Correspondences between typologies

The correspondences between two typologies are downloadable as an Excel file with three tabs (metadata, description of the data set, data table).

Wherever possible, correspondence relationships between two units are indicated. The four main relationships are presented below. For more information on the types of relationships and how to develop correspondences between habitats, refer to the following publications: Michez et al., 2012 ; Gaudillat & Louvel, 2015 ; La Rivière et al., 2023.
