Other constraints
Harvest histories generated by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection's Forest Practice GIS show information currently in the files of the department. This information is part of the public's domain. Because the status of harvest plans change through out operational activity and/or amendments to the original plan, and because geographic features may be reclassified or added into the data sets over time, we recommend that you not redistribute this GIS data. We recommend that you update your data through the department on a regular basis to obtain the most current and accurate version. The State of California and The Department of Forestry and Fire Protection make no representations of warranties regarding the accuracy of data or maps. Neither the State nor the Department shall be liable under any circumstances for any direct, special, incidental, or consequential damages with respect to any claim by any user or third party on account of or arising from the use of data or maps. Users should cite the Department of Forestry and Fire Protection as the original source of the data, but clearly denote cases where the original data have been updated, modified, or in any way altered from the original condition.

Measure description
Dataset represented is a reflection of the public record and only is as accurate as the information contained within that record. Most data have not been ground truthed by California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. Thoroughness of feature representation is limited to what is represented in the source documents.


Evaluation method
When truthed against aerial imagery and locational discrepancies are detected, spatial modifications and attribute updates are made to reflect the modifications.
