  • The object inherits from class "sl_stand".

  • The top-level components trees, sensors, cells, core_polygon, transform, geometry and inventory are present.

  • The trees data.frame passes check_inventory.

  • The sensors data.frame passes check_sensors.

  • The cells data.frame contains columns x_center, y_center, z_center, and id_cell.

  • The geometry list contains cell_size, n_cells_x, n_cells_y, slope, aspect, and north2x.
