The total area surveyed under the present baseline survey and the percentage surveyed of each habitat relative to the area originally mapped are presented in Table 7.5a. The percentage calculated for each habitat type ranged from approximately 0.1% for Bare Rock or Soil and Grassland to 100% for Plantation or Plantation/Mixed Forest. The exceptionally low percentage of area surveyed (ie about 0.1%) recorded for Bare Rock or Soil and Grassland is due to the very limited effort (one day for each habitat type) devoted to the two habitats and the small area covered during field surveys in comparison to the total area identified for them on the base map. Apart from plantation, montane forest has also been substantially surveyed under the present study. The area surveyed/area left unsurveyed identified for each habitat type have been included as a factor for identifying information gaps filled by the field surveys and gaps yet to be filled (see Table 10.1a).

e: As the habitat was represented as dot locations on the base map and therefore not applicable for spatial calculation.
f: As the habitat (or majority of it) was mapped as a linear component, the total "area" surveyed for the habitat is represented by the length (km) of the habitat.
