11. Geospatial Technology Education.

Author

Wing, Michael G. and Sessions, John

Subjects
GEOGRAPHIC information systems, EDUCATIONAL programs, CURRICULUM, FORESTS & forestry, FORESTRY projects, LABOR supply, GLOBAL Positioning System, REMOTE sensing, EDUCATION
Abstract

The article examines the perceived importance of geospatial skills in the workforce and summarizes the geospatial education offered at the top 10 forestry programs in North America. It also investigates how one forestry curriculum provides geospatial instruction to undergraduate, professional certificate, and continuing education students. The potential challenges that geospatial education programs may encounter were identified as well as the technological developments that can make teaching activities more efficient for instructors and more accessible for students. According to the author, geospatial technology becomes a standard part of most forestry and natural resource operations with the use of global positioning systems, digital measurement instruments, and remote sensing platforms.

Abstract

The article focuses on the research "Evaluating the Salvage Value of Fire-Killed Timber by Helicopter-Effects of Yarding Distance and Time Since Fire," by Abdullah E. Akay, John Sessions, Pete Bettinger, Rick Toupin, and Aaron Eklund. It has been observed that large areas of federal lands in the western U.S. have been subject to wildfire. Helicopter logging is considered due to concerns of hastening restoration, soil disturbance and road building. To estimate the value of fire-killed timber as a function of time since death and yarding distance, a model is developed that uses helicopters as the preferred logging method.
