For many of us who found our way into forestry as a career, spending our childhood outdoors in the woods or working in the field within nature was a fundamental part of developing that interest.
Whether it was canoeing on the lake at the family cottage, conducting field research for an undergraduate thesis, or planting trees in the summer, those experiences were vital in shaping our career paths and passions.
Forest fires are an important driving force in forest structure, composition, and merchantability. Effective forest management planning is essential for mitigating the impacts of wildfires so that forest managers can protect their forest resource and its users.

Forestry companies strive to manage their forests to ensure their health and longevity, but this can be a challenge when taking into account factors that transcend management area boundaries.
One key factor that forest managers must consider is the detection, management, and control of pest outbreaks. Pests such as mountain pine beetle, spruce budworm, and emerald ash borer occur at varying rates in forests across Canada and can decimate tree populations, moving from forest stand to forest stand and leaving dead, damaged, and unmerchantable trees in their wake. Early detection is critical to the control and management of pest outbreaks in our forests.
Read on to discover how Silvacom utilizes remote sensing technology, careful planning processes, and expert analysis to assist forestry companies in detecting, controlling, and managing pest outbreaks in Canadian forests.
