Seed Area Coordinate system: 4269 - "NAD83" Abstract: This data set is a polygon coverage that can be used to identify the location of a stand of trees that are considered to be an important source of seed. The different seed area types collected by the Natural Resources Values Information System (NRVIS) include: Gene Pool Reserve Seed Collection Area Seed Production Area Supplementary tables can be used and are available for download from the additional documentation section. Supplementary look-up table descriptions are available in the data description document, which is available for download from the additional documentation section.

  Natural Resources Values Information System (NRVIS): A primary source for coincident base features (shorelines, streams, roads, cadastral boundaries, etc.) as loaded into the Natural Resources Values Information System at the OMNR District level. NRVIS is MNR's system for managing it's corporate geographic databases. NRVIS standardizes the collection and maintenance of information (which allows for more reliable comparisons and analysis). NRVIS has been designed so it can be extended in terms of new data (geographic unit) types and additional functionality. NRVIS has been designed to allow for continuous updating, rather than 'spring house cleaning.'
