Atlantic
white-cedar Restoration Methodology - Flagging the Fence Line |
|
|
This step in fence line establishment is critical prior
to cutting. During this stage the line is laid out to
be as straight as possible with a minimal number of corners
thereby avoiding unnecessary bends, turns and angle points.
This can be performed by following a compass bearing,
road edge, abandoned cranberry bog perimeter, or other
topographical features. In some cases the flagged perimeter
can be located via GPS and plotted over a photograph (see
picture - blue line is proposed fence line). The line
can then be evaluated in reference to the surrounding
vegetation, topography, access and adjusted accordingly
if necessary. |
