Forestry, if done incorrectly, can have a major global environmenatl impact – deforestation is one example.

Humans will always need houses and other goods produced using wood.

As stewards of the forests, environment and animals which call the forests of the world home, many countries and regions have developed strict guidelines or Codes of Forest Practices.

Based within one of the largest rainforests in the world, the forest sector is one of IGI’s main areas of expertise.

Applications of our geospatial data in the forestry sector include:

• Timber inventory and management
• Watershed management
• Habitat monitoring
• Annual allowable cut determination
• Access road planning
• 3D viewshed analysis
• Forest Operations
• Fire behaviour modeling
• Public consultation maps
