Scope of WIS.2

WIS.2 focuses on providing guidance in sustainable forestry management. The system gives strong organisational and decision support in implementing, monitoring and controlling silvicultural practices. The system provides specific information for the different phases of the silvicultural process, allowing planners to simulate the mid- to long-term consequences of various action scenarios, and supporting users in solving complex silvicultural problems at multiple scales (i.e., from the whole enterprise level down to the single stand level; from very long-term to short-term). The scope of WIS.2 includes:

  • formalising the manifold demands of society, forest owners and stakeholders for implementation in forest management;
  • defining different variations of silvicultural strategy and implementation concepts, in order to assess the entrepreneurial strategy and recognize the mid- to long-term consequences;
  • pointing out the priority-
