摘要：The Indianapolis Land Stewardship (ILS) team’s first restoration was in 1992 with high school students planting acorns in a 13-acre field.

This is accomplished through improved GIS tracking and mapping techniques. Additionally, scientific survey work has broadened from initially a few vegetation surveys to now include longer-duration studies and other taxa for a more balanced and complete assessment..
