416 Distinct vegetation boundary

Geometry: line.

Definition

A vegetation boundary within the forest, or a distinct forest edge.

Only one of the vegetation boundary symbols (black dotted line or dashed green line) can be used on a map. For areas with a lot of rock features, it is recommended to use the green dashed line for vegetation boundaries. A disadvantage with a green line is that it cannot be used to show distinct vegetation boundaries around and within symbol Vegetation: fight (410). An alternative for these situations is to use symbol Distinct cultivation boundary (415).
