Vegetation is holding me down

My entire paper is essentially complete except for formatting. Well, aside from the fact that it’s becoming a nuisance trying to find a way to represent the vegetation in the creek. Because the vegetation surveys that I did were at a different number system than the topographical surveys; the data shows vegetation in areas that, in the topographical surveys, could be on top of a rock or on the side of a cut bank. I underestimated the necessary precision for fluvial geomorphology. The slightest difference within the graphed cross-sections could represent a huge portion of data: a moved rock, a larger thalweg, a new thalweg, build up of debris. However, it seems so simple, but at the same time a waste of time, to eliminate my vegetation data and simply post pictures.
