Assessing tree canopy and above ground structures

Assessing the tree canopy and above-ground structures. Take a photo from Location A and B that captures the extent of the foliage. Take multiple images if necessary, indicating the general direction of view. Complete the following assessment of the canopy, providing additional information of photo-documentation where appropriate.
Link to this table.

Defoliation: a relative amount of needles or leaves are missing from the canopy as compared to a reference tree.
Is there any level of defoliation noted?	____ Yes ____ No
If defoliation is present, estimate the percent defoliation
Describe the location, relative area (ft2) of the defoliation, percent canopy/leaf loss (% of whole area), and any other notable information regarding each defoliation area noted from visual assessment at Locations A and B. Take photographs as necessary, noting the general direction of view.
Apical Shoot Architecture: the architecture of the most recent growth of branches in the canopy where the majority of leaves are located and arranged. Answer all of the following questions when examining the apical shoot architecture from Locations A and B and then rate the tree on the following scoring system for the Apical Shoot Architecture.
What is the estimated length of a typical apical shoot (inches)?
What is the color of the typical apical shoot?	___ Light brown ___ Dark brown ___ Green ___ Yellow ___ Red ___ Other (specify)
Is there any presence of the following in the apical branch growth? Mark all that apply, and indicate general location of the noted issues.	___ spear-shaped twigs ___ short twigs ___ lack of bud structures (dormant season only for deciduous trees) ___ a large numbers of twigs emerging from the tips of the next lower level of branching ___ a lack of branch growth in one area or on one side of the tree
Desribe any of the noted issues.
