wood mobilization

Recent land use changes have led to the abandonment of rural forest areas in Spain. The Rustic Property Management Platform helps manage plots, connect owners, and facilitate transactions, offering tools for inventory, profitability, and fire risk analysis.

The Wood Assortments Map offers parcel-level details, serving as a support tool for forest managers within the project to quantify the potential value of the forest.

The PRI.FOR.MAN project developed a Decision Support System for shared forest management, using national forest inventory and LiDAR data to map resources.

The OG-FOR.TRACK project developed a modular Decision Support System to simplify Precision Forestry practices, transferring research-based methods to forestry companies using GIS, remote sensing, spatial modeling, and algorithms integrated into Decision Support Systems.

In the context of the GO-SURF project, an algorithm has been developed to link the forest road network, slope data, and distance from the roads to create maps assessing the accessibility of each forest parcel.

The Do.Na.To project tested a rapid method for analysing Douglas fir roundwood in order to classify its timber for structural uses, in order to create the conditions for a more profitable use of Douglas fir in Italy.

The "La forêt bouge" platform targets forest owners and professionals in forestry and wood industry and to promote contact between the various stakeholders (private, economic or institutional).

A geodatabase was created and to centralise forest data that can be queried for different administrative levels, enabling also data sharing between stakeholders.

The OG PRI.FOR.MAN has developed different forest geographic layers that describe forest resources (growing stock volume, forest types, accessibility, and forest roads maps) implemented in a decision support system tool, providing support to the forest sector and emergence of new value chains.

The mobile app complements the web application, allowing users to register a plot and make five different records. Tree count can be done automatically or manually using augmented reality. It helps estimate wood supply, track felled trees, and manage felling paths for better control.
