No native writing system was known among North American Indians at the time of first European contact.

Please explain the type of evidence you could gather that would tell you American Indians thought intentional burning was a good idea and part of their planned forest management.

From what I'm reading on your link the evidence is evidence of fires burning things down, thus the Indians had an advanced forest management system in place.
