FUSION is a suite of software developed by station scientists to visualize and analyze airborne lidar data. The visualization components display project data using a 2D display typical of geographic information systems (GIS). Users interact with...
Few people--even forestry professionals--can look at a data table describing the trees in a timber stand data and visualize what it tells them. What if they could look at pictures, instead of numbers? It is even harder to visualize...
The PNW-FIA Integrated Database (IDB) contains periodic inventory data collected by PNW-FIA, the National Forest System (NFS: Regions 4, 5 and 6), and the BLM for California, Oregon, and Washington. Dates of the inventories range from 1988 to...
The PNW-FIA Interior Alaska Forest Inventory and Analysis Database (PNW-FIADB) is a Microsoft (MS) Access database with a user-friendly interface. It contains forest inventory data for interior Alaska, many pre-built, easy to run queries,...
Fuel and Fire Tools.
FFT is a software application that integrates several fire management tools, including the Fuel Characteristic Classification System (FCCS – version 4.0), Consume (version 5.0), Fire Emission Production Simulator (FEPS – version 2.0), Pile...
The PNW-FIADB is available with a user-friendly Microsoft Access frontend and an SQLite backend. It contains forest inventory data for 4 western states (coastal Alaska, California, Oregon, and Washington), many pre-built easy to run queries,...

This Web-based model estimates growth of juvenile Chinook salmon in reservoirs under differing water management and climate change scenarios. Juvenile Chinook salmon normally rear in streams, but...
Natural fuels photo series site in the Southwest.
The Digital Photo Series is intended to complement, not replace, the paper and ink versions available now and in the future. While much of the 'look and feel' of the published photo series has been retained, the DPS...
The PNW-FIA Hawaii Inventory Database is a Microsoft Access database with a user-friendly front end. It contains forest inventory data for forest inventories of the Hawaiian Islands, many pre-built easy to run queries, database documentation, and...
Land managers needed a tool to accurately and efficiently estimated the biomass of hand-piled fuels as pile burning becomes a more widespread and common method for treating high fire hazard areas with heavy surface fuels. Past pile...
Bioregional Inventory Originated Simulation Under Management
Biosum provides simulation-based analytical tools that leverage data from FIA — the nation's forest census — to predict, and statistically summarize over multi-...
Forest Inventory and Analysis conducts resource inventories for the U.S. affiliated Pacific Islands of American Samoa, Guam, the Republic of Palau, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, and the...
The Forest Landscape Assessment Tool (FLAT) is a set of procedures and tools used to rapidly determine forest ecological conditions and potential threats. FLAT enables planners and managers to understand baseline conditions, determine and...
The Integrated Landscape Assessment Program (ILAP) produces consistent, integrated data and models to assess possible changes in vegetation, habitat, and economic conditions under different management scenarios over large landscapes. ILAP models...
This map shows the distribution of 22 elements found in moss samples collected by Forest Service scientists in Portland, Oregon. The interactive format allows the user to select data layers and view them over various basemaps such as aerial...

Vegetation and fuel management planning is a complex problem that requires advanced vegetation and fire behavior modeling and intensive spatial data analyses. Both the benefits and potential impacts of proposed treatments must be clearly...
Summer streamflows in the Pacific Northwest come mainly from snowmelt and ground-water discharge. As the climate warms, reduced snowpack and earlier snowmelt will cause reductions in summer streamflow, which can complicate forest management,...
TimeSync allows users to accurately characterize forest change at the plot level on an annual basis. It can be used across a range of spatial extents, from regional to continental. Researchers can characterize change, map accuracy, and provide...
