Description

Project Background: Alberta Forestry and Parks (FP) is responsible for forest planning, which involves the creation, review or approval of forest management plans. These plans incorporate the forest policy reflected in the Alberta Forest Management Planning Standard as well as the policies seen in Alberta’s regional and subregional plans created by Environment and Protected Areas (EPA). FP planners are expected to provide policy interpretation and refinement, along with forest management direction from both senior leadership and from subject matter experts to industry. Various briefing materials and action requests are used in this process to ensure accuracy and consistency. To support the planners, FP analysts rely on a variety of data when performing analysis related to briefing materials.
