Large-scale regional or national forest inventories collect field data on sample plots systematically- or randomly-distributed, fully or partially covered by forests. This scientific note addresses differences between a prediction of a forest attribute per unit area that also considers land uses other than forest, and a prediction based only on the forested area of a sample plot. The former approach yields a more realistic prediction for the sample point, whereas the latter yields a prediction that is comparable to classical phytosociological studies.
