Definition		With the selection logging method (de: Plenterwald), not all trees of a parcel are felled at once, but only a number of selected trees that are chosen to be already in the right mature condition for harvesting. Some other trees are left standing either because they have not yet any value for logging or for further growth. This harvesting method is connected with long rotation forestry. Decisions on the felling or keeping of trees are made not only based on their maturity and timber value but also based on the characteristics and ecological processes inherent to the stand site (nature-oriented forestry). The selection cutting is system is seen to be a very sustainable form of forestry, where felling of trees, rejuvenation and regrowth throughout different age classes and mixed species is in an equilibrium, which ensures a continuous forest cover. However, if selection logging is applied continuously intensive beyond any sustainable rationale, selection logging leads to forest degradation, where natural succession can´t keep up due to ecological conditions.

Definition		Forest rejuvenation evolves on the basis self-seeded spreading of plants seeds by themselves in a natural manner.
Notation		LCH-self-seeded-succession

Identifier
Label
Definition		Semi-dry soil regimes are characterized by a sequence of rainy and dry episodes throughout the year, where dry episodes dominate. The ground is often very well drained, so that precipitation infiltrates quickly into lower levels of the ground where it is out of reach for surface vegetation. The soil has a low moisture storage capacity, with only little capillary flow.
Notation		LCH-semidry

Identifier
Label
Definition		This character indicates if a cultivated land parcel is set aside (i.e. taken out of crop production), meaning that the crop production is paused for one or more growing seasons, and the parcel is either exposed to natural succession or covered with an intermediate vegetation cover to protect the soil from erosion or improve the soil structure or soil fertility. The purpose of setting aside a parcel is to let the soil recover from intensive cultivation. It can be part of a crop rotation cycle.

Definition		Shelterwood (de: Schirmschlag)cutting is applied to a mature forest stand. It refers to the progression of forest cuttings by felling more and more single trees, step by step in an evenly distributed manner throughout the woodland parcel. The process stretches over several years, and each time after a felling event, more open space and light becomes available for the rejuvenation on the ground, which takes place in the shadow of the left over still standing shelter trees. Like that, it leads to the establishment of a new generation of seedlings of a particular species or group of species through natural succession without planting. The result of this harvest and regeneration method is a new even-aged forest stand (with only few years difference in age). This harvesting method is connected with long rotation forestry.
Notation		LCH-shelterwood-cutting

Identifier
Label
Definition		Shifting cultivation (slash & burn) is a type of crop rotation in combination with a fallow land phase which is applied mainly by subsistent farmers in tropical regions. Rain forest is cut down to gain space for growing crops. The biomass that has been cut down is burnt, the ashes serve as nutrition for the crops. The cultivation period is limited to a few years due to the limited soil fertility. After a crop cultivation period the soil is left fallow so a secondary vegetation succession can take place. After a certain time, this land undergoes again the cycle of slash and burn practice.

Definition		Areas at the shore or along rivers, normally associated to a port, where vessels are built, maintained or repaired. For that purpose, vessels are fixed in a normal dock (floating in water) or in a dry dock, without water contact.

Label
Definition		Short rotation Coppicing (SRC) refers to the growing of trees (usually willow or poplar) in extremely dense stands, harvested at 2-5 years intervals and regenerated from the stools, which are expected to survive 5 rotations at least, before plants need to be replaced be re-planting.
Notation		LCH-short-rotation-coppice-src-plantation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Short rotation forestry (SRF) consists of planting a site and then felling the trees when they have reached a size of typically 10-20 cm diameter at breast height. Depending on tree species this usually takes between 6 and 20 years, and is therefore intermediate in timescale between Short rotation Coppicing (SRC) and conventional long rotation forestry.

Label
Definition		The practice of shrub clearance is applied on grassland areas with the aim to avoid the stepwise succession growing of bushes, shrubs or trees. Like this, the area is kept as an open grassland which is often used for grazing.
Notation		LCH-shrub-clearance

Identifier
Label
Definition		This element applies for collateral or additional crops that are cultivated at the same time along with the main or also the secondary crop. The reason to do so can be to support biodiversity or to improve soil nutrient content. The side crop has also an economic value when harvested.

Definition		In Forestry, the harvest of timber is very much connected and interlinked with methods of forest regeneration. Therefore, these two aspects come together in the heading of this segment. Here, several forms of forest harvest are listed. The list tries to capture the most common methods, many other variations exist besides.
Notation		LCH-silvicultural-harvest-and-regeneration-method

Identifier
Label
Definition		This segment contains a list of silvicultural measures that are applied to the forest. They are applied to the plants and the soil. In analog to cultivation measures also forestry measures are activities that are applied to forest parcels in order to support a healthy and efficient growth of trees or to maintain the forest in the intended condition.
Notation		LCH-silvicultural-measure

Label
Definition		The area characterized with this built-up pattern contains buildings of large size with several floors and can have more than one entry door. The need for efficient usage of space for apartments or offices results often in the being built high. The buildings normally have some free space in between them for day light and fresh air circulation. Typically these block buildings occur in urban agglomeration zones and give housing or office room for a relatively high number (hundreds and more) of persons. An extreme example is a sky-scraper.
Notation		LCH-single-blocks-discontinuous

Identifier
Label
Definition		A snow mass with typically a volume greater than 100 m3 and a minimum length of 50 meters that slides rapidly downhill. Snow avalanches usually incorporate materials swept along the path of the snow avalanche, such as trees, rocks, etc. Avalanche formation is the result of a complex interaction between terrain, snow pack and meteorological conditions.
Notation		LCH-snow-avalanche

Identifier
Label
Definition		This character indicates areas which are used to either collect snow (artificial or natural) over the cold (winter) season, with or without using particular installations or terrain modification. The snow is then covered with specific substances to preserve the snow from melting throughout the warm summer season.
Notation		LCH-snowfarming-area

CSV Import

The CSV file should contain a header row for element names and data rows for concepts.
It is strongly recommended to use an exported CSV file as a template for bulk editing. Columns and rows can be added to or deleted from the template file.
A concept can be ignored by prepending a double-slash '//' to the concept row in the CSV

If the header row contains unknown elements the import will aborted and data will be rolled back
Erroneous concept rows are ignored, valid data rows are still imported
Successful import cannot be undone (unless "undo checkout" is performed)
If a concept with the same identifier already exists in the vocabulary it will be overwritten
"Purge Vocabulary" option deletes all the vocabulary concepts before import
