To facilitate the review of datasets created for this report, GFWC has posted the datasets online on Data Basin (databasin.org).

Once you have an account, please send an email to review@globalforestwatch.ca to request access to the GFWC Castle review materials. Once in the GFWC Castle workspace, you can layer the datasets in a map and turn the datasets on and off to review them.
