Research Point

A Research Point is a feature representing single coordinate or point based locations, where some form of research observation, test, trial, measure, or monitoring activity has, or will take place. The mapped features are generally small in extent (e.g. soil water table monitor, tree cavity nest), and can be used to represent the locations of sampling techniques (e.g. basal area prism sweep). This data class is one of three primitive data classes: Research Point (RESPOINT), Research Line (RESLINE), and Research Polygon (RESPOLY).
