Abstract

Since the 1930s, the Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program of the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service has been tracking forest extent, health, vitality, and contributions to the national and global timber supply. Our field, office, and administrative staff are dedicated to helping foresters, wildlife biologists, universities, non-governmental organizations, Federal and State agencies, forest industry, and private landowners locate, analyze, and understand data related to our Nation's forest resources.
