Abstract

The National Forest Pest Strategy (NFPS) identified the need for a common framework for the compilation, sharing and synthesis of forest pest data and information. In response, work has been underway developing a national forest pest data system.

This report summarizes information collected from NFPS partners to guide the development of a national Pest Strategy Information System (PSIS). It also describes the prototype PSIS developed from this information, the current status of the system’s development, and the next steps required to complete the PSIS.
