have either decided it was a different individual (or not notice the tag on the other stem - even though they did measure it). Maybe put a note saying we decide to leave them as is, so the next census people know that it is what we are doing.

I would advocate for deleting the mistaken recruit tag from last census. You don't want to double count a tree.

Yes, we should delete the newer tag.

I have made 93968 'DN' with a dbh of zero, and will be removing the tag from the field.

THanks, @krystalbagnaschi .

@ValentineHerr , could you please fix this in our previous census file(s)?
