Forest Inventory Tools Tools for planning and assessing forest inventories. ## 3. ARR Tools Tools designed to assist with the establishment of project and control plots, develop the performance benchmark for VM0047 projects ## 4. REDD+ Tools Tools designed to asssist with the development of: 1. Forest Cover Benchmark maps 2. Deforestation Risk models. ## 5. Fire tools Tools for characterising the fire histories and deriving metrics for calculating project performance in fire managment. ## 6. Case Studies The implementation of these tools are then showcased in the case studies folder, where detailed write ups of how the tools have been implemented within the context of actual TNC supported carbon projects throughout africa.
