S. CONCLUSION
In forestry, there have been many areas where vegetation maps serve as base maps toward
producing regional forest management maps. In addition, they play an important role in
differentiating vegetation types and in identifying the silvicultural operational units. The map
created for Citdere District including very unique tree species and their varied stand classes is very
important for preservation and determination of negative human interference.
