information system

Boletus informaticus is a public information system for the recording and mapping of fungi in Slovenia. It consists of a central database of fungi in Slovenia, a web, mobile and desktop application, and a Mycotheca and Herbarium of Slovenian Forestry Institute. The information system Boletus informaticus is the result of cooperation between Slovenian Forestry Institute, Mycological Association of Slovenia, and Institute for systematics of higher fungi.

The significant increase in the number of forestry contractors in last few years has been increasing competition, however at the same time requires a reflection on the objective quality of contractors. In sustainable management of forests, the criterion for the selection of contractor should not be only the lowest service price, but it should include also environmental, social and business aspects of the relationship between the client and the contractor. Platform MojGozdar (MyForester) enables the integration of all stakeholders in the forest-wood value chain, including providers of forestry services, users of services (forest owners, forest managers) and administrators of basic data bases about business entities. It is a transparent and objective web-based information system for assessing the suitability of contractors, who perform work in the forest. The methodology for evaluating is consisted of an automatic assessment of the formal suitability of the forestry contractors and direct evaluation of the service by consumers.
