Analysis of Pooled FIA and Remote Sensing Data for Fiber Supply Assessment at the Warnell School of Forest Resources at the University of Georgia - Other Studies and Effective Information Dissemination

Abstract

We provide here a short description of the origin, current work, and future outlook of the Fiber Supply Assessment program at the D.B. Warnell School of Forest Resources, University of Georgia, whose work includes various analyses of FIA data. Since 1997, the program has intended to assist the implementation of the new Southern Annual Forest Inventory System through related data analyses. Currently its projects include basic problems in theory of equations and parameter estimation and various analyses of ground inventories and remote sensing and GIS data. We describe some of these projects and associated software, hardware, and information dissemination problems and solutions.
