Maps On-Line Evaluator (MOLE), allows users to create customized maps for online display and analysis using various combinations of FIA data and other topographic data, including roads, streams and water bodies, digital elevation, and land cover data.
The Southern On Line Estimator (SOLE) is an Internet-based database analysis tool developed cooperatively by NCASI and the U.S. Forest Service Southern Research Station. SOLE performs tabular, chart, linear model and map analyses on annual Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) data made publicly available through the FIA database (FIADB). A related tool developed by NCASI, Maps On Line Evaluator (MOLE), allows users to create customized maps for online display and analysis using various combinations of FIA data and other topographic data, including roads, streams and waterbodies, digital elevation, and land coverage data.
NCASI supports multiple field research projects initiated to clarify survey methods, determine spotted owl responses to uneven-aged forest management, and evaluate spotted and barred owl responses to vegetation composition and structure from Washington through western Oregon and northern California.
