Gross biological volume - hardwood (GBVHWD) is an expression of in-the-tree stem hardwood volume (m3) on a per-hectare basis. Calculated from the ground to the tip. Available here as a raster (GeoTIF) with a 20 m pixel resolution.

Download: Here The Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment, Forest Service Branch, has developed a forest resource inventory (FRI) which meets a variety of strategic and operational planning information needs for the boreal plains. Such needs include information on the general land cover, terrain, and growing stock (height, diameter, basal area, timber volume and stem density) within the provincial forest and adjacent forest fringe. This inventory provides spatially explicit information as 10 m or 20 m raster grids and as vectors polygons for relatively homogeneous forest stands or naturally non-forested areas with a 0.5 ha minimum area and a 2.0 ha median area.  Gross biological volume per hectare - hardwood (GBVHWD) is an expression of in-the-tree stem hardwood volume (m3) on a per-hectare basis. Calculations are made from the ground to the tip. GBVHWD is available here as a color-mapped 16-bit unsigned integer raster grid in GeoTIFF format with a 20 m pixel resolution. An ArcGIS Pro layer file (*.lyrx) is supplied for viewing GBVHWD data in the following 50 m3/ha categories. Domain: [NULL, 0…1000].
