Abstract:
This report describes the general use and various functionality of the county based INFORM online software that displays USDA Forest Service FIA data summaries. The development of this software was sponsored by the USDA Forest Service Southern Research Station FIA Unit. The webpages were developed by the Fiber Supply Assessment program team at the Warnell School of Forest Resources, UGA, as a result of collaboration between the members of this program and various members of the USDA Forest Service FIA Unit. The webpages display county scale forest statistics and enable those unfamiliar with the FIA datasets to quickly evaluate FIA forest inventory summaries relating to volume, biomass, number of trees, land area and other forestry data.
