New Brunswick Forestry Information

The New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources and Energy maintains large databases of forestry information on its provincial forests. The information is stored on Geographic Information Systems (G.I.S. for short) which include a combination of electronic maps and databases which contain information about the features located on the maps.


Harvey High School Woodlot

St Anne-Nackawic Pulp Company Ltd has agreed to allocate a parcel of land to the Harvey High School to use as a forestry demonstration site and for teaching purposes in woodlot management courses offered at the school. The approximate location of the woodlot has been determined, however the precise boundaries of the woodlot have yet to be established

The preceding page showed land use North of Harvey Lake and the location of the Harvey High School woodlot. More detailed information can be obtained by using G.I.S. software. A link is provided below to forestry exercises using data for the area north of Harvey Lake that includes the Harvey High School woodlot. If your are viewing this page from a CD-ROM, links are provided to the data, unfortunately, if you are viewing this page over the internet, this data is not available.

For those unfamiliar with the use of ArcExplorer, tutorial exercises on the use of the software are available. Additionally, exercises in the use of information from the Harvey High School woodlot are available below. If you have never used ESRI's products in the past, the tutorial is strongly recommended.
