Modernizes the Forest Inventory and Analysis program to enhance data collection and reporting on forest carbon.
The Forest Data Modernization Act of 2025 amends the Forest and Rangeland Renewable Resources Research Act of 1978 to update the Forest Inventory and Analysis program. It mandates the Forest Service to establish an office or data platform to handle complex data requests from external organizations, potentially charging fees for these services. The bill requires the Forest Service to include a clear definition of 'forest' in all reports and data.
