RELEVE DATA BASE ISSUES 1=high, 3= low
FIELD/LABEL ACTION Priority
LOG BOOK
Automate Log Book allow logging in of releve forms and reserving blocks of numbers 2
LIST RELEVES
SEARCH
add additional fields? 3
add 'Clear query' button 3
NPC Code add field NPC code (surveyors NPC if no analysis NPC available) 3
DISPLAY
Surveyors use initials for displaying secondary surveyors 3
County add field using abbreviation 3
NEW RELEVE
Surveyors Enter surveyors the way species are added. Confusion as to what has been selected; potential for unselecting a
previous selection when adding a surveyor during editing process 1
Surveyor's Native Plant Allow multiple lines of output. Parse NPC field on 2, 5,6, and up to seven characters.characters are entered. For
Commnunity: example FDc23a2 will show up as: 1
FD Fire Dependent System
FDc23 Central Dry Pine Woodland
FDc23a Jack Pine - (Yarrow) Woodland
SITE DATA
FDc23a2 Bur Oak - Aspen Subtype
Quality of Releve allow "unkown" as well as blank
qc Stand Typical of Community allow entry in field only if "Stand Typical of Community?" = "No"; incorrect error checking 2
Releve Typical of Stand allow entry in field only if "Releve Typical of Stand?" = "No"; incorrect error checking
qc Modifier 2
UTM Easting restrict entry to only 6 characters 2
UTM Northing restrict entry to only 7 characters 2
Revisit? field should indicate "Yes" instead of "X" 3
Plot Area we may have releves with area entered without plot dimensions, should we leave calculation for QC process (i.e.
compare W x L with Total Area entered)
Save after species entry "Save" shortcut after species entered; don't require tabbing through all fields 2
Plant
Data
Outside Plot make check box more obvious when it is active, not as obvious where cursor is (in IE) 3
ENTRY
Stand Typical of NPC if "Yes", Stand Typical of Community Modifier is inactive and tabbed over
Site Data
Class/Type? 2
Releve Typical of Stand? if "Yes", Releve Typical of Stand Modifier is inactive and tabbed over 2
FIELDS TO ADD
Litter Thickness numeric (2) 3
Litter Type 20 characters 3
Humus Thickness numeric (2) 3
Humus Type pick list [mor, moder, prairie mull, wormed mull] 3
Soil1 Depth numeric (3); associated with Soil Texture 1 2
Soil2 Depth numeric (3); associated with Soil Texture 2 2
Depth to SP Layer numeric (3) 4
Depth to Redox numeric (3) 4
Height of Moss Hummocks numeric (3) 3
Depth of Standing Water numeric (3) 3
Ave. Depth to Bedrock numeric (3) 3
Exposed Rock % 2

NAVIGATION
Organization Separate Site and Plant Data into two "sheets" or Require save after editing Site data and before moving to Species
x 2
Plant Dtata
Data
Strata & Species Entry after editing, saving, and return to releve - have screen return to Plant Strata instead of General Information
x 2
Strata & Species Entry add a "Return to (next) Plant Strata" button. Currently when done editing within a strata, the only option is to return
x to the top of the releve 2
x Enable a key stroke combo for saving anywhere in the form 1
In the editing of species data, after a save, replace the "Return to Releve" with two buttons; a "Return to Site Data" button that goes to the top of the page and 2
a "Return to Species Data" button that returns the cursor to the "Plant Data" section or to the next lower Plant Strata. This would save a lot of scrolling on
x editing long species lists.
x Require Site Save Before Editing of Species Data 1

Consolidate Various Functions into a single Switch Board (vs various web addresses) 2
Entry Query
QC Edit Tabular View
Final Report QC Report PDF Field Sheet
Map View (Single Releve) Map View (All or Select)
Data Export (public) Data Export (analysis)
FIELD RESTRICTIONS
Eliminate validation rules restricting allowing releve to be designated as "Incomplete"
Revisit?: don't require a releve number 1
ERROR CHECKING
Identify species that have not been documented in county; and in surrounding counties 1

Can individual fields be checked for errors after entry, not just after saving form? - probably limitation of being a web-based program 4
GIS
MCBS Site use UTM to determine Site #

PLS Section determine location to forty; change field name to "PLS Description"; (shapefile is available) 1
UTM show location on map (Google?) with option for viewing photo and topo map 1
Elevation use UTM to determine
Soils use UTM to determine soils from Soil Atlas map
Elevation Source indicate if info from Surveyor or derived digital data
Soils indicate if info from Surveyor or derived digital data
OUTPUT
Create different options for displaying QC and Final Reports 2
Create Views for ODBC connection to ACCESS
FORMATING
Make entry screen mirror Releve Form 3
ACCESS
Add to Public Web Site 2

MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT ISSUES 1=high, 3= low
FIELD/LABEL ACTION Priority
LIST RELEVES
after Date change label to "Earliest Date" 1
before Date change label to "Latest Date" 1
SEARCH
Additional Surveyors Does search for surveyor include both Lead and Additional Surveyor fields? If not add option for querying
additional surveyor 2
add 'Clear query' button 3
DNR Rel# display in descending order at the start; currently sorted only after queried (e. g. click on go!) 1
DISPLAY
Surveyors use initials for displaying secondary surveyors 3
NPC Code add field NPC code (surveyors NPC if no analysis NPC available) 2
County add field using abbreviation 3
LOOKUP MANAGEMENT
Vegetation Group place under Releve, not Plant Strata 3
Soil Texture add table to Lookup Management [or add Pg Peat- (graminoid) and Pm (Peat-moss) to table] 1
NEW RELEVE
Surveyor Releve# allow up to 20 characters for the field 1
Date display a 3 letter character for month; "day", "month", and "year" should match field form; e.g. 09 JUN 2005
1

Surveyor's Native Plant put NPC code in front of NPC Name (e.g. FDc23 Central Dry Pine Woodland)
Commnunity: 1
Surveyor's Native Plant Allow up to have three lines for output. 1st line displays the Class (use up to the first 5 characters of NPC code).
Commnunity: 2nd line displays type if at least 6 characters are present (use only first 6 characters), 3rd line displays subtype if 7
characters are entered. For example FDc23a2 will show up as: 1
FDc23a2 Central Dry Pine Woodland
Jack Pine - (Yarrow) Woodland

(5,4,3,2,1,+,R) 1
Plant Data
Species change time linit for entrying species codes to 4 seconds 2

ERROR CHECKING
Eliminate validation rules restricting allowing releve to be designated as "Entered" 1
Revisit?: don't require a releve number 1
Stand Typical of Commnunity Class/Type: don't require a modifier 1
Releve Typical of Stand? : don’t require a modifier 1
Enable a key stroke combo for saving anywhere in the form 2

In the editing of species data, after a save it would be useful to replace the "Return to Releve" with two buttons; a "Return to Site Data" button that goes to
the top of the page and a "Return to Species Data" button that returns the cursor to the "Plant Data" section or to the next lower Plant Strata. This would
save a lot of scrolling on editing long species lists.
ISSUES FOR PHASE 2

Plot Area we may have releves with area entered without plot dimensions, should we leave calculation for QC process (i.e.
