Mapping & Information Management

The computer software programs that provide the technology to create maps electronically are called Geographic Information Systems (GIS). These mapping systems have several key advantages over previously used techniques. The ability to accurately and efficiently delineate boundaries associated with areas of interest, store data pertaining to these features, and manipulate and/or display this stored information makes these systems extremely powerful tools.

HFC Foresters possess the knowledge, ability, and formal training to use these mapping and information systems to generate accurate, informational maps. These maps and the associated information serve as dynamic management tools to aid in critical decision-making processes. Whether you own 50 acres or 50,000 acres, HFC can provide you with accurate and affordable mapping services for your forest property.

The maps that we are able to create at Henderson Forestry Consultants serve as more than simple visual aids and navigation tools. Our Forest Management Maps, in addition to satisfying tasks more traditionally associated with maps, such as delineating areas wherein silvicultural operations are prescribed, include reports on the forest stands within your property. While these reports can be tailor-made to suit your specific forest management objectives, they often include the last silvicultural operation that took place within their boundaries, the next scheduled activity, each stand’s age, species composition, and corresponding acreage.


The standard Forest Management Maps that are included with Forest Management Plans include:
