"Mapping Forestry" describes how GIS software supports the business of forestry in today's era of economic changes, increased global competition, and diminishing resources. Foresters from the United States, Brazil, Romania, Finland, and Cambodia share how they use GIS to manage commercial operations and maintain sustainable stewardship.

Forest managers describe how computer-generated maps and GIS analysis help them determine the best places to build roads, whether logging in a particular area is commercially feasible, which fire-damaged areas should be restored first, and more. "Mapping Forestry" contains 19 chapters featuring detailed descriptions and full-color maps, making it an excellent tool for forestry professionals.
