Policy
CIFOR's Forest Spatial Information Catalog (FSIC) provides users with easy access to Geospatial data. We aim to serve a diverse community of users and encourage users to direct others to the FSCI archive, allowing them access to our data as well as an opportunity to take advantage of our services and technical and scientific expertise.
Policy for use of FSIC products
Data from this archive are provided on a non-discriminatory basis to be used primarily for scientific research, educational and other non profit applications or for illustration in publications.
Users of FSIC data will NOT duplicate data for the purpose of resale.
We request that when FSIC users share their acquisitions with others they seek prior permission from CIFOR User Services. The user should provide a brief description of the intended use of the data and the contact information of the "new" user. This information will be used to track our data information systems and services metrics, and hopefully, will allow us to serve the community more efficiently and effectively.
We request all users provide CIFOR with regular reports on how the data has been used, any publications which result, signficant applications or other such outcomes. This helps us tabulate metrics for our funding agencies as well as make improvements to our system.
