Misc Fields:
Observation Narrative	original plot ID: AA1010, Vegetation type confidence: Medium confidence. Seems to be a very sparse Encelia californica however.; Medium confidence for assessment. Polygon sparsely vegetated.- Especially because of drought deciduous species. Encelia californica seems to have the greatest cover (would be higher if foliated) If all species fully foliated cover might be 20%.;
