Abstract
A site classification system using 5-metre site index classes was applied in an inventory in eastern Ontario. ir photos and data on site index obtained from fiels work were used by photo interpreters to assign site index classes to individual stands. In a subsequent test of the procedures, the accuracy of the classification was found to be 76 percent. This accuracy, while acceptable, can be increased.The method is intended for use in extensive (regional, provincial) forest inventories and provides an objective (numerical) assessment of site quality.
