Abstract

Biomass Logistic and Trade Centres (BLTCs) are local or regional centres with optimised logistics and trading organization, where different woody bioenergy products (or heat) are marketed at standardised quality focusing on the domestic market uptake. It’s an innovative business model competitively operating as an intermediator to organise local woody bioenergy value chains between local biomass suppliers and customers of different scale from private households up to deliveries to heat and power plants. BioRES supported setting-up such BLTCs in Bulgaria, Croatia and Serbia.

Starting point are web-based marketing and sales platform with limited physical infrastructure. This can be successively extended into a BLTC with its own production, storage and logistics facilities when the local market reaches critical volumes allowing for the amortization of investments. In Slovenia, Austria, Germany and Finland BLTCs of different shape with own production, storage and logistic facilities are competitively operating. BioRES aims to setting up at least 6 – 8 new BLTCs in distributed over at least 2 of the 3 countries in Croatia, Serbia and Bulgaria during the project.

Mobilization Potential
High, through public, user-friendly, easily accessible information about the site conditions of forest areas in NRW. For forest owners or forestry contractors, fact-based forest management or planning of harvesting operations are supported.
Kind of wood concerned
All types of wood
Sustainability Potential
Data-based local, site-specific and individual support for sustainable forest management.
Impact on environment & biodiversity

The included map-based information on soil conditions, meteorological data, climate scenarios have been interlinked with the Reforestation Concept and the Forest Management Concept of the state NRW. Increasing biodiversity and forest resilience by introducing mixed, multi-cohort forest stands is at the core of these concepts which are based on specific, locally site-adapted "forest development types". The platform is public, available also on mobile devices and user friendly. The usability is constantly tested and improved.

Abstract

The internet portal Waldinfo.NRW offers comprehensive public information on the forests in North Rhine-Westphalia, their diverse functions and sustainable management. This primarily includes digital maps on various aspects of forests, forest management and the use of forests by the public. The topics covered by the various maps range from forest cover and forest ecology, forest management and forest nature conservation to recreational use, danger prevention and forest administration. The information provided is intended in particular to support forest owners in the adaptation of forest management to climate change. This also includes forest regeneration on the current large damaged areas. The selection of maps and the design of the user interface provide user-friendly access to the specialist information. The portal also refers to selected important specialist publications of the State Forestry Administration and further websites of the State Administration. The internet portal Waldinfo.NRW is an important component of the NRW Forest Information System and the NRW Forest Climate Adaptation Strategy. The digital offer of public forest information also corresponds to the Open Data process in North Rhine-Westphalia (Open.NRW).

Abstract

Le groupe opérationnel Forest-LidaRioja a été formé dans le but de développer un inventaire forestier et une carte du modèle de combustible de La Rioja en utilisant les technologies de télédétection.

Cet outil contribue à la mise en place d'une gestion durable des forêts en utilisant des données précises et actualisée comme support de décision pour mettre en place des actions spécifiques dans les zones forestières.

Ce projet a permis de développer des méthodologies et des processus pour l'intégration de différentes sources d'information (principalement le LiDAR aéroporté des données PNOA 2016 et les informations satellitaires OPTICA). Ces méthodes sont soutenues par le développement d'algorithmes qui corrèlent par des méthodes statistiques des données précises de terrain avec les données LiDAR, nécessitant la réalisation de parcelles forestières très bien calibrées et de mesures situées avec une précision sub-métrique dans des points stratégiques pour chaque espèce forestière et zone de travail.

Les principaux résultats du projet Forest-LidaRioja sont les suivants :

- Inventaire forestier des forêts de La Rioja.

- Cartographie des modèles de combustible de la zone forestière de La Rioja pour planifier les travaux de prévention des incendies de forêt.

- Étude de l'évolution des peupleraies de la région et de leur potentiel d'approvisionnement.

- Formation technique sur les produits générés pour les professionnels intéressés par leur utilisation pratique. 

Les produits générés sont ouverts au public afin que chacun puisse les télécharger et les utiliser.

Abstract
ll progetto ITFORII ha come obiettivo primario il superamento della difficoltà di commercializzazione della materia legno (problema individuato) da parte delle imprese forestali venete che, per mancanze strutturali e gestionali, nonché per le difficoltà attuali di recessione economica, si trovano a svendere e a non valorizzare economicamente il legname lavorato.
Il progetto è finalizzato alla creazione di un sistema modulare e multi-misura di offerta e vendita di legname da parte delle imprese boschive, sistema che, allo stesso tempo, vuole diventare un collettore e gestore di dati forniti dalle imprese. La piattaforma punterà ad essere il più possibile flessibile, adattandosi sia alle imprese forestali strutturate, sia alle imprese individuali e alle aziende agricole operanti nel settore foresta-legno. La piattaforma verrà successivamente gestita dalla rete delle Camere di Commercio della Regione Veneto garantendo trasparenza ed efficace al sistema di pubblicità e compravendita della materia legnosa.

Abstract
The project has as objective to overcome the difficulties in the trade of the timber resource. This problem was identified, by the forest enterprises of the region, in the lack of managment and in the economical crisis making forest enterprises unable to sell the timber at a proper price. The system aims to create a modular system and with different measure units of offers and sales from the forest enterprises directly. The platform that, simoultaneously, is able to collect all the data timber related thanks to on-site apps can provide useful services and to ensure the traceability of the timber. The platform will be malleable to forest enterprises requests.

Abstract
Il progetto riguarda il miglioramento dell’efficienza del produzione di energia da biocombustibili forestali, tramite il miglioramento logistico del processo di ottenimento del materiale. Il progetto prevede l’adozione di uno strumento per il supporto alla tracciabilità e alla valutazione della sostenibilità ambientale. L’obiettivo è quello di porre le basi concrete per il miglioramento dell'efficienza nell’organizzazione dei cantieri di raccolta e trasformazione delle biomasse e di conseguenza ridurre in modo significativo le emissioni di CO2 e di altri gas clima-alteranti prodotti durante le fasi di ottenimento della materia prima, movimentazione, lavorazione e di commercializzazione dei biocombustibili legnosi. Le attività daranno quindi poi come output l’assunzione ed il miglioramento delle pratiche utili alle imprese per garantire il monitoraggio dei flussi di materiale all’interno dei cantieri e dei centri logistici dell’azienda, nonché informazioni certificate rispetto all’impatto ambientale dell’azienda nel produrre il biocombustibile.

Abstract
L'outil de vente assistée par ordinateur (SYLVATRADE) est une plateforme créée à partir d'une base de données afin de générer des enregistrements standardisés de lots, et éditer des contrats. Elle est associée à la plateforme cartographique NEOSYLVAQ pour donner à l'acheteur un vue d'ensemble des lots, localiser et délimiter chaque parcelle sur une carte, accéder aux itinéraires et enfin faciliter l'organisation des visites de terrain. Au moment de la transaction, l'acheteur détient plusieurs informations sur la parcelle sur sa tablette numérique: situation géographique, cadastre, superficie, essences, densité de peuplement, certification ou non,..etc. L'acheteur a 30 secondes pour faire une offre. Un procédé informatique quasi-instantané donne la possibilité pour la salle entière de visualiser la meilleure offre et la somme. La gestion informatisée permet de traiter la vente d'environ 90 000m3 de bois en 2 heures. Le solde des ventes peut être réalisé par ordinateur et par essences, classe de volumes, et unités géographiques. Les ventes de groupes peuvent être suivies à distance sur internet, où sur place au moyen de tablette numériques. Les documents administratifs (contrats, billets à ordre,...) sont publiés à l'issue de la vente et signés par voie électronique à la sortie.

Abstract

El grupo operativo Forest-LidaRioja se ha constituido con el objetivo de desarrollar un inventario forestal y un mapa de modelos de combustible de La Rioja utilizando tecnologías de teledetección.

Entre las principales utilidades prácticas, destaca la importancia para la mejora de la gestión forestal sostenible, ya que con datos precisos y actualizados se pueden tomar mejores decisiones y planificar mejor las actuaciones en las zonas forestales.

Este proyecto ha permitido el desarrollo de metodologías y procesos para la integración de diferentes fuentes de información (principalmente LiDAR aerotransportado de datos PNOA 2016 e información satelital OPTICA). Estos métodos se apoyan en el desarrollo de algoritmos que correlacionan por métodos estadísticos los datos precisos del terreno con los datos LiDAR, requiriendo la realización de parcelas forestales muy bien calibradas y mediciones localizadas con precisión submétrica en puntos estratégicos para cada especie forestal y zona de trabajo.

Los principales resultados del Proyecto Forestal-LidaRioja son:

- Inventario forestal de los bosques de La Rioja.

- Cartografía de modelos de combustible de la zona forestal de La Rioja para planificar los trabajos de prevención de incendios forestales.

- Estudio de la evolución de las choperas de la región y su potencial de abastecimiento.

- Formación técnica sobre los productos generados para los profesionales interesados en su uso práctico. 

Los productos generados están abiertos al público para que cualquier persona pueda descargarlos y utilizarlos.
