Title: ForestryImages.org: High resolution image archive and web-available image system
Description: Abstract
ForestryImages.org: The Source for Forest Health and Silviculture Images http://www.ForestryImages.org/. Over 4,500 photographs and other images of more than 800 insects, diseases, plants, wildlife, and management practices taken by over 170 photographers are available. Most images were digitized from high-resolution 35mm slides. Multiple levels of jpeg format images are downloadable and may be copied and used for any non-profit, educational purpose with
appropriate credit and copyright notice. Although most images are of North American forested systems and species, there are many images from other areas of the world in the system as well. The images are in this system to be used!
ForestyImages.org utilizes a fully searchable, relational database-driven system to track and provide scientific, descriptive and photographic credit information. Several search and browse options are available to help locate images, including: scientific and common names, and “key word” searches of descriptive information about the image.
ForestryImages.org is an ongoing project supported by The USDA Forest Service, Forest Health Technology Enterprise Team and Washington Office, Forest Health Protection Staff, many images and new features will be added in ensuing months.
