The National Forest Inventory in Korea began in 1972, and thereafter has been conducted on a regular basis approximately at 10 year intervals. The purpose of the NFI was mainly to provide basic information on the forest resources. From the 5th NFI, the inventory program has been improved, moving from periodic to annual inventory system to meet increasing demands for reliable forest information from international processes and conventions. The new NFI design focuses on assessing and monitoring the extent and state of forest resources in Korea on accurate and timely manner. The transition has required conceptual and technical changes in inventory program, and has the following core elements ; annual inventory at 5 year intervals, systematic layout of 4,000 permanent sample plots, new ground plot design, remeasurement strategy, collaborative implementing framework, etc. In this presentation shows the major outcomes from 5rh and 6th NFI Koreas.
