USGS Global Forest Observations Initiative (GFOI) Peru

The Global Forest Observations Initiative (GFOI) is an initiative of the inter-governmental Group on Earth Observations (GEO) that aims to:

foster the sustained availability of observations for national forest monitoring systems; support governments that are establishing national systems by providing a platform for coordinating observations, providing assistance and guidance on utilising observations, developing accepted methods and protocols, and promoting ongoing research and development; and work with national governments that report into international forest assessments (such as the global Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) of the Food and Agriculture Organization, FAO) and the national greenhouse gas inventories reported to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) using methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

全球森林观测倡议（GFOI）系地球观测政府间小组（GEO）的一项倡议，旨在：促进国家森林监测系统观测数据的持续可用性；支持建立国家系统的政府，通过提供一个协调观测的平台，提供利用观测数据的协助与指导，开发公认的方法和协议，并推动持续的研究与发展；并与向国际森林评估报告的国家政府（如联合国粮食及农业组织（FAO）的全球森林资源评估（FRA））以及向联合国气候变化框架公约（UNFCCC）报告的国家温室气体清单使用政府间气候变化专门委员会（IPCC）的方法进行合作。
