HI Nicolas,
I am putting together a paper that covers this now... it has to do with
statistical (spatial) point pattern analysis and using that to uncover
habitat interactions for forestry. If you are interested, I can send you a
link to the paper when I get through.

Hi Russ,
Thanks for your elements, I look forward to your whitepaper or any format
you will find appropriate to wrap up your thoughts from this last and
important deployment. I think that your proposal of extensions to other
related fields of study and practices make sense and can help out pulling
out more thoughtful mapping documents around mapping rural areas in
Developed Countries (DCs) and Least Developped Countries (LDCs) which is
where my request is based.
Excellent day.
Best,
Nicolas

Hello Nicolas,
** **
Once our wildfire season (in Colorado, U.S.) slows down, I will be
writing up a ‘case-study’/whitepaper on the response to
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2013_Colorado_Wildfire_Season - I
will make sure to forward any documents, etc. directly to you. Just FYI,
this was my field of study in college: Forestry, concentrated in Forest
Fire Science with a minor in Spatial Information Management Systems, so I
have lots of ideas how OSM could be used in these fields, but I’m still
working on locking down a user/use-case study. I have reached out to the
U.S. Forest Service and (U.S.) National Wildfire Coordination Group
regarding the above and have had some initial feedback that my information
would be forwarded to the incident commander for the East Fork Fire. I
assume that as IC, that person is probably too busy to reach out while
firefighting; I hope as things slow-down that I will get a chance to make
the case for OSM and/or HOT for future firefights.

I also wonder if you shouldn’t expand your inquiry to all Natural
Resource fields; i.e. rangeland, wildlife, ecosystems, watersheds, etc.
You may get a broader response, and at least in the U.S. these things are
typically done separately/by different organizations.

Thank you for your interest,

Hey all-
** **
I'd be interested into hearing about uses of OSM and similar technologies
tied to GIS in Forestry;

Thanks in advance for any references
Excellent day to all,
