Quality Percentage calculation

Thinning Assessment (<30 feet tall)

* Point values represent total for all items in column. For example if there are four species listed under the species column then each species is worth 1 point. If there are two species listed than each species is worth 2 points

(1-(Points deducted/total points))x100= Quality percentage
