Abstract: Includes 96 papers presented at the conference Integrated Tools for Natural Resources Inventories in the 21st Century, August 16-20, 1998, in Boise, Idaho, USA. This conference drew several hundred forest inventory and related professionals from multiple organizational levels and over 30 foreign countries. Topics covered include those related to natural resource inventory design, analysis and management applications; measurement consistency issues; data management, GIS and remote sensing applications; forest growth model interfaces; and special purpose inventories and applications.
