Welcome to the LRM self-training page
This page provides a series of short video tutorials on how to use the Land Resources Manager, the forest data management system used by TTG/TIG/BTG and other auxiliary systems.
[Individually training each new user or employee hired by TTG or other Forest Service Providers (FSPs) would require significant manpower resources that are not available. Therefore, this self-training page has been created to allow new users to become familiar with the system and for regular users to review topics they may have forgotten. Additionally, users can troubleshoot common problems themselves by following the corresponding training session below]
After completing the video training, please complete the form below and click the button to digitally sign your attendance.

How to Submit a Map Update ?
Map updates, inventory updates and estimates, Land sales spatial updates, silv and TS ops updates and anything related to record update should be submitted to ttg_edits@ttgforestry.com The “Blackout period” ? What’s that?
Blackout period is usually a period of 10 days prior of quarter-end where the staff hold off any new updates in the system in order to generate client reports without the daily fluctuation in the market value we normally observe due to regular operations. During it no map updates, inventory loads, TS contract closing or creation is allowed. Silviculture contract creation and payment requests are allowed. I need Support with LRM. What to do?
