FORS 7690 Lab Exam – Instructions

 

 

Your FORS 7690 lab exam consists of 5 questions… Record your answers in a WORD document and, upon completion, upload it and any other information I request to the ELC Lab Exam assignment dropbox. I recommend you save your project often.

Your answers to the ‘How many acres…’ questions will be compared to acreages I determined while writing this exam. Your answers will be graded as follows:

  • Within +/- 2 acres: 8 points (+/- 2 acres is generous…  imagine if you under estimated the area of valuable timber by 2 acres, or if you based your bid on an over estimate of…)
  • Within +/- 4 acres: 6 points
  • Within +/- 5 acres: 4 points
  • Within +/- 6 acres: 3 points
  • Everything else:    1 point

Answers build on previous analyses. If at any point you are concerned about your data, I will provide you the GIS layer I generated for that question at the following points-off-your-total-grade rates:

  • Question 1: 20 points
  • Question 2: 20 points
  • Question 3: 35 points

All you must do to receive this assistance is give me a slip of paper with your name, email, and the problem number for which you are requesting assistance. You may not request assistance before the question has been released.
