Abstract
National summaries of Forest resource data must be improved in quality and quantity, and they must be more location-specific. To meet the last requirement, a simple, consistent, accurate and computer-compatible geographic referencing system is needed. The 10 km Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid referencing system fills this need. The paper describes the concept and the use of the UTM grid system, and outlines the proposed application to referencing forest resource data in Canada.
