FIA National User Group
In partnership with the National Council for Air and Stream Improvement (NCASI), SAF convenes annual meetings of partners and stakeholders from across the sector to discuss challenges and opportunities for using data generated by the USDA Forest Service Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program.
Recommendations and action items are developed and shared with FIA program leaders and the broader user community to build awareness, facilitate collaboration, and, ultimately, continue the work of using FIA data to improve management of the nation’s forests.

SAF and NCASI look forward to continuing their partnership in organizing and convening user group meetings focused on improving the FIA program. All the elements of the FIA program provide vital data for improving the management and monitoring the sustainability of the nation’s forests.
