Forest Inventory

Forest inventory is a systematic process used to gather detailed information about a forest's characteristics. It involves measuring and recording data such as tree species, sizes, age, health, and distribution. This information helps forest managers understand the forest’s condition, track changes over time, and make informed decisions about sustainable management, conservation, and resource use. Think of it as a detailed “forest check-up” that provides the essential data needed to balance ecological health with economic needs, ensuring forests remain healthy and productive for the future.
