Inventory/GIS
The Red Lake Forestry GIS / Inventory Department is responsible for the forest inventory and forest mapping services for the Red Lake Nation. A GIS database is maintained with general descriptions of the forest coverages on tribal lands, as well as several different sets of aerial photography of tribal and non-tribal lands. The forestry GIS department also provides inter-departmental mapping support to the Fire Program, Timber Sales and Forest Development departments. The inventory department also cooperates with some outside federal agencies to detect, and potentially manage, invasive forest pests.
