Forestry Digital Services

Team Heartwood created the Forest Operations Map (FOM). FOM enables Forest Stewardship Plan (FSP) holders to show planned cutblocks and road developments. The goal is to improve public engagement on forest practices by opening them to public review and comment.

FOM is now operational, and the team continues to support and enhance it. Visit the FOM website to find, learn about, and comment on FOMs.

Watch How to use BC’s new Forest Operations Map (FOM) webtool for public commenting to learn how to use the map for commenting.
