This initiative is also supported with software contributions from ESRI and Erdas.
Together, this information is assembled in the Interactive Forest Atlas of Cameroon - a complete cartographic database containing forest land use allocation in Cameroon. This poster represents a snapshot as of August 2012 of the Forest Estate's status from the Forest Atlas database.

DATA AND MAP PRODUCTION
(1) Develop an integrated and easy to access forest information management system based on standardized methods; and (2) Train MINFOF and forest sector NGO staff in remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS) and information analysis, in order to strengthen monitoring, management and decison-making around allocation and use of forest resources.
