FSC NZ on the Map

FSC-certified forests can be found worldwide, demonstrating best practices in responsible forestry and upholding our collective mission of Forests For All, Forever.

FSC has been collecting maps to identify certified operations across the globe, enabling you to better envision our global impact. We also understand that forest managers may have unique conditions and desire confidentiality of this data, so, will not be shown on these maps.

FSC on the Map

The FSC uses interactive GIS maps to make it easy to identify and visualise data relating to forest boundaries, certificate details, management entities, and so much more. This information is updated regularly on a voluntary basis.

If you wish to contribute to the map with new certified locations, please follow this link to the platform where you can register and contribute to the maps. All files provided must meet the data requirements in this template. The registration on the platform is subject to terms and conditions, and contribution to the map is subject to a license agreement to ensure authorised use of data by FSC.

Upon contribution, our qualified staff will validate the correctness of the data as a pre-condition to the publication of the files. Publication may take up to two weeks, provided that the data submitted is correct.

Contributing strongly to the 'FSC on the Map' project, our New Zealand forest managers are represented below. This map provides easy access to data on our FSC-certified forests in New Zealand and is colour coded for simple differentiation between boundaries.
