Abstract

Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFP's) are the economic and social specialties of forests which are used by Tribal and Non-Tribal people for their shelter, food and medicine in different parts of the world. The use of remote sensing data, GIS and GPS provides a variety of forest resource management applications which enables decision makers and researchers to develop management plans. The present study is to identify the NTFP in Forest College and Research Institute (FCRI), Mulugu, Siddipet, Telangana and to map them using the Geo-spatial technology. The obtained data is categorized on the basis of their origin, scientific names, growing season and their end use.
