The NFI Survey Manual describes the assessments made during field data collection and the protocols used by the field surveyors in collecting the data. The NFI Survey Manual is a living document and contains steadily more explanations. New versions will appear on this page as they are created.

Please email National Forest Inventory enquiries for a copy of the NFI Survey Manual for the 3rd cycle of field data collection. Manuals for earlier cycles are provided below for the purpose of supporting NFI reports; manuals for the earlier cycles should not be used to support fieldwork in the 3rd cycle.
