Nova Scotia is home to a wide range of forestry data resources—from GIS layers to long-term monitoring programs like the Permanent Sample Plot (PSP) System. But many in the field aren’t fully aware of what’s available or how to apply it in their day-to-day operations.

Hosted by our friends at the Nova Scotia Economic Task Force, this free 1-hour webinar features forestry data expert Kari Easthouse, who recently completed a comprehensive review of Nova Scotia’s forest data landscape. He’ll walk us through:

• What datasets and tools are already available
• How this information can support sustainable, ecological forestry and restoration
• Opportunities to integrate new technologies like satellite imagery, LiDAR, drones, and machine learning
• Actionable ways to put data to work in forest planning, management, and decision-making

Whether you’re a forest manager, landowner, industry professional, or policymaker, this webinar will help you better understand the tools at your fingertips—and how to use them to your advantage.
