Open Foris is a set of free open-source software tools that facilitate flexible and efficient data collection, analysis and reporting. These tools are used to support gathering, producing and disseminating reliable information on the state of forest resources that is vital to government decision makers and other stakeholders.
Emphasis is placed on building sustainable capacity through the free sharing of all tools, documentation and source-code, thus promoting self-sufficiency, transparency and vendor independence. In addition, open-source means Open Foris software’s inner workings are open to review by peers, promoting higher quality tools and encouraging and facilitating partner contributions.
