  2. 1. Definition of forest: the current forest definition is not consistent with international standards, a new forest definition needs to be defined (e.g. NFA definition) • 2. Different forest types (4 biophysical types and 2 main land tenure types) => all of them have to be monitored and inventoried • 3. Forest department, DC, BFIDC and private sector have the mandate to manage those forests • 4. There is not system for data sharing (no common platform for data sharing, no archiving system)

  3. 5. There is no quality control of the data, verification of the data is performed within the organization. • 6. There are different forest cover maps available from 1985, country level map performed in 2005 • 7. Survey of Bangladesh and SPARRSO have the mandate to map the land use/ cover. Forest department has the mandate to map the forest land area

  4. 8. The data provided are not effectively used for the implementation of the forest policies • 9. The main constraints for the forest monitoring system are: funding (acquisition of satellite imageries), skilled capacities, country level logistic • 10. Several forest inventories were achieved. One national forest inventory. Inventory results are not comparable and are inconsistent (different methodologies were used).

  5. 11. The main constraints for the NFA are: • Funding, logistic support, capacity, awareness, common platform and data sharing. • 12. Incompatibility between the NFA data collection and remote sensing analysis. • 13. The achievement of the Greenhouse Gas Inventory is limited by the human capacities and funding. Need re-organization and permanent staffs.
